Zenith 89

Zenith 89 Prescription Glasses

Soft corners take the edge off a square shape and make it easy to wear every day. The Zenith 89 is a women’s full-rim soft square frame, sized 51-17-135, in Blue, Claret or Rose. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Zenith range.

Which colour is you?

Blue. In Blue, the frame is navy. It is a fresh alternative to black that still looks professional.

Claret. Claret is a deep red wine shade. It adds warmth without being too bright, and it suits most skin tones.

Rose. Rose is a soft dusty pink. It brightens the face and has a fresh, youthful feel.

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

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. The arms carry a decorative pattern that adds a bit of jewellery to the frame.

The patterned finish means no two angles look quite the same.

The Zenith 89 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend. The Zenith 89 also makes a handy spare pair for the car or the office.

How to wear it

For work, pair it with a crisp shirt or blazer. At the weekend it looks just as good with a T-shirt and jeans.

Size and fit

The 51mm lenses make this a medium frame that suits most faces. The 17mm bridge is average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 119mm.

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 89

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• 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.

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

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 Zenith 89 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.

Your questions, answered

What size is it?

It is size 51-17-135: 51mm lens width, 17mm bridge and 135mm arms, a medium fit.

Is the Zenith 89 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.

Where are my lenses made?

In our UK optical lab. They are cut to your prescription, fitted into your frame and then sent to you in Australia.
