Freya Sun 002

Freya Sun 002 Prescription Sunglasses

If you want a frame with a bit of attitude, start with a cat-eye. The Freya Sun 002 is a pair of unisex full-rim metal cat-eye sunglasses, sized 53-17-135, in Black, Purple 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.

Choosing your Freya Sun 002 colour

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is shown with grey lenses. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Purple. Purple is a rich purple. It is softer than it sounds and looks lovely with grey or silver hair.

Teal. Teal is a blue-green teal. It is shown with grey lenses. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

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

The details

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

The Freya Sun 002 is an easy everyday pair of prescription sunglasses for driving, walking and weekends outdoors.

How to wear it

Keep a pair in the car and another in your bag and you will never squint at the glare again.

How it fits

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 123mm.

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 002

The Freya Sun 002 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 37mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many progressive lenses. 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.

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.

Made for you in our UK lab

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Freya Sun 002 and then sends your glasses to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

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.
