Tommy 28

Tommy 28 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular glasses add a little structure to the face without any fuss. The Tommy 28 is a men’s full-rim metal rectangular frame in Gunmetal, Gold or Bronze. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Capello collection.

Choosing your Tommy 28 colour

Gunmetal. Gunmetal is a dark, smoky grey metal. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It brings warmth to the face and looks lovely with gold jewellery or a watch.

Bronze. Bronze is a warm, brownish metallic finish. It gives a polished, classic finish that never looks loud.

Each colour is shown in the gallery, so you can compare them side by side before you decide.

About the Tommy 28 design

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The frame runs along the top of the lenses only, so the lower edge is open and your view stays clear.

The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Tommy 28 is a strong 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

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 Tommy 28

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.

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 Tommy 28 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.

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.

Questions we often get

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 55mm lenses it suits wider faces.

Is the Tommy 28 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.

What does semi-rimless mean?

The frame runs along the top of the lenses only. The lower edge is held by a fine line, so the bottom of the lens is open.

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.
