Freya Sadie

Freya Sadie Prescription Glasses

Upswept corners have a way of lifting the whole face. The Freya Sadie is a unisex full-rim cat-eye frame, sized 53-15-135, in Amber Mottle, Brown Mottle or Grey Mottle. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Freya by Dunelm Collection.

Choosing your Freya Sadie colour

Amber Mottle. Amber Mottle is easy to wear. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Brown Mottle. Brown Mottle is a mottled brown. It is softer than black and suits brown, auburn and red hair.

Grey Mottle. Grey Mottle is a good everyday shade. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

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

About the Freya Sadie design

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. Slim metal arms keep the frame light and add a polished touch.

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

How to wear it

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

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. 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.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the Freya Sadie

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.

At 42mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so progressive lenses have lots of room. 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.

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

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 Sadie before sending them to you in Australia.

Looking after them

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 Sadie?

Yes. The 42mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the Freya Sadie 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 53-15-135: 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.
