Asian fit glasses, also known as low bridge or global fit glasses, are designed to fit comfortably on and flatter a low nose bridge and high cheekbones, which are often shared by people of Asian descent. They are not limited to people of Asian descent, and anyone with rounder faces, more flat facial features, lower nose bridges, and higher cheekbones can benefit from specially-designed frames for a comfortable fit and wear.

Asian fit glasses frames have slightly bigger nose pads, which help prevent annoying nose-slippage, especially if your nose is less sharp and angular. The lenses of Asian fit glasses frames are slightly angled so that their tops lean away from your face. If you have higher cheekbones, they can sometimes touch the lenses of some glasses frames, causing your glasses to move when talking or smiling. The slight angle of the lenses on low bridge fit glasses stops this from happening, keeping your glasses or sunglasses steady and secure.

Its important to note that anyone can benefit from Asian fit frames, especially if your standard-fit glasses frequently slide down your nose. Asian fit frames are not specifically for people in the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community. In fact, there are many AAPI people who wear standard-fit frames without any problems. Similarly, there are many non-AAPI people who could benefit from Asian fit frames.
