Ascari Eyewear 026

Ascari Eyewear 026 Prescription Glasses

A cat-eye is one of the most flattering shapes you can wear. The Ascari Eyewear 026 is a unisex full-rim cat-eye frame, sized 53-15-135, in Brown, Burgundy or Turquoise. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Ascari Eyewear Collection.

Choosing your Ascari Eyewear 026 colour

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

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It adds warmth without being too bright, and it suits most skin tones.

Turquoise. The Turquoise version is turquoise and patterned green. It feels fresh and a little bit different, which is exactly why people notice it.

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

The details

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. A patterned front adds personality while still being easy to wear.

The Ascari Eyewear 026 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Wearing it every day

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.

Frame size and fit

At 53mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 15mm bridge is narrow, so it sits securely on a slimmer nose. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 121mm.

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 026

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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 37mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many progressive lenses. 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.

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

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 Ascari Eyewear 026 before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Wipe your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than the hem of your shirt, keep them in a case when they are in your bag, and never leave them on the dashboard on a hot day. Our lens care guide has a few more habits worth picking up.

Questions we often get

Can I get progressive lenses in the Ascari Eyewear 026?

Yes. The 37mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the Ascari Eyewear 026 as computer glasses?

Yes. Single vision lenses set to your screen distance, or progressive lenses if you also need distance vision, both work well for desk work.

What size is it?

It is size 53-15-135: 53mm lens width, 15mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 15mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
