X-Eyes Lite 29

X-Eyes Lite 29 Prescription Glasses

A clean rectangular frame works at the office, at home and everywhere in between. The X-Eyes Lite 29 is a women’s full-rim rectangular frame, sized 50-15-140, in Black & Tort, Pink & Purple or Teal. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the X-Eyes Lite range.

3 colours to choose from

Black & Tort. The Black & Tort version is black that fades to tortoiseshell. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

Pink & Purple. The Pink & Purple version is pink that fades to purple. It works beautifully with navy, grey and silver jewellery.

Teal. Teal is a blue-green teal. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

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.

Design details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. The colour fades from darker at the top to lighter at the bottom, which gives the frame depth and keeps it from looking heavy.

The X-Eyes Lite 29 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend. The X-Eyes Lite 29 also makes a handy spare pair for the car or the office. Thinking of a second pair? The X-Eyes Lite 29 works well as a backup.

Wearing it every day

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.

How it fits

With 50mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 15mm bridge is narrow, so it sits securely on a slimmer nose. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 115mm.

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 X-Eyes Lite 29

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• 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.

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

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 X-Eyes Lite 29 before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

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.
