X-Eyes Lite 01

X-Eyes Lite 01 Prescription Glasses

An aviator brings a touch of adventure to everyday glasses. The X-Eyes Lite 01 is a men’s full-rim metal aviator frame, sized 56-16-145, in Black, Gold or Light Gunmetal. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our X-Eyes Lite range.

Which colour is you?

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.

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It gives a polished, classic finish that never looks loud.

Light Gunmetal. Light Gunmetal is a pale, silvery grey metal. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

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 aviator shape suits oval, square and heart-shaped faces. The double bridge is a nod to classic aviator style and makes the front feel sturdy.

Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the X-Eyes Lite 01 an easy pick for everyday wear. Thinking of a second pair? The X-Eyes Lite 01 works well as a backup.

Wearing it every day

It looks sharp with a collared shirt and works just as well with a T-shirt. If you have a beard, a slightly bolder frame balances the face nicely.

Frame size and fit

With 56mm lenses, this is a larger frame that suits wider faces. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 128mm.

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 X-Eyes Lite 01

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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.

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.

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 X-Eyes Lite 01. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

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.

Your questions, answered

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 56mm lenses it suits wider faces.

Is the X-Eyes Lite 01 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.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 16mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

What is a double bridge?

A second bar across the top of the frame, above the nose. It is a classic aviator detail.

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.
