Call them nerd, hipster or geek – these glasses have an undeniable quirky charm. They're a fantastic style accessory to help you express your style or stand out in a crowd. We can't promise our nerd glasses will make anyone smarter – but you'll definitely look it!
With their thick frames and iconic rectangular shape, nerd glasses have a distinctively retro feel, à la Buddy Holly. At DrEyewear, we offer them in a few variations. The thick frames in dark or neutral shades are a classic staple. If you want to add a stylish twist, try out our nerd glasses in an unexpected shade such as red, green or tortoiseshell.
Gone are the days when 'geek chic' meant unflattering frames and thick, coke-bottle lenses that made the wearer's eyes look distorted. These days – the possibilities are endless!
Nerd glasses are usually characterized by thicker and chunkier frames in an angular shape. However, many modern eyewear retailers offer a lot of variations and options for you to rock this style, your way.
These include:
At DrEyewear, we stock nerd glasses in a huge range of shapes and designs. This means you'll easily be able to find the perfect pair to match your unique face shape and style preferences. Whether you prefer metal glasses, acetate, or plastic nerd glasses – just take your pick.
This style looks great on both men and women. If you're not sure if a pair will suit you, you can also use our Virtual Try On feature to see what our nerd frames will look like on your face, in real-time.
Even if you don't require prescription glasses, you can still rock our nerd glasses as a fashion accessory by clicking the 'plano' lens option when you check out.
At DrEyewear, we offer high-index lens options for most of our frames. This is perfect for folks who require stronger prescriptions. In the past, a strong prescription would require thick lenses that can be unflattering. With high-index lenses, you can now opt for a thinner lens that won't distort your eyes or create a coke-bottle effect.
Some people say that glasses make you look smarter. Whether or not that's true – we definitely love nerd glasses for their quirky and intellectual appeal. They're the perfect blend of brains and beauty thanks to the way they frame the face and create a smolderingly sexy appeal. It's no wonder they're a popular choice for students, professionals and creative folk!
