DEL140

DEL140 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular glasses add a little structure to the face without any fuss. The DEL140 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 56-15-145, in Grey. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Delancy collection.

About the DEL140 colour

Grey. In Grey, the frame is striped grey. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

The details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The striped finish adds texture that changes as the light catches it.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the DEL140 an easy pick for everyday wear.

Styling tips

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

How it fits

With 56mm lenses, this is a larger frame that suits wider faces. The 15mm bridge is narrow, so it sits securely on a slimmer nose. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 127mm.

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 DEL140

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

• 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 38mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses plenty of room. Want lighter lenses? A high-index lens is thinner than standard plastic. Pair it with an anti-reflective coating for less glare when you drive after dark.

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.

From our lab to you

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your DEL140 and checked by our technicians before they are sent 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.

Everyday wear

Good everyday glasses should be comfortable from breakfast to bedtime. Light materials, a secure fit and a classic look all help, and this frame ticks those boxes. Add the right lenses and it will handle screens, reading and driving with ease.
