Freya Evelyn

Freya Evelyn Prescription Glasses

A softly squared frame is one of the most versatile shapes around. The Freya Evelyn is a unisex full-rim metal soft square frame, sized 54-16-140, in Aqua, Burgundy or Cream. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Choosing your Freya Evelyn colour

Aqua. Aqua is a fresh blue-green. It reads as smart and dark from a distance, with a little more personality up close.

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It adds warmth without being too bright, and it suits most skin tones.

Cream. Cream is a soft cream. Because light passes through it, the frame looks lighter on the face and lets your features do the talking.

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

About the Freya Evelyn design

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. Take a look at the arms: the detailing there is what makes this frame special.

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

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

Styling tips

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.

How it fits

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 124mm.

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 Freya Evelyn

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 40mm lens depth gives progressive lenses plenty of room. 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 Freya Evelyn before sending them to you in Australia.

Looking after them

Rinse off dust before wiping, dry the lenses with a clean microfibre cloth, and take your glasses off with both hands so the arms stay straight. For more tips, see our lens care guide.

Your questions, answered

Can I get progressive lenses in the Freya Evelyn?

Yes. The 40mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Freya Evelyn for driving?

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

What size is it?

It is size 54-16-140: 54mm lens width, 16mm bridge and 140mm arms, a medium fit.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

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

Who glazes my lenses?
