Do you have facial features that don’t allow for a comfortable fit with standard glasses? Such as:

• move up and down when you smile or laugh

It means that standard eyeglasses and sunglasses aren’t the most suitable fit for you.

Nevertheless, you don’t have to miss out on all the latest designs or trendiest frames thanks to low bridge Asian fit glasses.

Aurora is a Digital Marketing Specialist for SmartBuyGlasses. She’s enthusiastic about supporting the marketing efforts across multiple channels. Her goal is to create riveting content that is also educational by bringing to you all the latest eyewear trends.

It’s time to take off with your bomber jackets, cool patches and white t-shirts because we’re here to inspire you with some Top Gun sunglasses ideas. 

We’ve dug up some classic sunglasses to celebrate a fashion staple that is a symbol for Hollywood and pilots. Ray-Ban aviators were initially designed to improve a pilot’s vision while flying, thanks to the frame design and protective lenses.

So, we’re excited to revisit an iconic frame style with Top Gun Maverick sunglasses, as well as introduce you to some styles that offer a twist on the classics!

At High-Speed With Classic Aviators

We had to include the classic Top Gun Ray-Ban sunglasses with the Ray-Ban RB3025 Aviator Large Metal in a gold frame and green lenses.  It’s a classic!  

The thin frame is lightweight and fits comfortably on many face shapes, so get ready to fly high with a cool pair of Ray-Ban Aviators. 

But, if you’re looking for the same classic feel at a more affordable price, you’ll find what you love with our SmartBuy Collection pilot frames! 

This pair of SmartBuy Collection Haven and our range of pilot sunglasses come in quality materials and have UV-protected lenses, in various lens colours too!

Anyone can rock the Tom Cruise Top Gun sunglasses look!

SHOP AVIATORS SUNGLASSES
SHOP PILOT SUNGLASSES

Square Up To Your Next Mission

Time to dust off that ‘80s leather jacket and rock a cool vibe with Kelly McGillis Top Gun sunglasses that feature square pilot frames. 

Why not try a pair of eco-chic pilot glasses from Arise Collective? You’ll look perfectly in character with the Arise Collective Neil in a gunmetal grey.

Find classic pilot glasses in diverse frame designs for an iconic yet fresh look. Even these Ray-Ban RB3530 Highstreet square aviators are as cool as the classic teardrop frame. Want to fly the extra mile? Why not combine the frames with mirrored lenses instead!

So, whether it’s trendy affordable, or designer brands, you’ll be able to get your hands on stylish frames and spread your wings.

Doing It Better And Rounder

In addition to classic aviators and square pilots, we have a range of sleek round pilot sunglasses for men, women and kids to enjoy. 

If the double nose bridge of pilot frames works well for your wardrobe, then explore all the fun shapes they have to offer. Use our Virtual Try-On for this pair of Ray-Ban RB3647N aviators and tell us you don’t look sharp. 

Or, this pair of SmartBuy Collection Akiva which you can easily buy with your prescription. You won’t need perfect vision to rock our prescription sunglasses or fly high, as long as you’re not the pilot.

Elite Eyewear

If you love the Top Gun sunglasses inspo but want to rock pilot frames day and night, prepare to take off with quality pilot glasses. 

That’s right! Pilot frames are also available as prescription glasses for every type of prescription you need. 

Go from one mission to another with blue light protection in these Tom Ford FT5627 and change the look with their colourful Havana frames. Blue light glasses are a great way to reduce glare!

Or, opt for clip-on sunglasses in a pilot frame to enjoy the best of both worlds. SmartBuy Collection Pongco offers you up to 4 different clip-on lenses to customize your look and make your arrivals and departures memorable.

We’ll Be Your Wingman or Woman

We know Top Gun is a timeless movie, not just because of the performance, the time, the shirtless scenes… but also the Top Gun aviator sunglasses. 

The particular frame design is a staple accessory of the movie thanks to the fashionable eyewear and its importance as the number one protective sunglasses for pilots. 

However, nowadays, everyone can enjoy the simple yet cool look of wearing Ray-Ban aviators and pilot frames, so let SmartBuyGlasses be your wingman and get you fixed with a Top Gun look. 

We want to see how you’ll channel your inner Tom Cruise with  Top Gun sunglasses, so don’t forget to show us on Instagram by tagging @smartbuyglasses!

The Best Sunglasses for Men this Father's Day

Father’s Day is just around the corner, and if you’re struggling to decide what to get your Dad, you came to the right place! You can’t go wrong with one gift: a pair of men’s sunglasses. With a  combination of style and necessity, sunglasses are a thoughtful and practical gift that he’ll love. Even if he already owns a pair, why not treat him to an upgrade?

