Many celebrities wear glasses - think Benjamin Franklin, Winston Churchill, John Lennon, Janis Joplin, Steve Jobs, Harry Potter, and rounder people - and frames are always stylish. Also known as round frames, round glasses or tea towels, they can be stylish, artistic or intelligent, depending on their design - and the person wearing them.

Do circle glasses mens fit you? That's a good question. Let's take a look at why round glasses have stuck around for so long and who should wear them. We will also discuss some different types of round frames and how to choose the right one for you.

Why are round eyes so popular?

Round frames were first invented in the 13th century, and at that time, if you wanted to see better, round glasses were your only option. Frames at that time were made of materials such as iron and leather and were expensive.

Without really going out of fashion, they made a comeback in the 1920s, and then again in the 1960s and 1970s - the last time largely due to John Lennon. They are now worn by everyone from rock stars to intellectuals to politicians. No matter how young or old you are, they are age-appropriate and they can be worn with anything from denim jeans to suits or cocktail dresses.

There is also a primitive psychological factor involved. As humans, we are naturally attracted to circles. They are simple, natural and complete, evoking stability, security, gentleness and peace. No wonder we like them so much.

Who should wear a round frame?

Round frames may have unlimited uses, but the shape of the frame does suit some people better than others, depending on their face shape.

They are very effective for wearers with sharper, more angular features - such as a square face or jawline - to soften and balance them out. They also make rectangular, diamond, triangular or heart-shaped faces look better.

If you have a round face, you may be better off choosing a square frame, as this will provide a contrast that balances out your features. That said, if you really want to challenge this advice, try round glasses with transparent borders.

Although some of their appeal lies in their retro feel, especially as retro styles have become popular again, round eyeglass frames have evolved a lot since they started long ago. Now, you can find them in many different styles and materials, and they can be used for different purposes.

By definition, circular frames are curved and are more or less the same width and height. But that still leaves plenty of room for change.

The frames can be perfectly round or slightly elongated into an oval shape. Pilot frames and cat-eye frames can also be roughly classified as circular frames, although with some distortion.

Your round glasses can have thick or thin frames and come in different materials, including acetate, plastic or metal frames.

Your round frames may have over-the-counter clear lenses that are designed for style. Or, if you wear prescription glasses, round frames can accommodate both single prescription lenses and progressive patients.

Round glasses are popular in reading glasses, over-the-counter or prescription sunglasses, and vintage round sunglasses never go out of style. Or add a blue light filter and you have the perfect pair of glasses for computer work.

Generally speaking, round eyeglasses frames are light and strong, and they are comfortable to wear.
