Rimless glasses and semi-rimless glasses help bring more focus to your face and allow for a subtle look. Rimless glasses are usually made with quality, lightweight and durable materials, such as titanium, as they are more delicate than standard glasses

People with a high prescription, such as greater than -6, should avoid wearing rimless glasses, due to lack of support provided to thick lenses.

What are Rimless Glasses?

Frameless eyeglasses, also known as rimless glasses, are a type of eyewear that do not have a frame. The lenses are connected by a nose bridge and the temples are directly attached to the lenses. These glasses first became widely available in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as prince-nez, which were designed to pinch the nose and did not have earpieces. Manufacturers went to great lengths to ensure that these glasses stayed secure on the nose. Later on, a version with two temple arms and a nose bridge emerged around World War 1.   

Over the years, there have been many structural improvements made to rimless glasses, including the addition of nose pads, changes to screw types, and various style variations.  

Rimless glasses are an excellent choice for those who want to emphasize their face and achieve a subtle look. In the modern era, frameless glasses are typically made using lightweight and durable materials such as titanium, as they are more delicate than traditional glasses

If you have a high prescription, it’s important to choose the right type of eyeglasses to ensure optimal vision and comfort. While prescription rimless glasses may seem like a stylish choice, they may not be the best option for those with prescriptions higher than -6.00.  

This is because stronger prescriptions require thicker lenses, which may not be adequately supported by rimless frames. Instead, it’s recommended to opt for semi-rimless or full-rim glasses in durable plastic or metal frames, which offer the necessary support for thicker lenses.  

Of course, every prescription and lens material is unique, so it’s always best to consult with a certified online optician for personalized advice. They can help you find the perfect pair of glasses that not only meet your vision needs but also complement your personal style.
