Semi-Rimless Glasses

Stand out with semi-rimless glasses and change your look with affordable, sleek, half-frame prescription glasses. At 1stchoiceoptical Australia, we offer you the chance to be different with trendy everyday eyewear for less than the whole family can enjoy. Or, you can opt for luxury designer semi-rimless glasses that will add a touch of fabulousness to your everyday style.

Semi-rimless, or half-frame, glasses do not have a full-frame around the lenses, such as full-rim glasses. Instead, semi-rimless glasses have only the top part of the frame above the lenses. If you like this style, you're in luck because full-rim glasses aren't the only frame style on the market that can add a stylish touch to your look.

Are semi-rimless glasses in style?

Here are some of the reasons why semi-rimless glasses are popular:

1. Affordability

2. Enhanced look for a sleek and smart appearance

3. Lightweight

4. Nearly invisible

5. A great middle ground between full-rim and rimless glasses

In addition, semi-rimless glasses are compatible with diverse prescription lenses and can accommodate certain lens materials and thicknesses. You can also enjoy a mix of different frame materials for a more retro look.

If you want to be more subtle, thin metal semi-rimless frames are perfect. Explore a range of 1stchoiceoptical Australia Collection semi-rimless frames that don't overpower your face and sit lightly on your nose. Or, if you love luxurious brands, you can browse through elegant half-frame glasses.

For a minimalistic yet chic look, you'll find semi-rimless ladies' glasses in all frame designs, such as square frames. We also have practical and fashionable semi-rimless glasses for men and kids with classic pilot frames and oval glasses.

Half-frame glasses are simple and comfortable to wear, so why not try them on virtually to see if they could be your next pair?

How should semi-rimless glasses fit?

Thanks to the minimalistic look and the variety of colours and styles, semi-rimless glasses work well for both casual and formal attire. So, once you've picked your favourite style, it's time to make sure your half-frame glasses sit comfortably on your face.

First, work out what frame size best suits you by checking your current glasses or following our guide. Suppose you are unsure or often have difficulty making your glasses comfortable. In that case, you may want to find a pair of semi-rimless glasses online with adjustable nose pads that allow your glasses to sit higher or lower on your face.

Remember, even for half-frames, the glasses shouldn't be too tight or loose. If you require a prescription, calculate your pupillary distance for clear and correct vision. There's only one way to find out if semi-rimless glasses look great! Purchase a pair with us online, and if you're not sure, you'll have 30 days to return them and find what you love.
