Hello there and welcome back. So now that you've had your appointment with your optometrist
and we know the prescription the next step is to select you the perfect pair of glasses,
or multiple pairs, to get you looking wonderful. Now I've listened to your
recommendations and the recommendations from the optometrist and have come up,
within here, this lovely wooden lens case, I have placed some exquisite frames in for you to try
and with some of my own personal recommendations, which I feel will look amazing on you.
So we'll be trying on the glasses having a look at the frames and why they are so good
and then I can take the specific and technical facial measurements so everything
is lined up and visually everything will be spot on for you. So first up iIhave selected
this frame for you. Now the reason why this frame is special, other than the beautiful design there
on the sides, have a little look at that, you do have the plastic tips for extra comfort behind the
ears, these are stunning because you have the metal rim at the top but no rim at the bottom,
you have a nylon cord holding the lenses in place this is known as a supra frame,
we have the flexible sides there, okay we have the plastic
pads here, which we we can always change to silicon once for added comfort
I thought the colour was very striking on these frames here
Okay, so ,you need to try these on for me now. Pop them on like so.
Just going to have a look at the sides there, let's see how they're lining up on you.
Excellent so that is the first pair there.
What's your thoughts on those? They looked very good.
okay we have next a full
metal rim pair here. Have the more rounded lens shape. Again these are with the
plastic pads there, which will just gently rest on the bridge of the nose.
You have the plastic tips just there. Again these are flexible hinge sides
and I wanted to show you the tint on this pair. We can issue a tint on your spectacles
to help with reducing glare, protecting your eyes from sunlight. Okay, so we could make the tint a
little bit lighter than this, we could even go a little bit darker for you, depending on the
protection you're looking for. I recommend going just a little bit darker in these and
you can then use them for your walking about outdoor pair. Okay. So if you
create a darker tint we will not use them indoors these, will be your outdoor everyday pair.
Okay, so if you could or if I could pop those on for you and then I'm going to
have a look at the fitting how they're lining up. Let me just adjust the pads a little bit.
Okay, bringing the pads in will allow the frame to sit a little bit higher
on the face, thus obtaining a better cosmetic fit. So what do you think about this pair?
What do you think? You feel it's elegant, could you see yourself wearing these>
Okay I'll make some notes.
Now we're going to move away from the metal frames.
I've actually found some plastic ones for you ,without the pads.
Here is the first pair I've selected for you. Flexibility in the sides again. Full plastic.
So the front part is a darker colour, you have your aqua inlay just there,
have a little look for me. With a little bit of heat, these sides can be easily adjusted
to wrap comfortably around your ear. Okay have a little look. Also note the diamante design here,
a little bit of sparkle for you and the wonderful floral pattern on the side there.
And on the right side we have the same thing you have your diameter design and the floral pattern,
in wonderful condition.
Okay, let me pop these on for you, just have a look at the fit of those.
Okay they're fitting quite well on the bridge of the nose. Obviously we can't adjust anything
apart from the sides. That is a lovely fit there, okay, and you do stand out with those diamantes.
Lovely. We have a very similar pair, plastic frame with a diamante design, but
slightly different colour, but very similar frame shape and lens shape. Have a look at those there.
If you think you have the diamantes on the front there
four rows of glitter and shine and then take a look at this floral design here,
with diamantes within the flowers, there what do you think?
What do you think of those? Lovely, I agree.
Flexibility on the sides there. I've got a little joint here, screw joint for adjusting
on there for tightening the arms if they ever become slack
and we can use heat to adjust these sides, get them fitting perfectly. Let's have a little look.
Let's pop those on for you, see how they're looking.
Again they look fine, very similar to the first, previous plastic pair we tried.
Good fit. Just going to tug on those a little bit.
The fitting is quite good as it is, but I will bring the sides down a little bit more there.
Okay, we have another plastic pair here,
but Ive gone for something a little more eye-catching in terms of the colour.
