Turinelli

Turinelli Prescription Glasses

Soft corners take the edge off a square shape and make it easy to wear every day. The Turinelli is a women’s full-rim plastic soft square frame in Tort/Blue, Tort/Red or Green-mottle/Purple. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Infusion range.

3 colours to choose from

Tort/Blue. In Tort/Blue, the frame is tortoiseshell and blue. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

Tort/Red. In Tort/Red, the frame is tortoiseshell and red. It is softer than black and suits brown, auburn and red hair.

Green-mottle/Purple. Green-mottle/Purple keeps things simple. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

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

Shape and style

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. The patterned finish means no two angles look quite the same.

The plastic frame is light on the nose and comfortable for all-day wear.

The Turinelli is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Styling tips

For work, pair it with a crisp shirt or blazer. At the weekend it looks just as good with a T-shirt and jeans.

How it fits

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces.

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 Turinelli

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

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Progressive: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

What you need to order

Have your prescription handy before you start. It will list the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and often your PD as well. If your PD is missing, your optometrist can give it to you. Then simply choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as a thinner lens or a coating. You can review everything in your cart before you pay.

From our lab to you

Choose your colour and lenses, enter your prescription and PD, and our optical lab in the UK makes your lenses and fits them into your Turinelli before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Clean the lenses with lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before you put them down, and keep them in a hard case when they are not on your face. Our guide to caring for your lenses covers the rest.

FAQs

What is havana or tortoiseshell?

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

Can I wear the Turinelli for driving?

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

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.
