Freya Nicola

Freya Nicola Prescription Glasses

Some frames just suit almost everyone. Rounded squares are high on that list. The Freya Nicola is a unisex full-rim metal rounded square frame, sized 53-17-135, in Black, Purple or Teal. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Which colour is you?

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

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

Teal. Teal is a blue-green teal. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

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

Shape and style

The rounded corners and straight lines balance most face shapes, especially oval, square and heart-shaped faces. Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

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

Styling tips

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

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 Nicola

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

• 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.

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

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 Freya Nicola before sending them 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 get progressive lenses in the Freya Nicola?

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

Can I wear the Freya Nicola for driving?

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

What size is it?

It is size 53-17-135: 53mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Who glazes my lenses?
