Paul Costelloe Sun 92 Prescription Sunglasses

Good sunglasses keep the glare out. Prescription ones let you see the view as well. The Paul Costelloe Sun 92 is a pair of unisex full-rim rectangular sunglasses, sized 54-16-140, in Brown Mottle, Grey or Navy. It can be made with your prescription, so you can see clearly and keep the sun out at the same time. It is part of our Paul Costelloe Collection.

Choosing your Paul Costelloe Sun 92 colour

Brown Mottle. In Brown Mottle, the frame is brown tortoiseshell. It is shown with gradient lenses. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

Grey. Grey is a soft, neutral grey. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Navy. Navy is a deep, dark blue. It is shown with grey lenses. It is a fresh alternative to black that still looks professional.

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.

The details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition.

Keep the Paul Costelloe Sun 92 in the car, take it to the beach or wear it on your lunch break; it is made for bright Australian days.

How to wear it

Easy to wear with almost anything, from beachwear to a smart jacket.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 124mm.

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.

Prescription lenses for the Paul Costelloe Sun 92

The Paul Costelloe Sun 92 can be made with any of these lens types:

• 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 34mm lens depth is on the slim side, so single vision or bifocal lenses usually work best. Stronger prescription? A high-index lens keeps things thin and light. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is worth adding too, especially if you drive at night.

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.

How your glasses are made

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Paul Costelloe Sun 92 and then sends your glasses 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.
