    I need frame suggestions.

    I have a "pumpkin head", big with a 72 PD, and want a stylishly small frame.

    I need something with a large bridge, like a 24. Bowed temples don't solve the problem of temporally displaced pupils in my eyewire. So many frames would look great if the bridge was 4 mm larger.

    What's the largest bridge available?

    Suggestions?

    If you have E.Frames, (I don't anymore) you can enter a E. Search for all over 23 bridge. If any are available they will turn up.

    Hi Harry,

    A good solution is the rimless mount line "MINIMA".

    They have extra wide bridge pieces, and extra wide endpieces so the lenses can be centered around their eyes, not their head...

    It is very good quality, and the designs are great. One of the owners, Gilbert Chamby was the Pres and CEO of Lugene Opticians years ago, and another partner is a longtime frame designer from Paris who used to design alot of the Lugene collections.

    Hope this helps,

    Laurie

    Hello Harry

    I believe the Carlos from Luxottica can be ordered in HUGE sizes and a wide bridge. Some are custom sizes which taker a little longer to get but would be worth the wait.
