-- Picking out the "cool" pair - We definitely don't want our children to get teased on the playgrounds for wearing glasses. Allowing your child to help pick out their glasses will ensure you don't pick a pair that aren't "cool" while also allowing your child to feel more confident about wearing glasses. Extra enticement may be found in ultra cool features like photochromic lenses with tints that darken outdoors, which may help inspire any child to want to wear glasses. Many manufacturers copy adult styles when designing children's frames. Children may be attracted to these styles because they are more grown-up. It's not unusual for kids to ask for glasses that look just like Mom's or Dad's.
