This literature review will provide guidelines involving the application of color and facial analysis for the purpose of personalized eyewear dispensing. The concept of color analysis and its various classifications will be explained to provide an understanding of how different color groups affect an individual's appearance. The influence that frame selection has on facial feature proportions and overall facial contour will be presented in a manual format. The combination of these concepts may then be used to provide the patient with the most appropriate selection of eyewear.
