Bid farewell to the days of the geeky-looking eyewear, and get ready to turn heads around with a pair of trendy eyewear. Yes, it’s that’s simple! The city is home to numerous trendy, yet functional eyewear stores.

Step into any of the Turakhia outlets and take your pick. From normal frames to designer creations, they have it all. Be it a prescription-based, or otherwise, Turakhia is home to all of them. Choose from the high-end brands like Gucci or Hilfiger, if you have the urge to splurge, or go in for the mid-range brands that are least likely to leave a dent in your wallet. Besides, the regular frames, those feeling adventurous, can go in for a splash of colour on their frames be it a dash of red or a lightening blue to add a bit of spunk!

Looking for something that’s easy-on-the-wallet, then head to G.K.B. Opticals (Nungambakkam). Besides having a vast collection, they also have a qualified optician in-store to check your eyes, and recommend what kind of glasses to wear based on your individual requirement.

Another store that has changed the concept of eyewear is B B Shah (Pondy Bazaar). A small store and its cordial staff, who put you at ease before helping you make that big decision, is what makes this store so popular. From designer, metal and plastic frames, they have it all.

However, before you make that enviable purchase, do know what kind of frames best suit your face, as the right kind of frames makes a whole world of difference, and more importantly worth the money spent. Here are a few tips to help make your choice easier.

Time to let your eyewear do the talking, now!
