Get Ready to Model Frames

If you've got a new prescription to fill or maybe you're just tired of your current frames, then you are ready to start modeling frames. There are literally thousands of frames to browse through here and the app allows you to render your face in 3D so you can try them on and get a realistic point of view. For many people they end up putting off purchasing new glasses simply because it’s hard to pick frames.

With this app you will be able to turn your head from side to side with the frames on so you don't just see what you look like straight on but also from the side. This is a wonderful way to tell how the frames work sizing- and shape-wise with your face

Taking Out the Guesswork

This app will take out all the guesswork of finding the perfect frames because there is no such thing as limited colors, shapes, and sizes when you have an inventory as large as this. Once you select your glasses you will be able to try them on and even move them up or down on your nose so you can see how they look. Share the pictures with friends and family so you can get added input on which style is best for you.

Some of the brands you'll find here include Kate Spade, Ray-Ban, Oakley, Maui Jim, and Burberry. And let's not forget: as mentioned you can expect to save up to 50 percent on your purchase.

The app is very simple to use. Instead of using a picture of yourself the app uses video of your face. By doing this you'll be able to get that 3D image which makes all the difference in the world when trying on frames. As someone who wears glasses on a regular basis I find this app to be incredibly easy and useful. I love that you can try on so many different frames without even leaving your home.

Final Thoughts

The glasses.com for iPhone app is meant to take all the hassle and frustration out of shopping for glasses and sunglasses. I like that instead of just viewing an image of the frames on your face you can see it in 3D which gives you a much better sense of how they’d look.
