Planet 47

Planet 47 Prescription Glasses

If you want glasses that look smart and get out of the way, a rectangle is hard to beat. The Planet 47 is a unisex full-rim metal rectangular frame in Tortoise, Matt Black/Mottle, Black, Matt Black, Crystal or Crystal/Matt Black. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Planet range.

6 colours to choose from

Tortoise. Tortoise is a classic tortoiseshell. It is a versatile choice that works for most people.

Matt Black/Mottle. Matt Black/Mottle is a soft, non-shiny black. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Matt Black. Matt Black is a soft, non-shiny black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Crystal. The Crystal version is crystal clear. It is a fresh, modern choice that suits almost any skin tone.

Crystal/Matt Black. Crystal/Matt Black is a clear, see-through finish. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Why you will like it

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The crystal finish is clear and fresh, and it lets your features take centre stage.

The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

The Planet 47 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Styling tips

It works with workwear and weekend clothes alike, which is exactly what you want from an everyday frame.

Lens options for the Planet 47

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• Varifocals if you want to see near and far without swapping glasses.
• Single vision for one task done well, such as driving, reading or screen work.
• Bifocals if you prefer a clearly defined reading area.
• Ready readers for straightforward close-up help.

With a stronger prescription, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges slim, and an anti-reflective coating cuts reflections from screens and street lights.

Ordering online is simple

You need a valid prescription from your optician and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Many opticians include your PD on the prescription; if yours does not, just ask for it. Choose your colour, pick your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are unsure about size, compare the measurements above with a pair you already wear.

Made for you in our UK lab

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your Planet 47 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

Keep them looking new

Clean your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than your jumper, keep them in their case when they are in your bag, and do not leave them on a sunny car dashboard. Our lens care guide has more tips.