Whether he’s a sports fanatic, workaholic, or always up for a mountain hike, he needs a pair of high-quality sunglasses. Men’s sunglasses styles are forever changing and it can feel difficult to keep up with the latest trend in men’s sunglasses. Below you can check out the best sunglasses for men and find out which brand suits your Dad the most. No matter his style, we’ve got you covered with the perfect gift.

What men’s sunglasses are in style?

Summer is fast-approaching, and you want Dad to look his best with a fabulous pair of sunglasses. To go the extra mile, add his prescription to ensure he looks good and sees clearly all year long. 

Trending men’s sunglasses this year range from heavy browline sunglasses to square wayfarer sunglasses, as well as oversized aviator sunglasses and silver and gold metallics. However, there are also timeless pairs mentioned in this guide that won’t go out of fashion anytime soon. 

What are the best sunglasses for men?

So, now that you’ve decided it’s time to upgrade Dad’s look with a new pair of sunglasses, let’s dive into which trending men’s sunglasses are best for your Dad’s personality and lifestyle.

For the sporty Dad 

Is your Dad super active and always playing sports? Bring on high-performance Oakley sunglasses. From baseball to golf, fishing to cycling, Oakley sunglasses will help you knock it out of the park this Father’s Day. We recommend the sleek Oakley HALF JACKET 2.0 with Prizm Green Pink lenses that ensure the sun won’t be in Dad’s way when playing his favourite sport this summer.

For the fun Dad

If Dad jokes, bad puns, and a goofy personality describe your Dad, we have the perfect frames to add a bit of spunk to his comedic act. Ray-Ban has an array of colourful shades that are perfect for a fun dad who isn’t afraid of trying something a bit out there. For example, the Ray-Ban RB4296M with an explosive red frame will ensure Dad turns heads while lighting up the room with his humour.

For the Dad that’s always on an adventure

If your Dad is a wannabe Bear Grylls and can never say no to a hiking or camping trip, then Arise Collective is the ideal brand for him. We recommend a polarised pair, like the Arise Collective Rhode Island style that’s available in seven colours. Made of eco-friendly acetate, these frames offer category 2 UV protection, so Dad’s eyes will stay protected on all of his adventures.

For the Dad that’s always first in line at carpool

As a keen driver, your Dad needs to look good while driving around his prized possession. Porsche sunglasses are the perfect Father’s Day sunglasses if Dad always finds a reason to drive around town, as each pair emits impeccable taste. He must look cool, so opt for a pair like Porsche Design P8478 with superb functionality that blocks 100% UV rays and glare while driving.

For the Dad that works long hours 

Workaholic dads need to look their best to work their best. Tom Ford offers different styles of men’s sunglasses, with every pair crafted with precise detail and quality materials. Dad is guaranteed to look smart in a pair of Tom Ford FT0858-N ANSEL as he makes his morning commute and, when he arrives at the office, he can switch over to Tom Ford blue block glasses.

Conclusion 

Now that you know which men’s sunglasses are in style, it’s time to get Dad a pair in time for Father’s Day. Put a smile on his face with the best sunglasses for men that he can wear all year long.

Do you ever wish you could turn back the clock and party like it’s 1999? You’re in luck because the fashion trends from the late 90s and early 2000s have been making their comeback!

Two decades later and the cyclical nature of fashion has struck again and brought back some iconic Y2K styles with a modern twist.

Thanks to celebrities and Gen Z influencers making it a trend on socials, the Y2K aesthetic is back and here to stay, but what is it?

What is Y2K?

Y2K is short for “the year 2000”. Y2K was also commonly used to refer to the panic that wreaked havoc during the late 90s over the idea of a widespread computer bug that was expected to cause chaos as the year changed from 1999 to 2000.

In terms of fashion, Y2K style refers to the iconic styles worn during the late 1990s and early 2000s that are back in mainstream fashion.

That’s right, fashion enthusiasts! It’s time to break out your chunky trainers, velour tracksuits, baby tees with mini skirts and low rise baggy jeans, and find the perfect pair of Y2K sunglasses to match this iconic look. 

Popular sunglasses styles from 90s and 00s

Let’s take a trip down memory lane, and revisit some favourite sunglasses styles worn from the late 1990s and early 2000s that have been making their way back as top sellers.

Whether you’re looking for a sleek, timeless classic like a rectangular frame or wanting to make a statement with bold colours, there truly is a style for everyone.

90s rectangular frames

Rectangular frames are the ultimate Y2K accessory. Whether it’s a narrow rectangular frame that took the world by storm in the 90s, or a bolder oversized look, rectangular frames will never go out of style. 

