Saringa

Saringa Prescription Glasses

Round frames soften the face in a way square ones just cannot. The Saringa is a women’s full-rim plastic round frame in Red Mix, Green Mix or Purple Mix. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Infusion range.

Choosing your Saringa colour

Red Mix. The Red Mix version is red and black. It adds warmth without being too bright, and it suits most skin tones.

Green Mix. In Green Mix, the frame is green and black. It is unusual without being loud, and it looks fantastic with red, auburn or dark hair.

Purple Mix. In Purple Mix, the frame is purple and tortoiseshell. It is softer than it sounds and looks lovely with grey or silver hair.

Each colour is shown in the gallery, so you can compare them side by side before you decide.

The details

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Saringa is a strong choice.

How to wear it

For work, pair it with a crisp shirt or blazer. At the weekend it looks just as good with a T-shirt and jeans.

Size and fit

The 51mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces.

To check the fit, look at the three numbers printed inside the arm of glasses you already own. If they are within two or three millimetres, this frame should feel similar.

Lens options for the Saringa

Your optician’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• Single vision: one prescription across the whole lens, for distance, reading or the computer.
• Varifocal: near, intermediate and distance in one lens, with no visible line.
• Bifocal: a separate reading segment in the lower part of the lens.
• Ready readers: simple magnification if you just need help with close work.

If your prescription is high, a high-index lens keeps things thin. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is a sensible extra for everyday wear.

What you will need

Have your prescription to hand before you start. It shows the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and sometimes your PD. If the PD is missing, your optician can give it to you. Then choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as thinner lenses or a coating. You can check everything in your basket before you pay.

How your glasses are made

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Saringa. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

A little care goes a long way

Rinse off any grit before you wipe, dry the lenses with a clean microfibre cloth, and take your glasses off with both hands so the arms stay aligned. See our lens care guide for more.

A second pair?

Plenty of people keep more than one pair of glasses: one for work, one for home, or a spare in the car. A second pair also means you are never stuck if your main glasses are being repaired. This frame is an easy choice for either role.

FAQs

Is the Saringa comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
