Chantelle 991

Chantelle 991 Prescription Glasses

A rounded square gives you the softness of a round frame with a little more structure. The Chantelle 991 is a unisex full-rim metal rounded square frame, sized 52-16-135, in Green or Purple. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription.

Choosing your Chantelle 991 colour

Green. Green is an earthy green. It pairs well with neutrals, denim and earthy colours.

Purple. Purple is a rich purple. It adds a confident touch of colour and suits fair and cool skin tones.

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

Why you will like it

The rounded corners and straight lines balance most face shapes, especially oval, square and heart-shaped faces. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

The Chantelle 991 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

How to wear it

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

Size and fit

At 52mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 120mm.

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 Chantelle 991

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• 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 35mm 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.

What you need to order

Have your prescription handy before you start. It will list the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and often your PD as well. If your PD is missing, your optometrist can give it to you. Then simply choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as a thinner lens or a coating. You can review everything in your cart before you pay.
