Spectacles: One item you shouldn’t buy online

Today you have the convenience of buying anything and everything – online. 

From books to clothes to groceries to furniture to land and houses, etc.

Most of the items you buy may be what you expected it to be. Then there are those rare occasions where you are disappointed and end up with something you didn’t expect. There are customised items that need to be bought in person. Spectacles are one such item. 

You are unique! Just as your face and your facial features. 

The same spectacle frame will not fit two individuals the same way. Spectacles are so distinctive. The reason why ‘that’ beautiful pair of frames you see on the web or on display at an opticians’ is not as good as you thought when you actually try it on. Unlike clothes the spectacles cannot be decided on the sizes that are marked on the frames. Multiple frames of the same size may end up fitting completely differently on your face. 

If your spectacle prescription is more than average, you will need to see into more factors before selecting your spectacle frames. If not, you may end up with spectacles that look larger than your face or that are too small on you, making a spectacle of yourself.

Certain measurements should be taken in person before making a pair of spectacles. Whether it is for a single vision lens, a bifocal lens or a varifocal lens. The correct measurements are important for the spectacles to be accurate. This will affect the physical comfort and the mental satisfaction of the wearer. Wearing the most expensive lenses with the best of coatings will not be comfortable if the measurements and fitting is not precise. 

Therefore, it is ideal to try on the frames and get expert advice before you buy them! The pair of spectacles that look very good on your friend or colleague will rarely look the same on you. After selecting the best fitting spectacle frame and fixing the lenses, the frames have to be adjusted to custom fit your face. Adjusting an ill-fitting pair of spectacles to custom fit your face is almost an impossible task. No matter how many adjustments are done, an ill-fitting frame will not be comfortable on your face.
