Joia 2583

Joia 2583 Prescription Glasses

If you want a frame with a bit of attitude, start with a cat-eye. The Joia 2583 is a women’s full-rim plastic cat-eye frame, sized 49-16-135, in Blue or Brown. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Joia collection.

Choosing your Joia 2583 colour

Blue. In Blue, the frame is striped translucent blue. It reads as smart and dark from a distance, with a little more personality up close.

Brown. In Brown, the frame is translucent rose-brown. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

Still torn? Think about what you wear on an ordinary weekday, not on a night out. That is the colour you will be happiest with.

About the Joia 2583 design

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. Because the colour is see-through, the frame has a light, glowing look.

Slim metal arms keep the frame light and add a polished touch. The striped finish adds texture that changes as the light catches it. The plastic frame is light on the nose and comfortable for all-day wear.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Joia 2583 is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

For work, pair it with a crisp shirt or blazer. At the weekend it looks just as good with a T-shirt and jeans.

Frame size and fit

With 49mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 114mm.

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 Joia 2583

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 40mm 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.

From our lab to you

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 Joia 2583 and sends the finished pair 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.

Questions we often get

Can I get progressive lenses in the Joia 2583?

Yes. The 40mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Joia 2583 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 small frame?

Yes. With 49mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 16mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

Do you make the lenses yourselves?

Yes. Every pair is made to order in our UK optical lab, where your lenses are cut to your prescription and fitted into your frame.
