D193

D193 Prescription Glasses

A clean rectangular frame works at the office, at home and everywhere in between. The D193 is a unisex full-rim metal rectangular frame, sized 57-18-145, in Black or Gun. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Brooklyn range.

Black or Gun?

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.

Gun. In Gun, the frame is gunmetal. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

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

About the D193 design

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The frame runs along the top of the lenses only, so the lower edge is open and your view stays clear.

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

The D193 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Styling tips

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.

How it fits

At 57mm per lens, it is a generous size, a good pick if standard frames feel tight. The 18mm bridge is average. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 132mm.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Lens options for the D193

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

• Single vision: the same prescription from edge to edge.
• Bifocal: distance at the top and a reading segment at the bottom.
• Varifocal: a smooth change from distance to reading, with no line.
• Ready readers: a fixed magnification for books, phones and screens.

The 39mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses plenty of room. Want lighter lenses? A high-index lens is thinner than standard plastic. Pair it with an anti-reflective coating for less glare when you drive after dark.

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.

From our lab to you

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your D193. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

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.

Your questions, answered

Can I get varifocal lenses in the D193?

Yes. The 39mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Is the D193 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.

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 57mm lenses it suits wider faces.

What does semi-rimless mean?

The frame runs along the top of the lenses only. The lower edge is held by a fine line, so the bottom of the lens is open.

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.
