Sunglasses for Eye Health
Although sunglasses are often used as wonderful summer accessories, they also have a great value for protecting the health of your eyes. Over time, the sun’s harsh UV rays can cause damage to your eyes and the skin around them. So, the next time you find yourself squinting your eyes outside on a sunny day, you should really consider investing in a pair of high quality sunglasses. Not only will this save your skin from aging but will keep your delicate eyes protected. Vision is something that many of us take for granted and do not think much about. But it is something we would all be devastated to lose. So do something easy and stylish for your health of your eyes by wearing sunglasses this spring and summer.

What Shapes Work
There are so many different shapes of eyewear to choose from, so how do you decide what will look best on you? A great way to help you decide is to determine what general shape your face is. Today we will be examining round and square faces and glasses. The best way to balance out a round or square face is to wear the opposite shape of glasses. Therefore, if you have sharp, angular features you can make them appear more subtle with a round pair of glasses like our Diane or Toby collections. If your face and features are more rounded, than it is best to go with square or rectangular shaped glasses like our Alex or Julian collections. If you are going for a more delicate look, than check out our Kelly and Kendall line that has frames on the top and is rimless on the bottom. This design allows the glasses to blend more easily into the rest of your face. Whatever your personal taste is, we have something for everyone at Amy Sacks Eyewear.

How Your Glasses Can Enhance Your Eyes
Your glasses have the power to enhance your eyes. For information on how to enhance your eyes go to How to choose Eyeglasses for your Eye Color or read the suggestions below.
- Blue eyes: A contrasting brown tone will help your blue eyes pop. Or, for a super intensified look with an edge, opt for a matching tone, like cobalt, midnight, or steel blue.
- Green eyes: For a pretty complementary shade, try something in the plum-toned family, and for something more vivid, go with a nice emerald-green.
- Brown eyes: A lavender color will provide just the right amount of contrast to make brown eyes stand out, while a matching tortoise or coffee shade will help deepen your natural eye tone.
- Hazel eyes: Why not try a greenish frame to emphasize the gold in hazel eyes? And to give depth to hazel peepers, go for a brownish tone.

3 Tips on Taking Care of Your New Glasses
There are three essential tips glasses-wearers should consider for taking care of new glasses. First, always rinse off the lenses with water before wiping or cleaning. This is very important because tiny particles can be spread even more when they are rubbed across the surface of the lens which could cause possible future irritations to the eye. Second, always use a soft and clean cloth to wipe the lens surface after rinsing. A 100% cotton cloth always works best since cotton fibers have the ability to pull off the most particles on surfaces. Lastly, it is crucial to keep your glasses in a hard glasses case when they are not in use. Nowadays, constantly being on-the-go is common among people and especially during hectic moments it is common for people to simply place their glasses into a bag or pocket can permanently damage them. Also, a protective case gives you the option to express yourself! Remember these three simple steps for a long-lasting experience with your new glasses.
Celebrity Trends in Eyewear
We owe it to celebrities for doing away with the “four eyes” stigma that glasses used to bring to an individual. Eyewear has become more than just a functional accessory. Eyewear is now a way to define oneself.
Whether wearing prescription lenses, reading glasses or sunglasses, the style you choose to view the world with will be the style the world will view you with. So, be sure to define yourself in a style that’s sure to turn heads, express your individual identity and still come across with a touch of timeless class.

Figuring out Your Face Shape
Determining what basic shape your face is will help you select the best glasses to compliment your contours. People who have an oval shaped face are considered to be the luckiest because they can wear pretty much any style of glasses. The other basic shape categories that most people’s faces fall into are square, round, triangular, oblong, diamond, and heart. Before purchasing glasses it is recommended that you find out which category your face fits into. People with round faces should wear narrow and rectangular shaped frames to achieve the appearance of a longer face. If you are trying to tone down a square shaped face, it is best to wear oval shaped glasses. It is recommended to wear eyeglasses with detail and bold colors on the top half of the frames and lenses to balance out a triangular shaped face. Another good tip is that you should match the size of your glasses with that of your facial features. For example, if you have really small facial features, it is best to wear smaller glasses and vice versa. However, the best part about rules is being able to break them. Creating your own unique look is half the fun of wearing eyeglasses, so always stay true to your personality.
Why Glasses Give You Personal Expression
From rounded edges to rectangular frames to frameless, all those who wear glasses express themselves through their lenses. Since glasses can come in various colors, shapes, and styles, they too, create a personality. For example, imagine candy-apple-red-framed glasses on a person. What immediately comes to mind? Red tends to give an impression of fierce and fearlessness causing others to apply the same characteristics for the person as well. The main reason why glasses express personal expression is because the first thing someone sees when they approach a person is their eyes. However, for glasses-wearers, the glasses become the eyes since they are closer to the person than the eyes are themselves.
Eyewear is an Accessory
Some people only buy one pair of glasses that they have to wear everyday and for all occasions. How can one pair of glasses go with every outfit you own? The short answer: they simply can’t. Eyewear is an important accessory that can either enhance your look or take away from it. No one would dream of wearing the same pair of shoes every day, so why should you be limited when it comes to your eyewear? Glasses are available in a wide range of shapes, sizes and colors that express different personalities. One pair may look professional and is great for the office, while another is trendy and more appropriate for a night out. The important thing to remember is that glasses do not only have to serve the purpose of vision correction. They can also be used as a key accessory to complete every look and event you attend.
This Year's Top Trends in Eyewear
Top picks this year for eyewear are box and rectangular shaped frames often referred to as cubic frames. This popular look provides a professional appearance with a trendy edge. Cubic Frames are perfect for the work place and can add that final touch to your business attire for an interview. However, these angular glasses provide a modern look that is not just limited to the professional world. Cubic frames can dress up and add personality to more casual outfits as well.
Details and patterns on the side arms of eyewear are all the rage this year. Color mixtures and prints add eye-catching flare to make your eyeglasses more like a piece of jewelry. Spice up your look and have fun with these flashy styles. Stand out this season with this must have funky fashion accessory.
Bold and non-traditional colors are another trend that set this season apart. People are no longer limiting themselves to basic black, silver, or gold colored frames. It is very popular to sport anything from lime green to purple when it comes to wearing eyewear accessories. Often people buy glasses in their favorite color and even get different colors to match different outfits. This is a fun new way for you to express your individuality and look good, too.
