Quick answer: start with a pair you already wear, match lens width within 1-2 mm, and keep the bridge close for stable, day-long comfort.
Fit first. If your current frame feels right, use it as a template. A slightly wider lens relaxes front pressure; a closer bridge resists sliding. Take two nearby sizes and check the mirror in daylight—your eyes should sit centered, and the temples should feel even.
Comfort-first optical picks - Kata eyeglasses
Frames arrive with demo lenses; your optician fits your prescription. Acetate feels smooth and warms subtly against the skin, while metal keeps weight airy and lines crisp. If you’re split between materials, skim an eyeglass materials guide and choose the finish you’ll wear most.

FAQ
How do I pick the right size in Kata eyeglasses?
Use a pair you already wear as your baseline. Match lens width within 1-2 mm and keep the bridge close for stability. Try two nearby sizes to see how the look settles across a full day. Temples should sit evenly without hot spots behind the ears.
What do numbers like 47-19-140 mean?
They are millimeters for lens width, bridge width, and temple length. Start by keeping lens width close to a comfortable pair you own, then choose a bridge that holds steady without pinching. If fronts feel tight, step lens width up slightly for relief.
Which Kata shapes suit round or angular faces?
Contrast helps. Angular rectangles sharpen soft, round features, while oval edges soften strong lines. Keep total width near your cheek line for balance, then fine-tune the bridge for comfort. A quick daylight selfie makes differences easier to spot.
Do Kata frames use metal or acetate?
You’ll find both. Metal tends to feel lighter and crisp on the face; acetate brings smooth edges and color depth. Pick by comfort first, then by the finish you’ll enjoy wearing most. Materials are listed on each product page for clarity.
Can I put my prescription in Kata frames?
Yes. Frames ship with non-prescription demo lenses; your optician installs your exact prescription and can adjust the temples for even pressure. Bring the frame’s measurements to your appointment for faster lens selection and alignment.
Do the frames include a case or pouch?
Listings typically include a protective case or pouch. Check the “What’s included” note on each product page to confirm accessories for that style. Keep packaging until you’re sure the fit works, so you can return or exchange within the standard window.
Are these Kata styles genuine?
We sell authentic Kata products and list model details on each product page. Review the photos, specifications, and measurements to compare confidently. If you’re new to the brand, use a frame you already own as a sizing reference before ordering.
Do Kata eyeglasses fit narrow or medium faces better?
Both, depending on the model. A 47 mm lens often reads narrow-medium, while around 51 mm lands closer to a classic medium. Match width to a pair you like, then fine-tune bridge and temple length to settle pressure points comfortably.
Are the hinges spring-loaded on these frames?
Hinge type is listed per model. Many listings use standard hinges; when spring hinges are present, they’ll be called out in the specs. If temples feel tight, an optician can make small adjustments so pressure is distributed more evenly.
What is your return window if the fit doesn’t work?
There’s a 30-day return window for items in new condition with all original accessories. Try frames indoors first, keep packaging, and decide within a few days. The product page shows measurements so you can compare before purchasing.
