Meridian Eyewear Capri

Meridian Eyewear Capri Prescription Glasses

A cat-eye is one of the most flattering shapes you can wear. The Meridian Eyewear Capri is a unisex full-rim cat-eye frame, sized 54-18-140, in Black / Lime, Blue or Purple. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Meridian Eyewear Collection.

Choosing your Meridian Eyewear Capri colour

Black / Lime. Black / Lime pairs black with lime. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

Blue. Blue is a clear, easy-to-wear blue. It is a fresh alternative to black that still looks professional.

Purple. Purple is a rich purple. It brings a little personality without overpowering your features.

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

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.

A patterned front adds personality while still being easy to wear.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Meridian Eyewear Capri is easy to live with.

Styling tips

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 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 18mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 126mm.

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 Meridian Eyewear Capri

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

• 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.

The 35mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many progressive lenses. 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.

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 Meridian Eyewear Capri before sending them to you in Australia.

Keep them looking new

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 Meridian Eyewear Capri?

Yes. The 35mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the Meridian Eyewear Capri 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 54-18-140: 54mm lens width, 18mm bridge and 140mm arms, a medium fit.

Who glazes my lenses?