This style of sunglasses has, and always will be, a staple piece in any wardrobe because rectangular sunglasses have such a sleek look that can truly pair with any outfit you throw on.

They have even seen a rise in popularity amongst celebrities and A-listers making appearances on the red carpet.

Ah yes, the quintessential Y2K rimless sunglasses. Is it really Y2K fashion without a pair of rimless sunglasses?

These lightweight sunglasses are the perfect throwback to 90s and 00s pop culture. They add a simple yet eye-catching statement to any outfit. 

Throw on a pair of low rise jeans, a cropped shirt, simple flip flops and a pair of rimless sunglasses and you have the perfect Y2K look. 

Bonus points if your rimless shades are embellished with rhinestones and paired with denim mini dresses!

Pastel tinted lenses

The iconic pastel lenses from this era are back and better than ever.

With dopamine dressing on trend, this iconic Y2K style is the perfect accessory for your bold, bright and colourful outfits, or even as a statement piece for the minimalistic aesthetic. 

From bubblegum pink to purple, blue and yellow, you can’t go wrong with adding a pop of colour to your look with these tinted lenses.

These pastel frames will perfectly match your colourful butterfly clips and ballet flats.

Wraparound reflective sunglasses

Calling all who love the sporty aesthetic – mirrored athletic frames are in!

Wraparound mirrored sunglasses have always been a style well-suited for those with an active lifestyle, but in the 90s, they became a fashion sensation.

Lately, wraparound sunglasses have been a hot commodity for fans of the “athleisure” style, which is commonly described as wearing athletic attire that is cute, comfortable and more fashion than function. 

Bonus points if you break out your baggy cargo pants, bedazzled baguette bags and bucket hats to go with these sunglasses!

Oversized sunglasses

Y2K fashion or not, throwing on a pair of oversized frames will elevate any style and create an added sense of anonymity that is quite popular amongst celebrities who don’t wish to be recognised. 

Whether you’re wanting to make a statement with bold prints or accessories, or hoping to hide behind your frames, you can truly never go wrong with a pair of oversized sunglasses.

Sorry, we could not find the following product IDs in our database: 637313. Please check and use correct values.

Find your perfect pair

From bold colourful statement lenses to minimal and sleek rectangular frames, these popular styles from Y2K aren’t going away anytime soon, so why not join in on the trend?

If you want to sport the look and embrace your inner millennium baby, chances are you’ll find what you’re looking for among our wide selection of sunglasses and eyeglasses.

SUMMARY

The types of glasses are:

– Single vision: They correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. They can be either distance or near vision glasses.

– Bifocal: They provide distance correction at the top and near correction towards the bottom, with a visible line separating the two areas.

– Varifocal: They provide correction for near, intermediate and distance focal points without visible lines.

– Reading: They magnify things to make them bigger.

– Blue light: They filter out blue light emitted from digital screens to reduce digital eye strain.

– Safety: They protect eyes from external factors that may hinder vision.

– Sunglasses: They have tinted lenses that protect the eyes from sunlight.

With various types of glasses, choosing the perfect pair might be overwhelming. This article helps you understand all the different types of glasses, lenses, and frames available. Use this as a starting point to see all the options and find the perfect eyewear.

Types of prescription glasses

Firstly, you need to know if you need an eye prescription for your glasses. Whether it’s for reading, working, or leisure, many people need eyeglasses to help correct their vision and see better. Before shopping for a new pair, make sure your eye prescription is still valid, or visit your optometrist for a check-up.

Our eyesight naturally changes as we age, and sometimes it can change while we are still young. These changes can depend on genetics, illnesses, or a misshaped cornea. For each type of refractive error, there is a pair of prescription glasses to help correct it.

Single vision glasses

type of glasses
type of glasses

Single Vision glasses are the most common type of glasses. “Single Vision” means that the lenses only have one type of vision correction, so one focal length. They help correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, but only for either distance or near vision, never both.

DID YOU KNOW?

When choosing a pair of sunglasses, you should always opt for something with UV protection.

Bifocal glasses

type of glasses
type of glasses

Bifocal glasses have lenses with separate prescription zones for near and far vision. At the top, you’ll have your distance correction, while your near vision correction is towards the bottom.

These lenses have a distinct line between each value which causes an image to jump when the eye moves from a far distance to a near one. An image jump is when  the object appears to jump into view closer than it is when viewing through the near segment.

Progressive glasses

type of glasses
type of glasses

Unlike bifocals, progressive glasses help correct all focal points without visible lines. Each area transitions from one visual correction to another, allowing smoother vision.

The top of the lens is adapted for distance vision and gradually increases in power into the intermediate prescription, which corrects anything at an arm’s length away. Finally, it increases in power towards the bottom, designed for reading or other “close-up” tasks, like checking a price tag or using your smartphone.

