Solo 570

Solo 570 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular frames are the dependable all-rounders of eyewear. The Solo 570 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 54-17-140, in Black, Grey or Demi. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Solo collection.

3 colours to choose from

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Grey. In Grey, the frame is grey and black. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

Demi. The Demi version is tortoiseshell. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

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.

About the Solo 570 design

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Solo 570 is easy to live with.

How to wear it

Keep the rest of your look simple and let the frame do the talking. It works just as well with workwear as it does with weekend clothes.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 17mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 125mm.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Lens options for the Solo 570

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• 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 34mm lens depth is on the slim side, so single vision or bifocal lenses usually work best. Want lighter lenses? A high-index lens is thinner than standard plastic. Pair it with an anti-reflective coating for less glare when you drive after dark.

Ordering online is simple

You need a valid prescription from your optician and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Many opticians include your PD on the prescription; if yours does not, just ask for it. Choose your colour, pick your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are unsure about size, compare the measurements above with a pair you already wear.

Made for you in our UK lab

Your Solo 570 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.

Questions we often get

Is the Solo 570 suitable for varifocals?

The 34mm lens depth is fairly shallow, so single vision or bifocal lenses usually work better.

Can I use the Solo 570 as computer glasses?

Yes. Single vision lenses set to your screen distance work well for desk work.

What size is it?

It is size 54-17-140: 54mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 140mm arms, a medium fit.

What is havana or tortoiseshell?

A mottled pattern of browns and ambers, a classic eyewear finish.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
