Planet+19

Planet+19 Prescription Glasses

Square frames add definition without trying too hard. The Planet+19 is a unisex full-rim plastic square frame in Navy/Tort or Grey Crystal/Lt Blue. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Planet+ range.

Choosing your Planet+19 colour

Navy/Tort. In Navy/Tort, the frame is navy and tortoiseshell. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

Grey Crystal/Lt Blue. The Grey Crystal/Lt Blue version is grey crystal and light blue. It blends in rather than stands out, which many people find easy to wear every day.

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.

Why you will like it

Square lenses add structure to round and oval faces and make features look more defined. The crystal finish is clear and fresh, and it lets your features take centre stage.

Take a look at the arms: the detailing there is what makes this frame special. The tortoiseshell arms pair nicely with the front and give the frame a relaxed feel. The plastic frame is light on the nose and comfortable for all-day wear.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Planet+19 is a strong choice.

Styling tips

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 50mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller 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+19

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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.

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

Your Planet+19 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

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.
