Freya Trixie

Freya Trixie Prescription Glasses

Cat-eye frames manage to look glamorous and practical at the same time. The Freya Trixie is a unisex full-rim cat-eye frame, sized 52-17-135, in Black, Green or Pink. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Freya by Dunelm Collection.

3 colours to choose from

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

Green. Green is an earthy green. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

Pink. Pink is a soft pink. It is soft and pretty, and it suits fair and cool skin tones.

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.

Why you will like it

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. Decorative arms give the frame a finished, designer feel when you see it side on.

The tortoiseshell arms pair nicely with the front and give the frame a relaxed feel. A patterned front adds personality while still being easy to wear.

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

Styling tips

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

Frame size and fit

The 52mm 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 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 Trixie

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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 38mm lens depth gives progressive lenses plenty 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.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optometrist and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optometrist for it. Pick your colour, choose your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are not sure about sizing, compare the measurements above with a pair you already own. It only takes a minute and saves any guesswork.

From our lab to you

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Freya Trixie and then sends your glasses 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 Trixie?

Yes. The 38mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the Freya Trixie 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 52-17-135: 52mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Where are my lenses made?
