Ascari Eyewear 064 Wood Effect Sides

Ascari Eyewear 064 Wood Effect Sides Prescription Glasses

Rectangular frames are the dependable all-rounders of eyewear. The Ascari Eyewear 064 Wood Effect Sides is a unisex full-rim rectangular frame, sized 54-18-145, in Black, Brown Mottle or Navy Gradual. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Ascari Eyewear Collection.

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.

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

Navy Gradual. The Navy Gradual version is navy that fades to blue. It looks great with blue or grey eyes and pairs easily with denim and white.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

About the Ascari Eyewear 064 Wood Effect Sides design

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The colour fades from darker at the top to lighter at the bottom, which gives the frame depth and keeps it from looking heavy.

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 064 Wood Effect Sides is easy to live with.

How to wear it

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.

Size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 18mm bridge is average. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 126mm.

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 Ascari Eyewear 064 Wood Effect Sides

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

• Single vision: one prescription for distance, reading or the computer.
• Progressive: near, middle and far in one lens with no line. (In the UK they call them varifocals.)
• Bifocal: a defined reading area at the bottom of the lens.
• Ready readers: simple magnification for close work.

The 38mm lens depth gives progressive lenses plenty of room. Prefer to keep things slim? Choose a high-index lens, which is thinner and lighter than standard. Then add an anti-reflective coating to cut glare from headlights and screens. Spend a lot of time on screens? This frame is also part of our blue light glasses range.

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.

Made for you in our UK lab

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 064 Wood Effect Sides 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.
