Picking a frame is part science, part personal taste. As a starting point, our opticians look at the balance between your face shape and the frame outline before anything else.

Round faces generally suit angular frames — rectangles and squares add definition. Square faces soften nicely with round or oval frames. Oval faces are the most flexible and can wear almost any shape well.

Bring your current glasses (or a selfie) to any Ibsar branch and our team will talk you through options in person — fitting always beats guessing.
