Ascari Eyewear 039

Ascari Eyewear 039 Prescription Glasses

A browline frame always looks a little bit clever. The Ascari Eyewear 039 is a unisex full-rim metal browline frame, sized 53-16-135, in Black or Burgundy. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Ascari Eyewear Collection.

Choosing your Ascari Eyewear 039 colour

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It looks great with neutral outfits and a bold lip.

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.

Design details

The stronger top line suits round, oval and heart-shaped faces, and it can make you look more awake. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Ascari Eyewear 039 is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

How it fits

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 122mm.

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 Ascari Eyewear 039

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• Varifocals if you want to see near and far without swapping glasses.
• Single vision for one task done well, such as driving, reading or screen work.
• Bifocals if you prefer a clearly defined reading area.
• Ready readers for straightforward close-up help.

The 36mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. 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. Spend a lot of time on screens? This frame is also part of our blue light glasses range.

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

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Ascari Eyewear 039. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

Keep them looking new

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.

Your questions, answered

Can I get varifocal lenses in the Ascari Eyewear 039?

Yes. The 36mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the Ascari Eyewear 039 as computer glasses?

Yes. Single vision lenses set to your screen distance, or varifocals if you also need distance vision, both work well for desk work.

What size is it?

It is size 53-16-135: 53mm lens width, 16mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 16mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

What is a browline frame?

A frame with a stronger top section that follows your eyebrows and a finer lower rim.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
