Answer first: aim for a balanced fit, then choose the cat-eye that flatters your features.
Fit & size. Most frames here land in the versatile 50-53 mm lens width band with bridges between 15-18 mm and temples around 135-140 mm. If you prefer a slightly narrower feel, start near 49-50 mm; for a roomier view, try 52-53 mm. Spring hinges help the arms flex gently, easing pressure during long days.
Lenses. These frames arrive with demo lenses; your optician will fit prescription lenses to match your needs.
Face shape. The upswept edge of cat-eye profiles adds lift to round and oval faces, while softer ovals smooth angular features. Not sure where to start? See our Face shape guide for a quick checklist, then explore curated cat-eye eyeglasses on the site.
Materials & care. Acetate offers rich color depth and a satisfying, lightweight feel. Most listings include a protective case or pouch - check the “What’s included” note on each product page before you buy. If temples feel snug, small adjustments at an optical shop can fine-tune comfort and help relieve temple pressure.
“Light, stylish, and easy to wear. My optician swapped in my prescription quickly, and the spring hinges make them super comfortable.”
Confidence & cadence. If you’re comparing fits, our Return policy outlines the basics. Availability changes regularly - check each product page to confirm current options.

FAQ
What defines Lisa Loeb eyewear in this collection?
Signature cat-eye and select oval profiles, crafted in acetate with clean lines and comfortable spring hinges. Colors range from classic tortoise and cocoa-brown to playful mineral blue. Each frame keeps the artist’s timeless, bookish-cool vibe while staying easy to wear at work or on the weekend.
Do Lisa Loeb eyeglasses arrive with demo lenses?
Yes. Frames ship with clear demo lenses to show shape and color. Your optician will replace them with prescription lenses—single-vision or multifocal—based on your Rx and pupillary distance. Bring the frame’s size (e.g., 50-18-140) so the lab can confirm lens thickness and edge clearance.
Which Lisa Loeb frames suit a narrow face?
Start with lens widths around 49-51 mm and bridges near 15-16 mm for a snug, centered fit. Shorter temples (about 135 mm) help keep weight balanced. Cat-eye shapes with slimmer rims can visually slim the face while keeping a crisp, expressive look.
How do I choose a cat-eye shape for my face?
Match the rise and rim thickness to your features: softer rises flatter round faces; sharper, higher corners lift oval or heart shapes. For a quick walkthrough, see our Face shape guide before comparing sizes on the product pages.
Are spring hinges common on Lisa Loeb frames?
Many models include spring hinges to improve comfort and durability by letting the temples flex outward slightly. That reduces pressure at the sides of your head and helps the fit stay secure over time—handy if you put glasses on and off throughout the day.
What materials are used in these Lisa Loeb eyeglasses?
Acetate is the hero here: it allows saturated colors, laminated patterns, and a smooth handfeel while keeping weight moderate. Full-rim builds add stability around the lenses, and the material is friendly to precise fitting if you need small adjustments at an optical shop.
Are these Lisa Loeb frames authentic?
Yes—purchased here, your frames come from an authorized retailer at ModaFrames. Product pages list official model names and sizes so you can verify details and compare color options before ordering or taking them to your optician.
What are typical bridge and temple measurements?
Bridges generally fall between 15-18 mm in this selection, with temples around 135-140 mm. Use the product’s full triplet (lens-bridge-temple) to gauge fit. If you’re between sizes, a shop can nudge temple curve and nose fit for comfort.
Can my optician fit progressive lenses into these frames?
In most cases, yes—optical labs can fit single-vision or multifocal lenses depending on your prescription and the frame’s size. Bring your PD and lens preferences; your optician will confirm corridor room and edge thickness for a clean result.
What if the fit isn’t right after I try them?
First, have an optician adjust the temples and bridge for comfort. If you still need to compare a different size or model, review the store’s return window and follow the steps on your order page. Availability can change, so check each product for current options.
