One disadvantage of ordering online is that it is difficult to judge the size of frame on your face. The frames I ordered are actually too large.Idid try the up-loading a photo of myself and trying the frames on, put it wasn't that successful. Over-all I am delighted with the glasses.

However, this does mean that they are a little heavier that they look and take a time to get used to, although having had a lighter but similar pair for the last year, this is likely to heighten that difference.
