What specifically defines an Afro-American frame.

To start with something that fits their bridge or lack of it. Not just adjustable nose pads. I'm sure there are companies focusing on that market.

Look for companies that offer "Asian Fit bridges" - Charmant might be a good start. I have found them to be good resource for bridges that are difficult to fit.

Wide frames too, very wide.

When I worked in Connecticut 150,000 years ago, ESSENCE and CAZAL were both great sellers in that demographic. I can't vouch for any of their current styles, as I said it has been 150,000 years since I sold any of them.

Prologue has great asian fit frames TC Chartan and Alexandra Peng collections. They have kids sizes and regular, just introduces some large ones that are the cat's meow for the larger african faces. We use a lot of them, and it's pretty easy to get an exclusive area where you are their only account. Their website drives patients to us from up to 100 miles away.
