Visage Plastic 4520

Visage Plastic 4520 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular frames are the dependable all-rounders of eyewear. The Visage Plastic 4520 is a women’s full-rim plastic rectangular frame, sized 54-17-140, in Black, Blue or Grey. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Visage range.

Which colour is you?

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

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.

Grey. The Grey version is matte beige-grey. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Still torn? Think about what you wear on an ordinary weekday, not on a night out. That is the colour you will be happiest with.

Why you will like it

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The matte finish looks modern and keeps fingerprints and shine to a minimum.

Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Visage Plastic 4520 is a strong choice.

Wearing it every day

Match the frame colour to something you wear often, such as a favourite scarf or bag, for a pulled-together look. Neutral make-up keeps the focus on your eyes.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 17mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 125mm.

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 Visage Plastic 4520

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. 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. Spend a lot of time on screens? This frame is also part of our blue light glasses range.

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

Your Visage Plastic 4520 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

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 Visage Plastic 4520?

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

Is the Visage Plastic 4520 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 54-17-140: 54mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 140mm arms, a medium fit.

What does matte mean?

A soft, non-shiny finish.

Do you make the lenses yourselves?

Yes. Every pair is made to order in our UK optical lab, where your lenses are cut to your prescription and fitted into your frame.
