X-Eyes Lite 16

X-Eyes Lite 16 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular frames are the dependable all-rounders of eyewear. The X-Eyes Lite 16 is a men’s rimless rectangular frame, sized 55-18-145, in Gold. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our X-Eyes Lite collection.

The colour

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It brings warmth to the face and looks lovely with gold jewellery or a watch.

Design details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. With no rim around the lenses, the frame almost disappears on the face.

The X-Eyes Lite 16 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Wearing it every day

Choose the darker colour for the office and the lighter one for a more relaxed look. Either way, it is an easy frame to wear every day.

Size and fit

With 55mm lenses, this is a larger frame that suits wider faces. The 18mm bridge is average. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 128mm.

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.

Lens options for the X-Eyes Lite 16

Your optician’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• 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.

With a stronger prescription, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges slim, and an anti-reflective coating cuts reflections from screens and street lights.

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

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your X-Eyes Lite 16. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

A little care goes a long way

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.

Who it is for

This frame is a good fit for anyone who wants reliable everyday glasses without fuss. It works for long days at a desk, the school run, driving and catching up with friends, and it pairs with most wardrobes. If you are replacing an old pair, compare the measurements above with the glasses you wear now.

Questions we often get

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 55mm lenses it suits wider faces.

Can I wear the X-Eyes Lite 16 for driving?

Yes. Single vision or varifocal lenses work well for driving, and an anti-reflective coating helps cut glare from headlights at night.

What does rimless mean?

There is no frame around the lenses. They are held by the bridge and arms only, which makes the glasses very light.

Where are my lenses made?

In our UK optical lab. They are cut to your prescription, fitted into your frame and checked before they are sent out.
