Freya Kay

Freya Kay Prescription Glasses

A softly squared frame is one of the most versatile shapes around. The Freya Kay is a unisex full-rim metal soft square frame, sized 53-17-135, in Burgundy or Grey. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Burgundy or Grey: which one is you?

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It is rich and confident, and it looks stunning with dark hair.

Grey. The Grey version is grey tortoiseshell. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Why you will like it

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. The fine metal arms keep the weight down and look neat from the side.

Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

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

Styling tips

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

Size and fit

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 123mm.

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 Freya Kay

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.

At 41mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so varifocal lenses have lots 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

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Freya Kay. 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.

FAQs

Can I get varifocal lenses in the Freya Kay?

Yes. The 41mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Freya Kay for driving?

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