Meridian Eyewear Venice

Meridian Eyewear Venice Prescription Glasses

Soft corners take the edge off a square shape and make it easy to wear every day. The Meridian Eyewear Venice is a unisex full-rim soft square frame, sized 53-18-143, in Brown, Lilac or Pink. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Meridian Eyewear Collection.

3 colours to choose from

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Lilac. Lilac is a soft, pale purple. It adds a confident touch of colour and suits fair and cool skin tones.

Pink. Pink is a soft pink. It pairs nicely with neutrals, white and rose gold jewellery.

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

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. Take a look at the arms: the detailing there is what makes this frame special.

The patterned finish means no two angles look quite the same.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Meridian Eyewear Venice is easy to live with.

How to wear it

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

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 18mm bridge is average. The 143mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 124mm.

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.

Lens options for the Meridian Eyewear Venice

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.

The 35mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. 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.

What you will need

Have your prescription to hand before you start. It shows the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and sometimes your PD. If the PD is missing, your optician can give it to you. Then choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as thinner lenses or a coating. You can check everything in your basket before you pay.

Made for you in our UK lab

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

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.
