Zenith 100

Zenith 100 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular glasses add a little structure to the face without any fuss. The Zenith 100 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 52-18-140, in Brown, Green or Navy. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Zenith collection.

Which colour is you?

Brown. In Brown, the frame is brown and amber with a soft fade. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

Green. The Green version is green with a soft fade. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

Navy. In Navy, the frame is navy with a soft fade. It brings a cool, calm touch of colour that suits most skin tones.

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

Why you will like it

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The colour fades from darker at the top to lighter at the bottom, which gives the frame depth and keeps it from looking heavy.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Zenith 100 is easy to live with. The Zenith 100 is an easy frame to wear every day.

Styling tips

Because it is unisex, it is easy to share the look across the household. Pick the colour that matches your wardrobe rather than worrying about who it is designed for.

Size and fit

The 52mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 18mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 122mm.

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 Zenith 100

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• 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.

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.

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.

From our lab to you

Your Zenith 100 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.
