Six Banana

Six Banana Prescription Glasses

Soft corners take the edge off a square shape and make it easy to wear every day. The Six Banana is a women’s full-rim plastic soft square frame in Blue, Cerise or Wine. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Top Banana collection.

Choosing your Six Banana colour

Blue. In Blue, the frame is navy. It brings a cool, calm touch of colour that suits most skin tones.

Cerise. Cerise is a bright pinkish red. It is a versatile choice that works for most people.

Wine. Wine is a deep wine red. It looks great with neutral outfits and a bold lip.

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

Why you will like it

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

The Six Banana is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

Styling tips

Match the frame colour to something you wear often, such as a favourite scarf or bag, for a pulled-together look. Neutral make-up keeps the focus on your eyes.

Size and fit

At 52mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit.

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 Six Banana

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Progressive: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

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.

Before you order

Check that your prescription is current; an eye test every couple of years is a good habit, and your optometrist will tell you how often you need one. You will also need your PD, which tells the lab where to centre the lenses so you look through the right spot. With those two things in hand, ordering takes just a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

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 Six Banana 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.

Everyday wear

Good everyday glasses should be comfortable from breakfast to bedtime. Light materials, a secure fit and a classic look all help, and this frame ticks those boxes. Add the right lenses and it will handle screens, reading and driving with ease.

Your questions, answered

Can I use the Six Banana 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.

Where are my lenses made?
