Men's Prescription Glasses

Necessary Evil or Fashion Statement?

Spectacles? Eyeglasses? Prescription glasses? Whatever you like to call them, you've come to the right place because here at Edel-Optics we offer the most stylish eye-accessories for men available online. Whether it's Persol, Emporio Armani, Superdry, Versace or Ray-Ban glasses that you prefer, we have something for everyone and every budget.

In the TV show The Bachelor in 2014 Christian Tews was the protagonist and addressed a topic in front of an audience of millions of viewers where he received a lot of approval. Already at the age of 28, he was faced with a decision that many men will have to make at some point and came to the following conclusion: "When the hair has to come off, it has to come off.”

And the same goes for glasses. When you need them, you need them! Goethe already knew “the only way to avoid presbyopia is to die young”. Unfortunately, it is indeed unavoidable as eyesight tends to deteriorate around age 40. The countermeasures are well known: in addition to a small group of contact lens wearers, the majority of the population uses eyeglasses.

But why unfortunately? Eyewear has long since ceased to be a tiresome necessity, but has become the fashion accessory! There are many men who just wear a pair of glasses in black or Havana and significantly enhance their appearance. Among the attractive wearers of glasses are Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr. or Jérôme Boateng. Just one pair of glasses can dramatically enhance a range of different looks.

Men's Eyeglasses Materials

If you are only interested in certain materials, the filter frame material will help you to refine your search query. Here you have the choice between 14 different materials. The standard material for glasses is still plastic or acetate. This is because of the wearing comfort and the endless possibilities of shapes and colours.

There is also a large selection of metal glasses. These suit classic looks and are in most cases more robust than their plastic counterparts. Glasses made of Carbon and Wood also have this characteristic.

Most Popular Men's Styles

You can choose from a wide range of frames. To narrow down your search, use the filter functions on the left side of the page. Wondering whether you suit a square-frame or a round-frame more? Then start off your glasses search by checking out our blog post on which glasses frames suit my shape of face.

We offer full rim glasses, half rim glasses and even frameless glasses in the minimalist look. While glasses with a full rim are the classic, it doesn't mean they're boring, because there is a wide range of shapes and colours in this category. If you don't need thick lenses, rimless glasses can look subtle and elegant, making them perfect for professional activities. Half rim glasses can be divided into two subcategories: with a lower half rim they are mostly reading glasses, with which you can easily look over the upper rim of the glasses to look at distant distances. Glasses with an upper half rim, on the other hand, are more discreet than full rim glasses and are currently very fashionable.

A bestseller with half rim in the browline style is the Ray-Ban Clubmaster for men, such as the RX5154M. Another favourite men's model by Ray Ban are the rectangle full-rim glassesRX5268 in havanna. Finally, a classic frame that you simply can't go wrong with is the Wayfarer or New Wayfarer such as the RX5184.

The Aviator style frame is another favourite among men's glasses. If you like this frame shape, check out some of our most popular aviator a.k.a pilot models such as the Givenchy GV0030 or the Tom Ford FT5380.

If you are an active person and want your sports lifestyle to show through in your eyewear, opt for a sporty frame such as the Oakley Crosslink OX8076. However, if you are looking for sports glasses for men, we also have a range of suitable models. This includes photochromic lenses, wrap around frames and of course classic sports sunglasses.
