Paul Costelloe Sun 92

Paul Costelloe Sun 92 Prescription Sunglasses

Sunglasses are so much better when you can actually see through them. The Paul Costelloe Sun 92 is a pair of unisex full-rim rectangular sunglasses, sized 54-16-140, in Brown Mottle, Grey or Navy. 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.

Which colour is you?

Brown Mottle. The Brown Mottle version is brown tortoiseshell. It is shown with gradient lenses. It is softer than black and suits brown, auburn and red hair.

Grey. Grey is a soft, neutral grey. It is a great match for cooler skin tones and a crisp, tidy look.

Navy. Navy is a deep, dark blue. It is shown with grey lenses. It looks great with blue or grey eyes and pairs easily with denim and white.

Each colour is shown in the gallery, so you can compare them side by side before you decide.

Design details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition.

Keep the Paul Costelloe Sun 92 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

Keep a pair in the car and another in your bag and you will never squint at the glare again.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 124mm.

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.

Prescription lenses for the Paul Costelloe Sun 92

The Paul Costelloe Sun 92 can be made with any of these lens types:

• 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 34mm lens depth is on the slim side, so single vision or bifocal lenses usually work best. 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

Your Paul Costelloe Sun 92 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

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.
