CLIP903

CLIP903 Prescription Glasses

If you want glasses that look smart and get out of the way, a rectangle is hard to beat. The CLIP903 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 54-16-145, in Black or Blue. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Elev8 range.

Black or Blue?

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Blue. Blue is a clear, easy-to-wear blue. It reads as smart and dark from a distance, with a little more personality up close.

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

Shape and style

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. It comes with a clip-on sun lens, so one pair works indoors and outdoors.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the CLIP903 an easy pick for everyday wear.

Wearing it every day

Keep the rest of your look simple and let the frame do the talking. It works just as well with workwear as it does with weekend clothes.

Size and fit

Brand	Elev8
Colours	Black, Blue
Frame size	54-16-145 mm (lens width, bridge, arm length)
Lens depth	41 mm

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 124mm.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the CLIP903

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

• 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.

At 41mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so varifocal lenses have lots of room. 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.

Before you order

Make sure your prescription is in date; most adults in the UK are advised to have an eye test every two years, and your optician will tell you if you need one sooner. You will also need your PD, which tells our lab where to centre the lenses. With those two things ready, ordering takes a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

From our lab to you

Your CLIP903 is glazed in our UK-based lab. Once you have chosen your lenses and entered your prescription, we cut and fit the lenses and check the finished glasses before they go out.

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.

Your questions, answered

Can I get varifocal lenses in the CLIP903?

Yes. The 41mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the CLIP903 as computer glasses?

Yes. Single vision lenses set to your screen distance, or varifocals if you also need distance vision, both work well for desk work.

What size is it?

It is size 54-16-145: 54mm lens width, 16mm bridge and 145mm arms, a medium fit.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 16mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

How does the clip-on work?

The sun lens attaches to the front of the frame, so you can switch from glasses to sunglasses in seconds.

Who glazes my lenses?
