Switching between everyday glasses and separate prescription sunglasses is awkward when driving, commuting or moving between indoor and outdoor settings. Sunoptic TRC-189 Prescription Glasses provide a premium 2-in-1 solution with a full-plastic frame, structural Wayfarer-inspired sides and functional cat-eye lens geometry. A precisely matched magnetic polarised clip-on converts them into sun-ready eyewear in seconds, without requiring another prescription pair.
Each order includes precision-crafted 1.5 index lenses, a protective case and a cleaning cloth. We prepare the frame to your prescription and dispatch it directly to you. The clip-on follows the front profile closely, preserving the cat-eye shape and coverage while keeping attachment and removal straightforward.
The frame is engineered for daily handling. Its full-plastic construction supports the lenses and sides, while the magnetic interface keeps the polarised sun lens correctly aligned. Black provides a clean finish, while Tortoise introduces a warmer patterned colour without changing the structure or function.
The geometry balances the optical lenses, plastic front and clip-on across the bridge and temple contact areas. An optical professional can adjust the solid sides where required, helping the frame follow your facial profile while remaining stable throughout active daily routines.
Sunoptic TRC-189 Prescription Glasses can meet different visual requirements while retaining the magnetic sun conversion. Choose prescription reading glasses for close work or long-distance lenses for driving, television and distance clarity. For multiple viewing ranges, prescription varifocal glasses provide a progressive transition between distance, intermediate and near vision, while prescription bifocal glasses divide distance and reading zones within one lens.
We can apply an anti-reflective coating when you select anti-glare prescription glasses, helping manage reflections during driving or prolonged indoor use. Another option is prescription glasses with blue light filter, which may suit extended periods using monitors and laptops. Your prescription stays in the main frame, allowing the polarised clip-on to manage sunlight and reflected outdoor glare.
The magnetic system is useful when conditions change throughout the day. Wear the clear prescription lenses under artificial light at home, in the office or in shops, attach the polarised layer before entering bright daylight, and remove it when returning indoors. This direct conversion suits driving and commuting because there is no second prescription frame to carry.
You can also consider prescription glasses that react to light, which change tint under suitable conditions. The TRC-189 instead gives you immediate manual control through a removable polarised layer. Our plastic frame prescription glasses offer unified construction, while metal frame prescription glasses provide a different material profile and adjustment method.
Buy New Specs also supplies sports prescription glasses for activity-specific stability, alongside men’s prescription glasses and women’s prescription glasses for different fitting preferences. If you already own a suitable frame, our reglazing prescription glasses service can replace its optical lenses. Each route addresses different needs across work, driving, exercise and changing light.
Select Black or Tortoise, then choose your lens type and optional treatments. You need a current prescription showing sphere, cylinder and axis values where applicable, plus your pupillary distance. Varifocal or specialised orders may require further fitting information, which our team can explain before production.
Buy New Specs reviews your details, prepares the 1.5 index lenses and arranges nationwide dispatch with the case and cloth. Contact our customer support team if any prescription entry is unclear. Review the online return policy for applicable conditions, exclusions and procedures before ordering.
We are committed to reliable components and long-lasting optical performance crafted for real-world demands. Choosing the precise engineering of this multifunctional model means investing in a comprehensive, all-day piece of visual equipment for vision correction, changing light and outdoor glare.

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
