Ascari Eyewear 041

Ascari Eyewear 041 Prescription Glasses

Rectangular frames are the dependable all-rounders of eyewear. The Ascari Eyewear 041 is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 55-17-140, in Brown Mottle, Grey or Navy. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Ascari Eyewear Collection.

Choosing your Ascari Eyewear 041 colour

Brown Mottle. In Brown Mottle, the frame is mottled brown. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Grey. Grey is a soft, neutral grey. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

Navy. Navy is a deep, dark blue. It looks great with blue or grey eyes and pairs easily with denim and white.

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

Shape and style

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The mottled pattern has more depth than a flat colour, so the frame looks rich up close.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Ascari Eyewear 041 is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

Size and fit

At 55mm per lens, it is a generous size, a good pick if standard frames feel tight. The 17mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 127mm.

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 Ascari Eyewear 041

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.

The 38mm lens depth gives progressive lenses plenty of room. Stronger prescription? A high-index lens keeps things thin and light. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is worth adding too, especially if you drive at night. Spend a lot of time on screens? This frame is also part of our blue light glasses range.

Before you order

Check that your prescription is current; an eye test every couple of years is a good habit, and your optometrist will tell you how often you need one. You will also need your PD, which tells the lab where to centre the lenses so you look through the right spot. With those two things in hand, ordering takes just a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

How your glasses are made

Once you have picked your colour and lens type and entered your prescription and PD, our UK optical lab makes your lenses, fits them into your Ascari Eyewear 041 and sends the finished pair to you in Australia.

Keep them looking new

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.

Your questions, answered

Can I get progressive lenses in the Ascari Eyewear 041?

Yes. The 38mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Ascari Eyewear 041 for driving?

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

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 55mm lenses it suits wider faces.

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.
