Elite 4586

Elite 4586 Prescription Glasses

A clean rectangular frame works at the office, at home and everywhere in between. The Elite 4586 is a men’s full-rim metal rectangular frame, sized 52-17-140, in Black or Brown. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Elite collection.

Choosing your Elite 4586 colour

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

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 Elite 4586 design

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Elite 4586 is a strong choice.

Wearing it every day

Choose the darker colour for the office and the lighter one for a more relaxed look. Either way, it is an easy frame to wear every day.

How it fits

The 52mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 121mm.

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 Elite 4586

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

• 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.

The 35mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. If your prescription is high, a high-index lens keeps things thin. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is a sensible extra for everyday wear.

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.

Made for you in our UK lab

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Elite 4586. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

Looking after them

Use lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before putting your glasses down, and store them in a hard case. Our guide to looking after your lenses covers the rest.

Questions we often get

Can I get varifocal lenses in the Elite 4586?

Yes. The 35mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Is the Elite 4586 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.

What size is it?

It is size 52-17-140: 52mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 140mm arms, a medium fit.

Who glazes my lenses?
