L.K.Bennett 87

L.K.Bennett 87 Prescription Glasses

Flat edges and angles turn a simple frame into a talking point. The L.K.Bennett 87 is a women’s full-rim metal geometric frame, sized 53-17-140, in Gold, Rose Gold or Silver. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our LK Bennett range.

Which colour is you?

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It gives a polished, classic finish that never looks loud.

Rose Gold. Rose Gold is a soft pink-gold. It is a warm, elegant choice that pairs nicely with earthy colours.

Silver. Silver is a clean, bright silver. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

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

Design details

The angular shape suits round and oval faces, where it adds definition and interest. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the L.K.Bennett 87 is a strong choice. For a frame you will reach for daily, the L.K.Bennett 87 is a solid choice.

How to wear it

Pair it with simple gold or silver earrings and let the frame do the rest. If you wear your hair up, a frame like this can act as your main accessory.

Size and fit

The 53mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 123mm.

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 L.K.Bennett 87

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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.

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

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 L.K.Bennett 87 and sends the finished pair to you in Australia.

Keep them looking new

Clean the lenses with lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before you put them down, and keep them in a hard case when they are not on your face. Our guide to caring for your lenses covers the rest.
