Planet 63

Planet 63 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular glasses add a little structure to the face without any fuss. The Planet 63 is a unisex full-rim plastic rectangular frame in Shiny Black, Matt Black or Blue/Black. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Planet range.

Which colour is you?

Shiny Black. Shiny Black keeps things simple. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

Matt Black. Matt Black is a soft, non-shiny black. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

Blue/Black. Blue/Black pairs blue with black. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

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.

The details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Planet 63 is easy to live with. The Planet 63 also makes a handy spare pair for the car or the office.

How to wear it

Because it is unisex, it is easy to share the look across the household. Pick the colour that matches your wardrobe rather than worrying about who it is designed for.

Frame size and fit

With 55mm lenses, this is a larger frame that suits wider faces.

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 Planet 63

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.

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 Planet 63 and checked by our technicians before they are sent 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.

Questions we often get

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 55mm lenses it suits wider faces.

Can I use the Planet 63 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 unisex?

Yes. It suits men and women.

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.
