Zenith 84

Zenith 84 Prescription Glasses

Round glasses have a quiet, clever charm that never really goes out of style. The Zenith 84 is a unisex full-rim round frame, sized 48-19-135, in Black, Brown Tort or Crystal. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Zenith collection.

Which colour is you?

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Brown Tort. In Brown Tort, the frame is brown tortoiseshell. It warms up the face and sits nicely alongside camel, olive and cream.

Crystal. In Crystal, the frame is crystal grey. It blends in rather than stands out, which many people find easy to wear every day.

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

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. A crystal front looks modern and light, and it goes with everything.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Zenith 84 is easy to live with. For a frame you will reach for daily, the Zenith 84 is a solid choice.

Wearing it every day

It works with workwear and weekend clothes alike, which is exactly what you want from an everyday frame.

Size and fit

With 48mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 19mm bridge is a little wider than average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 115mm.

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.

Lens options for the Zenith 84

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

• 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.

If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

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.

From our lab to you

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 Zenith 84 and sends the finished pair to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Rinse off dust before wiping, dry the lenses with a clean microfibre cloth, and take your glasses off with both hands so the arms stay straight. For more tips, see our lens care guide.

Questions we often get

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 48mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Is the Zenith 84 comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

Is it unisex?

Yes. It suits men and women.

What does crystal mean?

A clear, see-through finish.

Do you make the lenses yourselves?

Yes. Every pair is made to order in our UK optical lab, where your lenses are cut to your prescription and fitted into your frame.
