LENSES
Your frame, your lenses.
Every optical frame we sell is prescription-ready. These are the lens types and coatings that can be fitted to it.
Single vision
One prescription strength across the whole lens. The most common choice for distance or for reading.
Progressive
Distance at the top, reading at the bottom, blended in between with no visible line.
Blue-light filter
A coating that reduces the blue light reflected from screens. Available with or without a prescription.
Photochromic
Clear indoors, darkening in sunlight. One pair that works inside and out.

Which lens types and coatings we can fit to a particular frame varies. Ask us and we will confirm for the frame you are looking at.
HOW IT WORKS
Pick the frame
Choose your shape and colour, and check the three measurements against a frame you already wear.
Share your prescription
Send us a photograph or scan of a current prescription from your optometrist, including your PD if you have it.
We fit the lenses
Your lenses are cut to the frame and checked before dispatch. A glazed order takes longer to leave us than a plain frame.
This page explains the options in general terms. It is not an eye test and it is not medical advice — your optometrist should confirm which lens type and prescription is right for you.
Not sure which lens?
Send us your prescription and the frame you like. We will tell you what fits and what it costs.
