When you choose a pair of reading glasses, a qualified frame is quite critical. As for children, it is more important. They cannot tell if the glasses are improper, so parents usually think they don’t like wearing glasses because they are naughty.

Therefore, it is most necessary to consider several aspects before selecting kids glasses:

Kids' eyeglasses holder must be light. Generally, the weight of kids' eyeglasses would be appropriately from 13 grams to 19 grams. Child’s head differs a lot from that of adult’s, especially their degree of nose and curvature of nose bridge. Therefore, to select frames for children, you need to observe their face features like the height of the nose and the breadth of the face. As most kids' nasal bridges are rather low and their nasal bones are not completely grown, frame with high nose pads or adjustable nose pads are right choice. Otherwise, if the nose pads are too low the frame will touch the face or the lash that would cause the eyeglasses unable to be worn. Besides, it is better to buy kids glasses with hangers which can wind around the back of head with elastic. The band shouldn’t be too loose in case that the glasses slide down from kid’s head.

Generally, there are various styles and colors for kids eyeglasses frames, and they also pay much attention to the choice of frames. Meanwhile, their pursuit of beauty is no less than that of adults. To choose glasses for children have to consider the practical use. Lots of children are naughty, and it happens a lot about being hurt by the broken glasses. Therefore, the best lenses are hard resin lenses and the best frames are plastic frames. It is suitable when affixing the nose well. In addition, the diopter of children's eyes change quickly, they often need to have new glasses about one year, plastic frames are comparative benefit in an economic point of view.

The metal frame is not suitable for children, for the nose pad of metal frame could incur the oversensitive and pressure on nasal bone. And if the bracket of metallic frame is inaccurate adjusted, it will cause more serious press to nasal bone. In addition, the metal frame easily deforms, distorts and breaks, all of which will affect appearance and performance. But the plastic frame is a more reasonable choice for children spectacle frame, for the plastic frame is too hard to be damaged easily. If you like the metal frame, you’d better not choose perforated frame and semi-frame, because these two kinds of frames are easy to be damaged.

Children's glasses frames should be sufficient area of vision, because the area of children playing is very wide. So please don't choose the frame which could produce the shade and dead angle of line of sight as possible as you can. Meanwhile, avoid of too large frame or too long angle of frame stand.
