Freya Sun 001

Freya Sun 001 Prescription Sunglasses

Good sunglasses keep the glare out. Prescription ones let you see the view as well. The Freya Sun 001 is a pair of unisex full-rim cat-eye sunglasses, sized 52-16-135, in Brown or Teal. It can be made with your prescription, so you can see clearly and keep the sun out at the same time. It belongs to the Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Brown or Teal: which one is you?

Brown. Brown is a warm, earthy brown. It is shown with gradient lenses. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

Teal. Teal is a blue-green teal. It is shown with grey lenses. It pairs well with neutrals, denim and earthy colours.

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 Freya Sun 001 design

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift.

Keep the Freya Sun 001 in the car, take it to the beach or wear it on your lunch break; it is made for bright Australian days.

Wearing it every day

Easy to wear with almost anything, from beachwear to a smart jacket.

How it fits

The 52mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 120mm.

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.

Prescription lenses for the Freya Sun 001

The Freya Sun 001 can be made with any of these lens types:

• 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.

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.

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 Sun 001 before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

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.
