Paul Costelloe Sun 84

Paul Costelloe Sun 84 Prescription Sunglasses

Sunglasses are so much better when you can actually see through them. The Paul Costelloe Sun 84 is a pair of unisex full-rim square sunglasses, sized 53-19-140, in Brown Mottle, Grey / Blue or Matt Black. It can be made with your prescription, so you can see clearly and keep the sun out at the same time. It is part of our Paul Costelloe Collection.

Choosing your Paul Costelloe Sun 84 colour

Brown Mottle. Brown Mottle is a mottled brown. It is softer than black and suits brown, auburn and red hair.

Grey / Blue. Grey / Blue mixes grey and blue. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Matt Black. Matt Black is a soft, non-shiny black. It is shown with grey lenses. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Why you will like it

Square lenses add structure to round and oval faces and make features look more defined.

The Paul Costelloe Sun 84 is an easy everyday pair of prescription sunglasses for driving, walking and weekends outdoors.

Styling tips

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

How it fits

At 53mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 19mm bridge is a little wider than average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 125mm.

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.

Prescription lenses for the Paul Costelloe Sun 84

The Paul Costelloe Sun 84 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.

The 38mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses plenty 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.

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 Paul Costelloe Sun 84 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

A little care goes a long way

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.
