    Wondering how to wearing headphones with glasses? It’s a fact that wearing this accessory when you are a bespectacled person can be quite uncomfortable, but it doesn’t have to be this way. You just need to learn how to wear them in the right way that they don’t hurt your ears.

    Sure, it will not be as easier to wear headphones with glasses as it is easy for people who don’t have to wear glasses every day. Yet there are specially designed headphones in the market for people with glasses so you can just learn to wear them and you will be able to use these them for quite a long time.

    Headphones With Glasses

    How to select the best headphones (when you also wear glasses)

    There are a number of features that will ensure that the headphones you select really provide you comfort while you wear them. These features will also ensure that the sound quality is not compromised just because you have to buy headphones that are suitable to wear with glasses. Here are these features that you must keep in mind while buying headphones.

    1. Select over ear headphones

    Unlike on ear headphones, over ear headphones provide pressure more comfortably. Rather than placing pressure directly on ears, over ear headphones encompass ears with the ear cups. This reduces discomfort to a certain level. It also reduces that pain-sandwich like feel that on-ear headphones create that crush the plastic arm between your skull and ear lobe.

    Using the over ear type also provides a relaxed cushioning to your ears so your ears don’t feel too much presses. Though these headphones are worn on head, still they are not heavy and your head doesn’t hurt while wearing them.

    2. Material used in ear pads

    At the point when you’re utilizing earphones with glasses, comfort isn’t the main concern: sound quality is profoundly influenced by a legitimate fit. A lot of earphones incorporate leather or synthetic ear pads, and these firm materials leave holes around your glasses. Therefore, your music quality is corrupted, a result of hear-able concealing. This is the point at which a moderately noisy sound makes it hard to see a generally calm one.

    3. Ear pads with Fabric and velour are best

    Headphones in which soft materials such as velour, fabric or suede are used to make ear pads are most comfortable for your ears. These ear pads reduce any harsh effect on your skin and also the pressure because of the glasses is reduce because of these soft fabrics so the pain in very much reduced.

    Velour is used on premium headsets, but you can always buy them separately to replace on other headphones which have low quality pads. If you get a headphone which have large ear cups and velour padding, you can rest assured that they will provide high quality sound and reduce any ear pain that you might feel because of wearing glasses. These ear pads are easy to use for hours with glasses and even longer time without them, according to customer reviews.

    If you would rather want a more affordable option, you can go for fabric headphones. This type is made of mesh and fabric, which make the them light and soft. Yet the fabric option is not so comfortable and can be a pain in your ears. As the cushioning in the fabric ear pad is not very thick. So if you go for these headphones, be sure to check them first.

    There are some headphones such as Razor headsets that are designed to enhance your eyesight while you wear them. These headsets put pressure on your temporal lobe while you wear them, which alleviate your eye sight.

    Clamping force of the headphones

    Clamping force is the force with which the headphones are enclosed around your head. The clamping force can result in them hurting your ears more when you are wearing glasses. So it is best to check the pressure that the headphone is going to put on your ears as the glasses will already be putting pressure on your skull pretty much already that can result in double pain.

    Another factor is the size of your head. If your head is smaller, you will feel relatively less pain when wearing headphones with glasses. So you can imagine that your child will be having little to no pain when they are wearing big ones with glasses. While if you have big head, the clamping force of the headphones will effect much more on your ears.

    Types of glasses frames

    The type of glasses frames you like to wear, will also have an effect on the pain exerted on your ear and skull. Just like headphones, there are many shapes and sizes available in glasses frames as well. The arms of the glasses are also available in different styles. For more related articles visit bariway.com

    The comfort to your ears while you wear them with glasses has less to do with the shape of the glasses and more to do with the style and size of the arm of the glasses that you are wearing.

    The material and thickness of the arm of the glasses matter too. Thin, flat-armed frames employ less pain to your ears as compared to the thick round-armed glasses. The flat armed frames leave large surface area uncovered so the pressure that is being put on your ears because of the clamping force is less severe.

    So if you wear glasses regularly, and have to use headphones on a daily routine, it is probably best to change the glasses frame or think about getting a new one, which will surely provide more comfort.

    Final word

    Wearing headphones with glasses doesn’t have to be painful. People mostly wear them to listen to music or play games, which basically means that they are wearing them to enjoy their time. The pain caused in the skull or behind the ear lobe because of wearing them over glasses can ruin the whole enjoyment and can result in a new distress in its own.

    Consider the above mentioned points if you want to have a comfortable experience while wearing headphones over glasses and you will be surprised with the results.
