Children's spectacle frames should be appropriately sized for comfort, with robust and lightweight materials that won't cause allergic reactions. Frames should fit securely while avoiding pressure points, and include features like spring hinges, large nose bridges, or gel pads for comfort. Sports frames may have strap attachments to ensure secure fit during active play. Early eye exams within the first ten days of life can help detect and treat vision issues early when the eye is still developing. Sunglasses from an optician provide needed UV protection for children's developing eyes.

2. The right spectacle frames for
children
Making decisions is never easy.
And it's not only the look that is
important in the choice of
spectacle frames for children.

3. Spectacles suitable for
children
• Show which spectacle frames are right for him or her.
• If the color is right, then the child will be motivated and
proud to wear the spectacles.
• Spectacle frames should fit in order to feel good wearing
them and not feel like the spectacles are strange.
• Spectacles for children should be comfortable and sit
consistently well, without slipping. This is a particularly
important criterion for babies or toddlers.

4. The right fit
• The spectacle frames should not be too big or too
small
• The size of the spectacles depend on the size of
the eye socket and the distance between the
child's eyes.
• the spectacles do not sit on the child's cheeks and
cause pressure marks and discomfort.
• The spectacle should not be higher than the
eyebrows or wider than the face.

5. Materials
• Robust
• break-proof
• Light
• Some children suffer from allergies, particularly
to nickel.
• Spectacle frames made of pure titanium are a
good choice for children.

6. Temples and nose bridges
• The temples should not cause uncomfortable
pressure while the spectacles should stay in the
right position.
• Spring hinges are very robust and ensures that
the frames have a long life.
• The nose bridge for children's spectacles should
have a contact surface as large as possible.
• Gel-pads can also provide an alternative solution
as they sit especially softly on children's nose.

7. Sports glasses for children
• Ball sports or Judo are particularly challenging for
children wearing spectacles.
• There are also special sports spectacles for
children that, depending on the model, are made
completely out of plastic, with temples that do not
have hinges.
• An elastic strap on the temples that is worn
around the back of the head can also ensure that
the spectacles sit securely.

8. The first eyesight test
• Children should have their first eye test within the
first ten days of life. Correcting vision problems
early, when the eye is not yet fully formed, is more
successful than later. In addition, certain visual
impairments that cannot be corrected later can be
minimised, or even wholly avoided, if detected
and treated early.

9. sun protection for children's
eyes
• Children's eyes are particularly at risk from the
sun's rays. They are clearer and let far more light
through than adults' eyes. That means UV rays
can do much more damage, as kids have no
defense against the short-wave rays from the sun.
• customised sunglasses from an optician are
essential for children when they are outdoors.
