D220

D220 Prescription Glasses

Some frames just suit almost everyone. Rounded squares are high on that list. The D220 is a unisex full-rim rounded square frame, sized 46-21-140, in Black. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Brooklyn range.

About the D220 colour

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

The details

The rounded corners and straight lines balance most face shapes, especially oval, square and heart-shaped faces.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the D220 is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

Keep the rest of your look simple and let the frame do the talking. It works just as well with workwear as it does with weekend clothes.

How it fits

At 46mm per lens, it is on the smaller side, which is ideal if most frames feel too wide. The 21mm bridge is wider than average, which suits a broader nose bridge. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 113mm.

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 D220

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

• 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 40mm 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.

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 D220 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

Clean your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than your jumper, keep them in their case when they are in your bag, and do not leave them on a sunny car dashboard. Our lens care guide has more tips.

FAQs

Can I get varifocal lenses in the D220?

Yes. The 40mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the D220 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.

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 46mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Will it suit a wider nose bridge?

Yes. The 21mm bridge is wider than most frames.

Do you make the lenses yourselves?

Yes. Every pair is made to order in our UK optical lab, where your lenses are cut to your prescription and fitted into your frame.
