Ascari Eyewear 054

Ascari Eyewear 054 Prescription Glasses

Mixing a bold top line with a fine lower rim is a classic look that still feels fresh. The Ascari Eyewear 054 is a unisex full-rim metal browline frame, sized 58-16-145, in Brown. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Ascari Eyewear Collection.

About the Ascari Eyewear 054 colour

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Design details

The stronger top line suits round, oval and heart-shaped faces, and it can make you look more awake. 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 Ascari Eyewear 054 is a strong choice.

Styling tips

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

Frame size and fit

At 58mm per lens, it is a generous size, a good pick if standard frames feel tight. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 132mm.

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 054

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

• Progressive lenses for clear vision at every distance without swapping pairs.
• Single vision for one job done well: driving, reading or desk work.
• Bifocal if you like a clearly marked reading section.
• Ready readers when you only need help close up.

The 39mm 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.

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 Ascari Eyewear 054 and then sends your glasses 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.
