So, apparently THIS is why you’re NOT getting matches on Tinder

Choosing photos for your Tinder profile is an absolute minefield.

The name of the game is to share snaps which help illustrate what you're all about, (the edited version, obvs) but according to a recent study, it doesn't matter how flattering your photos are because apparently no one makes passes at girls wearing glasses.

No, seriously.

The study, which was conducted by the uber-popular dating app, established that your chances of finding The One are reduced by a staggering 12% if you're rocking a pair of bifocals in your profile.

Commenting on the results, dating expert Dr Jessica Carbino explained that being able to see the eyes of a potential  partner is paramount  – something which is somewhat hindered if a possible match is wearing specs.

According to Marie Claire, Dr Carbino understands an individual's reluctance to swipe right on a glasses-wearer, saying: "Seeing the iris gives us clues as to whether you can be trusted."

Here, unless they're wearing sunglasses in every picture, that argument does NOT hold up.
