What kind of glass frame looks good on bald head/crop hair cut ?
Antimidas:
I have thin wire frames on mine. I will post a pic tomorrow when I have better light than a webcam offers. I personally Hate, loathe, despise the thick black frames on anyone. In fact, in the military, we called those BCG's - Birth Control Glasses. A woman takes one look at those, and no sex for you. :)
Unfortunately, I no longer have the contact lens option. I lacerated my cornea in February and due to medical negligence in the emergency room, I ended up with a baterial infection that ate away all but one final layer of my cornea in my right eye. I now require a corneal transplant and will be going back in late September for re-evaluation for surgery. I am holding out for my Aussie mates who successfully harvested stem cells from a patient's good eye to regrow a fresh cornea in the lab for transplant. No anti-rejection medications, faster recover and no need for synthetics. Nearly as good as nature. If I can get that, it would ne golden. Until then, i will deal with being 80% blind in my right eye.
Lessons to take away. 1) Stay away from the thick frames if you want a sex life. 2) Take care with contacts. 3) You only get one set of eyes. Treat them well.

LMFAO!
And you may be interested to know that I don't think I have ever used that obnoxious acryonym anywhere, ever except for when I'm complaining about the overuse of trendy acryonyms on the internet. But LMFAO! LMFAO indeed! I just was not expecting to read something like that!

On a serious note, you only have the final layer of your one cornea? Wow, because the cornea is a thin piece of tissue when healthy. I think a normal cornea is only about 500 microns thick. I hope things go well for you. Will topolink lasik (aka "HD" lasik) be an option, or mandantory, on your cornea after it is regrown?
Antimidas:
glad I could truly humor you. :)
The eye has an amazing ability to heal. After a month of daily eye doctor visits and tons of antibiotics, the bacterial ulcer closed and new tissue formed over the cornea. The problem is that it left a white scar tissue on top of the lens that is so deep it cannot be lasered off. It can only be cut out and replaced. The side effect is an 80% loss of vision in the dead center of my focus and a 45% loss in the periphery. I have those halos that many lasik patients talk about and any white light at night can be absolutely blinding as it just obstructs the view of everything out of that eye. According to my Harvard educated opthamologist (sp?), I am no longer a candidate for lasik nor soft contacts because of the trench left in the surface of my eye and the scar depth. But the damage might not be severe enough to warrant the problems that would come along with a transplant. i will find out on September 24th if that has changed. Bummer.
But enought about me. Things will work out. I no longer want to kill the ER doctor that caused the damage through his lack of care and misdiagnosis of a croneal ulcer. But I still think my house should be paid for. >:D
Ming the Merciless:
If you are trying to distract from baldness, then big, black frames (the joke ones with a fake nose and mustache) will do the trick. If you are indifferent to responses to being bald, then the least obtrusive frames will show the gawkers that the whole head is a package, take it or leave it.
This a response from a BBC, who likes the smooth look, and hides it neither under a cap, nor favors head-based distractions (ugly, obtrusive eye-wear; flamboyantly dyed facial hair; neck tattoos [Ugh!]).
If you ain't got it, flaunt it. That's Ming's advice.
Antimidas:
Ok. I said I would post a picture with glasses and no shades. Thin wire frame. Imagine the bald Buddy Holly look if you still want to consider the thick frames. *shiver*
