Getting Your Frame Width Right
If your frames are too narrow for your face, they will put unnecessary pressure on your temples causing discomfort. A pair that’s too wide can be painful on your ears and fall off your face due to a loose fit. For an ideal fit, look for a frame that is only slightly wider than your face. If you already have a frame that fits well, measure it lengthwise along the front of your frame to find the perfect width.

Finding the Best Temple Length
Finding the right temple length for your small prescription sunglasses is another important step in finding the perfect fit. The temples should curve behind your ears comfortably, and the rest of the arm should reach evenly along your face. This measurement has a bit more flexibility in terms of range compared to the others. Try smaller lengths if you have a small face.

Bridge Width for Small Frame Prescription Sunglasses
You may think bridge width is included in the frame width, but this is a separate measurement that determines how the frame sits on your nose. Your nose is basically the anchor point of your frame. The nose bridge keeps the frame balanced and distributes weight evenly, making your shades comfy to wear.
