DEL100

DEL100 Prescription Glasses

Upswept corners have a way of lifting the whole face. The DEL100 is a unisex full-rim cat-eye frame, sized 51-15-135, in Brown or Pink. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Delancy range.

Brown or Pink?

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Pink. Pink is a soft pink. It is a gentle way to wear colour every day.

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

About the DEL100 design

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. The fine metal arms keep the weight down and look neat from the side.

The DEL100 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Styling tips

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

How it fits

At 51mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 15mm bridge is narrow, so it sits securely on a slimmer nose. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 117mm.

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 DEL100

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

• 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.

The 36mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. 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

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your DEL100 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

A little care goes a long way

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.

Questions we often get

Can I get varifocal lenses in the DEL100?

Yes. The 36mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the DEL100 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 51-15-135: 51mm lens width, 15mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 15mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

Who glazes my lenses?
