MATCHMAKER, MATCHMAKER, MAKE ME A MATCH! Here's the secret to match frame shapes to your face.

Picking eyeglasses for some is a chore! So what works, and what doesn't? Let's provide you with some positive momentum so that picking prescription glasses next time around will turn into a fun and exciting exercise!

How? First, let's introduce you to the FACE | FRAME THEORY. A set of principles that optical professionals and dispensing assistants like to develop with each and every customer to curate ideas for you to make spectacle frame selections. And we get that picking glasses comes down to personal choice, individual taste, and budget. But, within that framework (see what I did there...?) is the concept behind matching frames to every face.

So, how do you pick the right frames for your face?

Keep reading to discover how a team member at Island Optical will take you step-by-step through the FACE | FRAME THEORY process!

DID YOU KNOW? Your face shape falls into one of several face-shape types! Referring to the FACE | FRAME THEORY, the form of your eyeglasses should offer a contrast with the shape of your face.

SUGGESTION: Take a selfie, or grab a hand-held mirror—let's IDENTIFY your face shape!

There are 5 basic face shapes:

Round - Rounded faces often feature full cheeks and soft jaw lines and lack strong angular lines. Think 'soft-square' shaped frames that hold back on sharp lines and frame styles that don't rest on the cheeks. You'll enjoy glasses styles that amplify your good-natured and kind bearing.

Square - Square-shaped faces feature a wide jaw-line and square chin, complimenting a broad forehead shape. Definitely consider slightly narrower frame styles for a balanced look, and soften the natural features of your face with outlines that match your eyebrow line. Thin frame styles may assist in creating a look that won't feel 'heavy,' either.

Oval - People with oval face shapes are lucky ducks. Just about any frame shape will suit you, what with your softly rounded forehead and chin regions and balanced proportions from brow to cheek to chin. Consider being adventurous with colour and shape in your glasses choices - angular, bold, symmetrical shapes are worth experimenting with - with confidence, you'll own the room every time!

Heart - What is a heart-shaped face, I hear you ask? Refer to your selfie or your reflection in the mirror for a moment. If your face is widest across the forehead region, narrowing gently below your cheeks into a soft point towards the chin, you have a heart-shaped face! Working with the natural contours of this shape, opt for frames that are wider through the temples or incorporate strong brow line shapes (think Cat-Eye shapes or frame styles that channel the Wayfarer style!).

Triangle - Do we still need to describe your face shape? Consider the triangle. A triangle face will be the widest through the jaw, developing narrow proportions up to the forehead. Consider frames that incorporate strong shapes and definable width through the temples. Cat-Eye frame shapes can work well here if you feel up to the challenge from the personality side of things. For men with a triangle face, we'd suggest exploring round shapes that create great lines to flatter the natural triangle shape.

We refer to the 'theory' of selecting spectacle frames as they provide a starting point for spectacle frame choices. If you feel like the FACE | FRAME THEORY impinges on your fashion frame freedoms, by all means, don't feel pressured to change your process.

The FACE | FRAME THEORY is just that—a theory—after all.

Current trends and pop culture may influence frame choices. Strong prescriptions and the anatomy of prominent facial features also have a bearing on successful optical outcomes.

With so many choices available, picking the perfect pair of glasses can seem daunting. However, you can pinpoint options by keeping your face shape in mind. So feel free to experiment until you find your perfect frames!

Lastly, interestingly, and a little ironically, our friends and family get used to seeing us in our new glasses more readily than we – the wearers – often do. So, why not get friends or family involved? At Island Optical, we love having someone you trust on hand for some feedback in real time.

Worry no more if you've put off getting an eye test because of the chore of picking glasses. At Island Optical, we'll help take the chore out of it! So get in touch to book an appointment with an optometrist. Alternatively, drop into one of our branches to see the FACE | FRAME THEORY at work for your face.

What exactly is meant by the term "visual information processing"?

The term "visual processing" refers to the method in which the brain processes visual information, which includes all of the data that a child obtains through reading, using a computer, participating in sports, reading facial clues, and interacting with other people.

Many students who have been identified as having reading and learning problems, dyslexia, or ADD/ADHD also struggle with visual processing difficulties.

What exactly are the challenges faced by VIPs?

