Benefits of bamboo and wooden glasses frames

Before we start, it’s good to know why bamboo and wooden frames make a superior choice for your eyeglasses and sunglasses.

The first benefit that springs to mind is that they are eco-friendly materials, which can be easily replenished after harvesting from renewable sources. In fact, bamboo is one of the fastest-growing plants in the world, so there’s no shortage of this natural material!

Wood and bamboo are both versatile materials, which means they can be fashioned into any style of glasses frames, whether that’s classic, minimalist, or even ultra-fashionable and edgy.

With a variety of shades and finishes, you’ll easily find a shade to suit any complexion.

And did we mention that they’re both hard-wearing and affordable materials, perfect for daily wear in all conditions?

These are the reasons why wood and bamboo are leading the way when it comes to showcasing the latest trends in glasses frames.

What else do I need to know about wood frame prescription eyeglasses?

When you’re choosing your wood frame prescription eyeglasses, there are a couple of other factors besides style that you need to consider.

For the first step, see your optometrist to get a prescription that’s tailored to your individual needs.

Then you’ll need to think about factors like your face shape and size to find the right style frame for you.

Also, consider whether you need single-vision or multi-vision lenses and if you want to add a coating to suit your lifestyle, such as a scratch resistant for glasses that are used day in, day out.

With just a little bit of thought and maybe experimenting with the latest natural-looking styles, it won’t be long before you’ve found the perfect wood or bamboo eyeglasses!

So you’ve found the ultimate wood frame or bamboo sunglasses. What else do you need to know?

Sunglasses are not just a fashion statement. Not only do they shade your eyes from the glare of the sun to make everyday life more comfortable, they also protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. For the highest level of protection, look for sunglasses with a UV 400 label. This means they’ll provide nearly 100% protection from harmful rays.

Prescription sunglasses are the best choice if you already wear eyeglasses to improve your vision as they’ll give you the same clarity but with added protection.

Don’t forget to store your prescription sunglasses in a case to protect them against accidental scratches and distortions, especially if you use them frequently while outdoors.

And remember that you don’t actually need to spend a fortune to find a pair of sunglasses that will protect your eyes, suit your face shape, and match your personal style. Try browsing a variety of styles in our selection to find a pair that suits your budget and your individual look too!
