Freya Kay

Freya Kay Prescription Glasses

If you like structure but not sharp angles, a soft square is the sweet spot. The Freya Kay is a unisex full-rim metal soft square frame, sized 53-17-135, in Burgundy or Grey. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Burgundy or Grey: which one is you?

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It is a grown-up way to wear colour.

Grey. In Grey, the frame is grey tortoiseshell. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

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

About the Freya Kay design

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. Slim metal arms keep the frame light and add a polished touch.

The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

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

Wearing it every day

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

Frame size and fit

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.

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 Freya Kay

Your optometrist’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• Single vision: one prescription for distance, reading or the computer.
• Progressive: near, middle and far in one lens with no line. (In the UK they call them varifocals.)
• Bifocal: a defined reading area at the bottom of the lens.
• Ready readers: simple magnification for close work.

At 41mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so progressive lenses have lots of room. If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

Before you order

Check that your prescription is current; an eye test every couple of years is a good habit, and your optometrist will tell you how often you need one. You will also need your PD, which tells the lab where to centre the lenses so you look through the right spot. With those two things in hand, ordering takes just a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

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 Kay and then sends your glasses 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 Freya Kay?

Yes. The 41mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the Freya Kay 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 53-17-135: 53mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

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.