There are several distinct forms of visual processing issues, each of which is characterised by a unique set of symptoms. It is possible for a single person to struggle with more than one form of visual processing issue.

1. Visual discrimination

The ability to perceive similarities and differences between forms, sizes, objects, colours, and patterns is referred to as visual discrimination. Visual discrimination can also be referred to as visual perception.

2. The visual figure-ground relationship

The capacity to filter out visual information that isn't immediately important so that you can concentrate on the visual information that is pertinent is referred to as figure-ground perception.

3. Persistence of form

Form constancy is a visual perceptual skill that allows you to understand that a form, shape, or object remains the same even when it changes its size, position, or is in a different environment. This is because form constancy allows you to understand that a form, shape, or object is not affected by changes in its surroundings.

4. Visual closure

Visual closure is a type of visual perceptual talent that refers to the ability to identify an object even when just a portion of that object is visible to the naked eye.

5. Visual memory

The ability to immediately retain what one's eyes have seen is referred to as visual memory.

6. Visual sequential memory

The ability to retain and recall a sequence of events and/or objects in the appropriate order is what we mean when an optometrist near me talk about having visual sequential memory.

7. Visual motor integration

The ability to understand visual information and respond with a motor activity is what we mean when we talk about visual motor integration.

Signs VIP difficulties?

The following is a list of the most typical symptoms of problems affecting VIPs:

A sluggish rate of reading

Problems with the spelling of words

Words that appear to be similar yet are not

Reading backwards through the words

Making the letters or digits appear in reverse

a decline in mathematical ability

Lack of comprehension from reading

sloppy and jumbled handwriting

Letters and digits mixed together with one another

How exactly may vision treatment be beneficial?

A child's visual processing abilities can be improved by the use of eye exercises that assist retrain the eyes and brain to function together. These exercises are typically a part of vision therapy treatment programmes.

[ghostcond]

do you think wizards with astigmatism but without glasses see wisps with those streaks you see late at night from light sources? Do they see someone cast a storm/fire spell squinting like "wow this is weird"? Hopefully you know what im saying bc i dont know the correct term but reading your tag on the post with the diviner and near sightedness I've wondered.. (from an anon with both near sightedness and astigmatism)

AHH i love this question as i am also a person with near sightedness and astigmatism i love the idea of wizards with astigmatism seeing those light streaks (which might be called a refractive error?) coming from the wisps and spells and i think this absolutely would happen to them. in my head, i think wizards with astigmatism would have to get special lenses to correct the fuzzy or streakiness from their spells which might cause them to unfocus - and therefore - fizzle. (thats just what i think though, i dont know if there is an actual in universe explantion for what causes fizzling. i assume that fizzling has to do, at least in part, with vision because the spell smokescreen kind of implies that with the name and the sun school accuracy enchantments have names like "keen eyes" ?????) not to mention things like depth perception when casting spells, i would fuck that up even with my glasses on i like to imagine a young wizard seeing a diviner or pyromancer cast one of their spells, mentioning something about the streaks/fuzziness around their spell, and then having the diviner or pyromancer look at them like they're crazy. or alternatively, the other wizard has an "I KNOW RIGHT??" moment (they both need to get their eyes checked)

The Eyes Have It—Finding an Optometrist Near Me

You've probably had this conversation (or something closely resembling this) before: You're looking for a new mechanic, a new hairdresser, a new butcher.

Unfortunately, you've had a poor experience (perhaps more than one), and you don't want to deal with the hassle any longer—we've all been there. We feel your pain.

Three expensive trips now, and the car still has that weird rattle. Unfortunately, that new haircut makes you look like a pork chop. But, of course, you know all about average pork chops because the last bunch from your local butcher tasted weird, and the butcher shrugged it off.

Along comes Aunty Such-and-such, or So-and-so from across the road, and you get to talking about it (whilst trying to hide your outrageous hair-do under a baseball cap).

What do they all say—every time?

'Your car needs a service? You must see my mechanic! See my guy!'

'Let me call my hairdresser... she'll fix that up straight away!'

'Porkchops? Do you want the best pork chop you've ever tasted? I've got a pork chop, guy!'

Word of mouth is powerfully effective, and a verbal testimony goes a long way. And, if it's from someone we know and trust? Even further.

