Outdoor prescription eyewear should control harsh brightness without relying on a weak, unstable frame. Glare, uncertain UV coverage and poor peripheral shielding can make driving or commuting uncomfortable, while flimsy materials can lose alignment through repeated wear. Opal Sun OWIS218 Prescription Sunglasses use premium black acetate construction and a cat-eye-inspired shape for modern, dependable outdoor vision.
The deep black finish gives the frame a clean outline that coordinates with workwear, casual clothing and driving essentials. Every order includes precision-crafted 1.5 index tinted lenses, a protective case and a cleaning cloth. We prepare the complete package for direct dispatch, giving you prescription sun eyewear ready for regular use across Ireland.
Black acetate supplies the stiffness needed for repeated outdoor use. Buy New Specs combines that reliable structure with practical lens coverage and a versatile black colourway.
Acetate permits careful adjustment, while the cat-eye shape distributes weight across the bridge and temples. Correct fitting helps reduce pressure points and visual fatigue during extended wear.
The included 1.5 index tinted lenses provide practical prescription sun correction. We can configure Opal Sun OWIS218 Prescription Sunglasses for long-distance or near vision. For close-focus support, see prescription reading glasses; prescription varifocal glasses combine near, intermediate and distance zones; and a clearly divided design is available through prescription bifocal glasses.
An anti-glare coating can reduce distracting reflections, especially while driving in changeable brightness. Our anti-glare prescription glasses guidance explains this option. For screen work, prescription glasses with blue light filter may suit a separate clear-lens pair. Compatibility depends on the prescription, tint and design, so we confirm available upgrades before processing your order.
For driving, the cat-eye lens shape maintains a balanced forward field while extending useful shade towards the outer edges. The stable acetate body helps the frame stay positioned as you check mirrors, turn your head or move between the car and outdoor destinations. Its black finish also pairs cleanly with work and casual clothing.
If your routine shifts regularly between indoor and outdoor light, prescription glasses that react to light offer an alternative lens approach. When comparing construction, plastic frame prescription glasses provide a similarly solid visual presence, whereas metal frame prescription glasses generally create a slimmer outline. These references help you decide whether fixed tinted lenses and acetate suit your normal environment.
For training or high-movement activity, purpose-designed sports prescription glasses may be more suitable than treating a daily sun frame as impact-rated equipment. Compare this model with other women’s prescription glasses, or review men’s prescription glasses when ordering for another wearer or considering a different geometry. If you own a suitable frame, our service for reglazing prescription glasses can assess whether replacement prescription lenses can be fitted.
Enter or upload a current, legible prescription showing the sphere, cylinder and axis values where applicable. Include your pupillary distance and the reading addition for bifocal or varifocal lenses. Select the lens use and tint, then review the order before submitting it.
Buy New Specs provides nationwide delivery and dispatch updates when the completed eyewear is ready. Our customer support team can clarify prescription entries, lens choices or order details. The published return policy explains the applicable process and conditions, so review it before ordering and contact us before returning a personalised prescription item.

The best guide for you is to look at your current spectacles. The measurements in millimeters can usually be found on the inside of the frame, on the arm or on the nose bridge. They will look something like this: (example) - 46-20-135
If the measurements are worn away then a mm ruler can be used to measure your old glasses.
1st number - Lens width: Related to your eye size, and typically in the range of 46 (small) to 56 (large) (where the lens is)
2nd number - Bridge width: This is where you nose sits. Typically this is between 15 and 20.
3rd number - Side Length: 130 (short), 135 (medium) and 140 (long) (from lens to the end piece of your ear) We don't quote this number as a high percentage of frames are size 135
