Know the frames that suit you. Grab a pair that defines your looks while wearing them. It must also feel comfortable otherwise wearing it may feel a little awkward.

Remember that darker coating tints absorb more light. Polarized sunglasses filter horizontal glare reflection. If you travel beside water, this can be a great choice because it absorbs 98% of glare. Another type of coating is the photochromic which darkens and lightens depending on the change of light. Mirror or flash coatings greatly decreases the amount of reflection that may reach your eyes. It is usually applied on dark lens however, it is also used on base colors. This type of coating absorbs 10-60% of reflection more than uncoated lenses. Gradient coating, on the other hand, is permanently shaded from top to bottom. This is oftentimes found in flying and driving lenses. The reason behind this is to for the dashboard and instrument panels to be seen clearly. Scratch-resistant coatings are made by putting a clear and hard coating in front and at the back of the lenses. Another kind of coating is the anti-reflective. Mental oxides are applied on the lens surface to block reflected light in order to reduce glare.
Select hinge pieces that fit together well. There must be no gaps. Hinge pieces use two materials- metal and nylon. They are used for added strength and to secure a snug fit.