Finding eye-care professionals is often at the top of the list. Perhaps you've needed someone that can help with a demanding prescription? Or someone that genuinely knows how to adjust spectacle frames properly?

Often, a popular search term on Google is 'An Optometrist Near Me.'

(I think the list unofficially goes; hairdresser, barista, mechanic, then florist. Of course, finding a top-notch optometrist usually pops up next... then porkchop guy. But it's subjective to what you need then and there, right?)

We soon learn where the avoidable coffee/haircuts are.

But, how do you tell the reliable, thorough, and available optometrist apart from the others?

Optometry in general and the optical industry wholly rest on two key elements. We could illustrate it by talking about two arms--a right arm and a left arm. There's the healthcare arm and the retail arm.

Today, the healthcare component of a comprehensive eye test is stabilised by several giant steps forward in technology, data-tracking, record keeping and analysis. This tech, coupled with the understanding of a patient and attentive optometrist, can make your next appointment for an eye examination almost a joy!

Why 'almost?' Because of the other arm.

Outside of the testing room, where it was all about the important part: the healthcare, you've just resigned yourself to push through the big sales pitches. You simply don't have a thousand dollars to spend on prescription eyewear anymore (did we ever?)

Do you also laugh off the suggested spectacle frame designs you wouldn't want to be caught dead in? It's like the haircut thing all over again. Not to mention sneakily adding in a suggestion of requesting a copy of your prescription? It almost feels like begging, right?

Sometimes it feels like an optical minefield out there.

But then, one day, something transformative happens.

Before working up the resolve to return to the same-old practice, you hear word from a trusted friend of an optical business that does things differently. The optometrists who conduct tests onsite are independent professionals: their eye-testing timetable is not hinging on making sales, which means that there is no practice of compelling you into a purchase you may not need.

Not only that, but the support staff on hand know their craft, too. This trusted friend of yours shows you their new pair of glasses, fitting well and giving them excellent vision results for all their needs. But that wasn't what impressed them. It was the fact that the staff member took the time to fix an issue with their old glasses. They may have replaced the nose pads and cleaned the frame. Or maybe they fitted their temples properly behind their ears for the first time, ever?

(You don't recall the details. You just remember this friend of yours was ecstatic about the service.)

"I've got a glasses, guy!" they say. "You've got to go there next time. You need to ask for my optometrist. She is the best!"

And a few weeks later, you do. But, most importantly, your experience mirrored your friend's experience. It wasn't a fluke. You learn through your visit that the business makes its mission to repeatedly offer the highest level of customer service, personalised attention and medical/eye-health care. Day after day, for every pair of eyes.

You're watching families come and go, offering the sincerest thank yous and leaving the biggest smiles. It's impressive - why? Because you didn't think it could be like this.

But it is. And, you're here for it!

The Optical Superstore proudly wave both arms and uses them unitedly: The vital healthcare environment and the retail space.

These two vital areas come together to provide comprehensive eye testing services and a superb range of spectacle frames, sunglasses and prescription lens options for the whole family. Did you know? The Optical Superstore is proudly 100% Australian-owned and operated. Nation-wide, the independent optometrists working onsite offer bulk-billed eye tests.

Have you been worried about making the switch to a new eye-care professional? Perhaps you've caught yourself wondering if there is an optometrist near me worth your time and energy.

Let's face it. It can be all-too-easy to put eye care, eye tests and trips to an optometrist on the back burner. For one thing, our eyes aren't rattling like a dodgy timing belt. And, you'll certainly not settle for a lousy coffee a second time.

The Optical Superstore stands by a simple motto:

SUPER SERVICE | SUPER SAVINGS

We invite you and your family to experience this ‘SUPER’ in action for yourselves. We make eye-testing easier, prescription eyewear more affordable and ongoing support a pleasure to experience.

Get started with our online booking timetable, or check out the latest range of frames with our Virtual Try-On program.

Also, we're only a phone call away.

The Optical Superstore doesn't like doing things with a big song and dance, and we love working hand-in-hand.

We're all about honest, reliable, and affordable optical assistance. With 60+ locations Australia-wide, give your local branch of Optical Superstore a call. Your eyes will thank you for it!

...And we could probably help you out with a great coffee suggestion, too, if need be!
