The cheek area is slightly wider than the hairline and then drops into a pointed chin.
The best frames for heart shaped faces are those that are wider at the bottom (oval and round shape), light colored and rimless.

The human eye is the organ of sight closely related to the brain and is best compared to a camera.
Like a sophisticated camera, the eye has multiple discrete parts which must function together properly to produce clear vision.
The function of the eye is to convert light into an electro-chemical signal, which is then transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve.
It is in the brain that this signal is converted into "vision."
To illustrate this, we will follow the path that light takes as it travels through the eye and we will discuss the various ocular structures encountered along the path.

Astigmatism is a common eye condition that is corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or surgery.
Astigmatism is characterized by unequal curvatures of the cornea.
Astigmatism can occur in nearsighted, farsighted persons, or can be found alone, in all cases it results in blurry vision.
A person's cornea is spherical in shape amd when light enters the eye, the cornea refracts or bends light creating a clear image of the object.
However, the eye of a person with astigmatism is shaped more like a football or the back of a spoon.
