D286

D286 Prescription Glasses

There is something friendly and approachable about a round frame. The D286 is a unisex full-rim metal round frame, sized 50-19-135, in Gold, Gun or Silver. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Brooklyn collection.

Choosing your D286 colour

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It brings warmth to the face and looks lovely with gold jewellery or a watch.

Gun. In Gun, the frame is gunmetal. It is a great match for cooler skin tones and a crisp, tidy look.

Silver. Silver is a clean, bright silver. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

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

Design details

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the D286 an easy pick for everyday wear.

Styling tips

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

Size and fit

With 50mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 19mm bridge is a little wider than average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 119mm.

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 D286

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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.

At 45mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so varifocal lenses have lots 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.

How your glasses are made

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your D286 and checked by our technicians before they are sent 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 D286?

Yes. The 45mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the D286 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.

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 50mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Who glazes my lenses?
