Eleven Banana

Eleven Banana Prescription Glasses

A softly squared frame is one of the most versatile shapes around. The Eleven Banana is a women’s full-rim plastic soft square frame in Grey, Purple or Red. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Top Banana range.

3 colours to choose from

Grey. In Grey, the frame is translucent grey. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

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

Red. In Red, the frame is translucent red. It looks great with neutral outfits and a bold lip.

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.

Design details

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. The translucent finish lets light through, so the frame looks lighter and softer than a solid colour.

Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

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

Wearing it every day

Match the frame colour to something you wear often, such as a favourite scarf or bag, for a pulled-together look. Neutral make-up keeps the focus on your eyes.

How it fits

At 52mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit.

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 Eleven Banana

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.

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.

How your glasses are made

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 Eleven Banana and sends the finished pair to you in Australia.

Keep them looking new

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 wear the Eleven Banana for driving?

Yes. Single vision or progressive lenses work well for driving, and an anti-reflective coating helps cut glare from headlights at night.

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.
