How You Can Look Younger with Reading Glasses

As we age, we tend to encounter common visual problems such as Presbyopia. Presbyopia not only reduces the focusing ability of your eyes, but also creates difficulty with reading text messages and other small print. In general, this problem arises around or after the age of forty. Unfortunately, the worst part is that you can't really escape presbyopia, even if you have never had any visual problems in your lifetime.

To overcome this new vision problem, you may need to rely on reading glasses. In many cases, reading glasses will become your most important accessory after the age of 40. Unfortunately, most of us end up using some conventional, outdated, and unfashionable eyeglasses that make one look older and aged. If this is the case, now is the time to switch your outdated and old-fashioned eyeglasses with trendy, great looking reading glasses for a more youthful look.

Keep reading to find out how you can choose the right reading eyewear to achieve a more youthful look.

1. Frame Style

Needless to mention, reading glasses have now become an important fashion accessory. To get a young and fashionable look, wear stylish and trendy eyeglass frames. Choose frame styles that enhance your look and complement your face. The classic frame designs have already become outdated over time; thus, keep changing your eyeglass frames as fashion trends are constantly changing.

2. Frame Size

Choosing the right size of your eyewear frames is also quite important. Please note, you should choose a frame size that complements your facial structure and features. Nowadays, larger, bolder, and brighter frames have become a popular fashion trend as they tend to enhance the natural beauty of your eyes and make you look younger (and hide the under eye bags!).

3. Frame Shape

The right frame shape can actually make you look more youthful! While choosing the frame shape, ensure that it suits your face shape. For example, upswept frames visually lift your face and help you look younger.

4. Frame Color

A colorful frame can excellently enhance the natural beauty of your eye color and add a subtle warmth to your face. The best part is -- you'll have a plethora of color choices and patterns to select an ideal frame for you. While choosing the frame color, don't forget to keep a note of your hair color, skin complexion, clothing, and personality.

5. UV Protection

The last tip is all about protecting your eyes from harmful UV radiation and preventing wrinkles/fine lines around your eyes. Since the skin around your eyes is extremely delicate and tends to develop wrinkles/discoloration from cumulative UV damage, squinting can also encourage wrinkles. UV radiation in itself causes serious eye diseases, and even cancers, so do make sure that your reading glasses come with UV filtering lenses.
