About this frame

Geometric eyeglasses: the l.a.Eyeworks Sampan in Red Caps, sized 53–20–137. That is about 126mm across the front, and the 53mm eye puts it among our wide frames. A 53mm lens is large, and the 20mm bridge is what holds the overall width down. An optician adjusts acetate with warmth, so the Sampan can be set to sit straight on your face. Progressive wearers should ask us for the lens height of the Sampan first, as it is not listed yet.

Frame only: prescription lenses are not included.

How the numbers work

Eye is the width of one lens, bridge is the gap between them, and temple is the length of the arm — all in millimetres. Your own frames carry the same three numbers, usually printed inside the left arm.
