Leading eyeglass manufacturers have upgraded styles giving smaller faces more options. There has never before been more fashion choices in women’s sunglasses for petite faces. For smaller people who have been dissatisfied with over-sized lenses, earpieces that were simply too long and frames that were always a bit too wide, selections are available to solve those problems. No longer do you have to settle for eyewear that just doesn’t fit right.
Knowing what to look for is key to selecting the right shape, style and frame to fit a smaller face and head. Sunglass shoppers should look for narrow fit eyewear with a lens diameter of less than 50mm. When comparing frames, measurements appear as three numbers separated by hyphens, the first number indicating the diameter of a single lens.
