Solo 568

Solo 568 Prescription Glasses

A softly squared frame is one of the most versatile shapes around. The Solo 568 is a unisex full-rim soft square frame, sized 50-17-130, in Black, Brown or Burgundy. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Solo range.

Choosing your Solo 568 colour

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

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

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.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Solo 568 is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

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

How it fits

With 50mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 130mm arms are a little shorter than standard. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 117mm.

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 Solo 568

Your optician’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• Single vision: the same prescription from edge to edge.
• Bifocal: distance at the top and a reading segment at the bottom.
• Varifocal: a smooth change from distance to reading, with no line.
• Ready readers: a fixed magnification for books, phones and screens.

The 36mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. 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.

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

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Solo 568. 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 Solo 568?

Yes. The 36mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Solo 568 for driving?

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

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 50mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Where are my lenses made?
