QUESTION for people who have glasses and maybe are asian?!


Question: QUESTION for people who have glasses and maybe are asian?
OK so I have a really really shallow nose bridge... is that the correct word? shallow? I have a few photos to show you what I mean but basically I'm blind as a bat and I wear contacts in public and I can never bring myself to wear my one pair of glasses out in public because they fit my face uncomfortably and they're ugly (in my opinion).

And so I was wondering what kinds of glasses (brands?) are more suitable for people with flat nose bridges?


I know this sounds weird but I'm pretty sure a lot of asians have my type of nose bridge... you'll see in the photos lol so if you're asian and half blind maybe this question is more applicable to you.


thank you!

I'm Japanese-American.

I find that having glasses with the movable nose pads work better than frames without.

Some folks will try to adjust these by moving the pads out and have them sitting flatter against your face. It works better to have them closer together so they sit on what there is of the bridge of your nose.

No expert, just personal experience.



I'm not sure if the brand of glasses should matter that much. I think it's more how the nose pads are adjusted maybe? When I got my glasses they put a better set of nose pads on them than the ones that came with the glasses. Then they adjusted them to fit my face. They can make them so the glasses are sitting a little farther out from your face so they aren't pressing on your nose bridge.

I don't think your glasses are dorky either, they look kinda cute!



Your pictures are great i dont know why you're worried. Seriously empower yourself and get a new pair on fasionable frames. Forget the age old sterotypes, glasses are sexy these days, they are favourable and fasionable. You look great! Just how bad is your presciption though??
