Not too happy with my new frames. I usually take a lot of care in making sure that new frames won't make my already very strong prescription look worse. I didn't think about it as much this time. These frames are wider and squarer which gives the lenses a lot of room for the curvature to make itself apparent. The lenses are also mounted flush with the front on these frames so the full thickness of the lenses sticks out behind the frame. Usually I get them center mounted so it's only a little thick before and behind. That's not an option with these frames.
It looks alright from the front though. I'll have to give them a little time.
My eyes are also still adjusting, which is always a stomach turning experience.
