Ol001

Ol001 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular glasses add a little structure to the face without any fuss. The Ol001 is a men’s full-rim plastic rectangular frame in Black or Brown. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Own Label collection.

Black or Brown: which one is you?

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

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

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

Shape and style

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The plastic frame is light on the nose and comfortable for all-day wear.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the Ol001 an easy pick for everyday wear. For a frame you will reach for daily, the Ol001 is a solid choice.

How to wear it

Short hair and a clean shave make the frame shape stand out; with longer hair or a beard it reads as more relaxed.

Size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium.

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 Ol001

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.

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.

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.

Made for you in our UK lab

Your Ol001 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.

Keep them looking new

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.

Who it is for

This frame is a good fit for anyone who wants reliable everyday glasses without fuss. It works for long days at a desk, the school run, driving and catching up with friends, and it pairs with most wardrobes. If you are replacing an old pair, compare the measurements above with the glasses you wear now.

Questions we often get

Is the Ol001 comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

Where are my lenses made?

In our UK optical lab. They are cut to your prescription, fitted into your frame and checked before they are sent out.