Reading glasses

Reading glasses are a type of single vision lenses, but they do not always require a prescription and are available OTC (over the counter), even at local supermarkets. These do not correct your vision but simply magnify things to make them bigger.

They also do not correct astigmatism or amblyopia (a difference of power between the two eyes), so you can only get them in the same power for both eyes (R+L). Reading glasses help you see things close up, like reading a book or looking at your phone or computer.

The power value of reading glasses can start low (+1) and reach higher prescriptions (+4). There are different types of reading glasses which you can read more about here to choose the best one for you. In any case, we recommend consulting your opticians when experiencing visual discomfort before buying any glasses.

Blue light glasses

Blue light blocking glasses are designed to filter out the blue light rays commonly released from digital screens. The filter on the surface of these lenses blocks out an estimated 65% of blue light rays. This will help prevent eyestrain symptoms caused by blue light that can irritate the eyes. If you use digital technology for socializing, fun, or work and have noticed changes in your eyes or health, then blue light glasses may be what your eyes need.

Safety glasses

Safety glasses are available to anyone without any prescription and help protect your eyes from external factors that may hinder your vision. Safety goggles are a must if working in an environment surrounded by hazardous elements, but they can also be used in other contexts for work or leisure.

Sunglasses

Sunglasses are also glasses that we can use with or without a prescription to see better and protect our eyesight. Similar to prescription glasses, sunglasses can also come with various lenses and filters that work best with specific situations.

If you’re looking for something practical that combines your glasses and sunglasses or don’t like wearing contact lenses, you may want to consider the following:

Types of lenses for glasses

Depending on a person’s eye needs and preferences, different types of lenses work best with prescription glasses. 

  • Glass
  • Plastic
  • Polycarbonate
  • Trivex & High trivex

You can also combine many lenses with protective coatings to reduce damage to your eyewear and eyesight. Alongside quality lenses, specific frames are also available for all glasses.

Types of glasses frames

Even frame materials and designs can impact your vision and comfort. Some are heavier than others or even bulkier, while others are more lightweight and look nearly invisible. 

 

Frame types

There are three main types of glasses frames: 

  • Full-rim: Full-rim frames completely outline the lens. They are the most durable frame type. 
  • Rimless: Rimless glasses, also known as frameless eyeglasses, are glasses with no frame. The nose bridge connects the lenses, and the temples are directly attached to the lenses. This frame type is the most delicate one.
  • Semi-rimless: Semi-rimless frames cover the top part of the lenses.

Frame materials

There are four main types of material used for glasses frames:

  • Acetate: Acetate glasses are a low-price option, much like plastic glasses, with the benefits of greater durability and closer related to metal frames. 
  • Metal: Aside from their elegant aesthetic benefits, metal frame glasses are a durable material that isn’t likely to break easily with proper care. 
  • Plastic: Plastic is the most affordable option. Plastic frames make for a great second pair of backup glasses. Plastic is also lightweight and resistant to chemical corrosion. 
  • Titanium: While more expensive than other materials, titanium glasses are the most resistant. They are flexible, hypoallergenic, and lightweight for a comfortable fit. 
  • Wood: Wood frame glasses are durable and resistant as well as eco-friendly. Aside from this, they offer a unique aesthetic quality to add to your style. 

Frame shapes

Glasses come in a variety of shapes, and this is excellent news! You can find the one that will emphasize your best features and adapt to the type of prescription you need. Consult this infographic and then read on to learn how to match your face shape with the right frame. 

The frame size is also important when choosing the type of glasses you want. If your specs do not fit comfortably on your face, you’ll experience discomfort, such as glasses slipping down or tight frames. 

What type of glasses fits my face?

With all these frame types, styles, and shapes, there are hundreds of options to choose from. One way to start narrowing down your choices is to determine which face shape you have. Watch this tutorial to find your face shape and which glasses fit you best!

What type of glasses should I get?

Whether you need to read, see distant objects, or look cool, the type of glasses you need depends on your eyes and lifestyle. Firstly, if you need vision correction, make sure your prescription is up to date. Once you have that, read about the best lenses you can get or ask for online advice from one of our opticians.

In this article, we’ve covered the different types of prescription and non-prescription glasses and some tips for choosing the best pair for you. We’ve also introduced the various lens materials, coatings, and frames from which prescription glasses and sunglasses can benefit.

Remember that before you buy any prescription glasses, you should have regular eye tests by your optometrist or eye doctor. At SmartBuyGlasses, you can find optical advice and trendy and quality eyewear to satisfy your needs and lifestyle.
