DEL192

DEL192 Prescription Glasses

If you want glasses that look smart and get out of the way, a rectangle is hard to beat. The DEL192 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 54-17-145, in Brown, Grey or Green. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Delancy collection.

Choosing your DEL192 colour

Brown. In Brown, the frame is striped brown. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

Grey. The Grey version is grey tortoiseshell. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Green. The Green version is green tortoiseshell. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

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.

Shape and style

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. Layered stripes of colour give the frame movement and a natural, horn-like depth.

The DEL192 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

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.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 17mm bridge is average. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 125mm.

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 DEL192

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. 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.

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.

Made for you in our UK lab

Your DEL192 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.

Looking after them

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.

Questions we often get

Can I get varifocal lenses in the DEL192?

Yes. The 38mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the DEL192 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 size is it?

It is size 54-17-145: 54mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 145mm arms, a medium fit.

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.
