Can I wear reading glasses all the time?

This will depend on your reading glasses magnification or prescription, if it is generally a very weak or low prescription then it may not hinder any day to day activities and can even slightly crispen things up for you. However if it is a stronger reading prescription we do not recommend wearing these all the time, we recommend wearing glasses for reading/ipads/computers/laptops and generally near work or concentration tasks. If you want to wear glasses all the time without having to take them on and off you should be considering multifocal lenses.

How do you know what strength reading glasses to get?

When selecting reading glasses your strength will be determined by your age, working distance and comfort. This can be determined by your local optometrist at 1001 optical, alongside any tweaks to the strength of the reading glasses so we can tailor it perfectly for you and whatever near tasks you may be needing them for.

Why do you need reading glasses?

Once we hit the age of ~ 40 years old, technically everyone needs a pair of reading glasses. This is due to Presbyopia, Presbyopia is the fancy way of saying that the lens in your eye responsible for focusing up close becomes less elastic and loses its ability to focus as sharply as it used to. This is why reading glasses are needed, especially if you are having to hold your phone or documents at further away arm lengths!

Does wearing glasses make your eyes worse?

Wearing glasses do not make your eyes worse. This is a very common misconception. Your age and genetics are the major factors determining your glasses prescription, with minor factors including the environment and the amount of near work that is being done. It is always best to take a 5 minute break for every 1 hour of screen time to give your eyes a rest.

Horn-Rimmed Glasses Frames

Horn rimmed glasses have a slightly retro look that has never gone out of style. That’s why at 1001 Optical, we’ve put together a cute collection of horn-rimmed glasses for both men and women. Originally, these glasses were made from animal horn or tortoiseshell, but nowadays, quality synthetic materials are used for a hard-wearing finish while still keeping the quirky style. Take a look at our range of glasses below.

Hipster Horn Rimmed Glasses help you stand out from the crowd

If you’re looking for glasses that are something different from today’s modern styles, then hipster horn rimmed glasses are an excellent choice. There have been lots of revivals of styles from decades past, from the 20s to the 60s, and in many of these time periods, horn rimmed glasses were the look of the day. If you love all things vintage, consider a pair of horn rimmed glasses frames with a tortoiseshell print or finished off with gold hardware.

Choose Horn Rimmed Glasses that suit your style

There are generally two types of horn rimmed glasses. Some have a thicker frame at the top, then a wireframe on the bottom half, while others have a standard round or oval frame. Because of these different shapes and styles, it’s easy to find a pair that suits your face. For example, if you have a square face, you can opt for horn-rimmed glasses with a rounder lens, while if you have a round face, you could choose glasses that are rectangular to help define your face.
