Visage Metal 406

Visage Metal 406 Prescription Glasses

If you want glasses that look smart and get out of the way, a rectangle is hard to beat. The Visage Metal 406 is a unisex full-rim metal rectangular frame, sized 57-22-145, in Dark Gunmetal, Gold or Light Gunmetal. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Visage collection.

3 colours to choose from

Dark Gunmetal. In Dark Gunmetal, the frame is light gunmetal. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It suits warm and olive skin tones beautifully.

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

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

Design details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Visage Metal 406 is a strong choice.

Styling tips

Because it is unisex, it is easy to share the look across the household. Pick the colour that matches your wardrobe rather than worrying about who it is designed for.

Size and fit

At 57mm per lens, it is a generous size, a good pick if standard frames feel tight. The 22mm bridge is wider than average, which suits a broader nose bridge. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 136mm.

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 Visage Metal 406

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

• 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.

The 36mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many progressive lenses. 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. Spend a lot of time on screens? This frame is also part of our blue light glasses range.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optometrist and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optometrist for it. Pick your colour, choose your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are not sure about sizing, compare the measurements above with a pair you already own. It only takes a minute and saves any guesswork.

How your glasses are made

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Visage Metal 406 and then sends your glasses to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Wipe your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than the hem of your shirt, keep them in a case when they are in your bag, and never leave them on the dashboard on a hot day. Our lens care guide has a few more habits worth picking up.
