Visage VS176

Visage VS176 Prescription Sunglasses

If you wear glasses, prescription sunglasses are the easiest upgrade you can make. The Visage VS176 is a pair of unisex full-rim metal aviator sunglasses, sized 57-16-140, in Gold or Gunmetal. It can be made with your prescription, so you can see clearly and keep the sun out at the same time. It belongs to the Visage range.

Choosing your Visage VS176 colour

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It is shown with grey lenses. It is a warm, elegant choice that pairs nicely with earthy colours.

Gunmetal. Gunmetal is a dark, smoky grey metal. It is shown with grey lenses. 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 Visage VS176 design

The aviator shape suits oval, square and heart-shaped faces. Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

Keep the Visage VS176 in the car, take it to the beach or wear it on your lunch break; it is ready for bright summer days.

How to wear it

Easy to wear with almost anything, from beachwear to a smart jacket.

Size and fit

With 57mm lenses, this is a larger frame that suits wider faces. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 130mm.

To check the fit, look at the three numbers printed inside the arm of glasses you already own. If they are within two or three millimetres, this frame should feel similar.

Prescription lenses for the Visage VS176

The Visage VS176 can be made with any of these lens types:

• 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. 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 Visage VS176. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

Looking after them

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.