Cast your eyes on this pair here. So we don't have the flexibility of the hinge joint there,
nevertheless you do have a little bit of give with this frame, got a little bit of stretch
but we're not going to apply too much pressure there, but these are striking due to the two-tone
purple and pink effect, that will certainly catch people's eyes when you're wearing these.
A lovely pair, one of my personal favourites. Have a little look at the finish
and the design there
I will adjust these accordingly with the frame heater
and we can also place an anti reflection coating on the lenses, to reduce the
glare, for example when you're driving or when you're sitting in front of your computer screen.
Okay, so these would be great for driving, walking about in or using on the computer as well.
Lovely finish there, very neat and colourful. Let's place them on for you.
Okay these lenses are a little bit smaller than the previous pair, not as wide,
not as high, with a beautiful fit there
and the colour catches everybody's eyes. Super. Okay I'm going to try one more
optical frame I've selected. Another one of my personal favourites, which should look amazing.
Okay full plastic tips here full plastic tips and what I like about this is the finish and the
colour of the metal frame, almost like a bronze gold colour. Okay you've gone back to the pads,
which can be adjusted to help the frame sit better. Flexibility in the sides there.
Okay, have a look at the tips and then also the diamante design here.
Very stunning and elegant piece
Eye-catching but elegant, perfect for going out for special occasions.
They'll look wonderful. Your prescription can easily be placed in these glasses,
be easily glazed into these frames. Let's check the diamantes are all shimmering nicely
oh yes they look fantastic, you must have this pair. They fit perfectly. They're very
light on the front. You don't have the boldness of the plastic frames. Lovely
okay now I'm going to move on to another pair
they have built-in magnification, but these are going to be used
when you are doing your very fine close work, your model making
we have these magnifying, almost like safety spectacles here.
You don't have the side protection but you have a good front protection. We have this
almost saddle like bridge, this is a silicon design, for give and adequate comfort.
We have the nice thick, bold sides there like so, and the added benefit is the
illumination feature, so you have two light sources, right side
and the left side, together with the added magnification, you will be able to see that
fine detail with your model making, for example you'll see a screw head brightly and clearly
and you just press the button there and you have a port
just under the protective cover there, a little port for charging those up, so they
are rechargeable, magnified and illuminated safety spectacles there. They should fit fine.
yes looking good good on the bridge and the sides yes, fitting well. Okay,
so that is a pair you shall have for your fine close, model making work
and we have one more pair. These are special uv shield spectacles,
providing protection from this side and this side on those brighter days,
when the sunlight is very intense and bright, you can have these full, wide, protective uv
shields. They're offering full uv protection. Okay, let's try this final pair on for you,
see how they're looking. Yes full coverage, upper and lower. Fit looks okay on the bridge excellent
okay so those are the frames I've selected. Before I leave you to try them on yourself,
I'm going to take a few vital measurements. I'm going to place this on the bridge of the nose
and we have a little ruler here for checking the fine measurements,
to allow us to glaze the lenses accurately and accordingly.
okay this is on the bridge of the nose, looking to this eye and this eye, this one, this one, down
a little bit more, try and look at this eye and this eye. 33 per eye. Looking to this eye please
and this eye
and again this eye
check your optical centres, this frame here
into this eye, this eye, this one, this one, lovely
okay placing the bridge of the nose now I'm going to bring this forward
until we just miss the eyelashes to check where they have a positive or negative bridge projection
about there good
okay i'm just going to move this along the bridge of the nose to find the best fit
the apical radius let's bring this right
going to be too large
Good fit there, seven millimetres thank you
okay just looking to this eye now and this one is okay and I'm thinking about bifocals,
I'm just going to measure from the bottom lid here to the bottom of that frame
keep looking into this eye please. okay it's about 10 millimetres there, good
just place this on the bridge of the nose, I'm just going to check the angle here and again
good
and from the angle here
there 20 degrees and from the other side
just make contact with the nose
15 lovely okay so I'm going to leave you to have a look at the frames there, I've shown you my
personal recommendations and the ones I feel match your own expectations
um I have the measurements as I say, I'll leave you to try them on and let me know
when you're finished which ones you want to go ahead with and we'll price them up thank you
