Aviator Eyeglasses

The best part about aviators (aside from their cool factor) is that they fit just about any face. Square, round, heart, and pear shapes can all pull off aviator sunglasses with ease. They’re extremely popular, but rest assured, we offer enough options for you to be able to put your own unique spin on this enduring style.

As the name suggests, aviator glasses frames were designed for pilots—way back in the thirties. Since then, aviator glasses have gone on to become a timeless symbol of swagger and attitude. While they do come in a range of materials, most feature metal rims and the aviator’s signature double nose bridge. The lenses are traditionally big, dark, and reflective, which swiftly bring out the bold in anyone wearing them.

How to Read an Eyeglass Prescription

SPH (Sphere)

Spherical error, or overall power of lens is the basic part of your prescription. A (+) means you have trouble seeing near, and a (-) means you have trouble seeing things faraway.

CYL (Cylinder) & Axis

A cylinder value indicates astigmatisms or perpetually blurry vision. Axis—measured between 1 and 180°— tell us the orientation of the astigmatism

ADD (Addition)

This number is sometimes written NV for near vision and is used for multifocal lenses and readers

PD (Pupillary Distance)

It's just what sounds like—the distance in millimeters (mm) between your pupils. An average PD measurement is 63 mm, but varies by person. If it's not on the prescription, you can measure it yourself by:
• printing the downloadable PD ruler.
• watching our tutorial video.

PRISM

We can process prism prescriptions to correct eye orientation

Vertical Prism is used to help correct vertical eye misalignments and is prescribed in opposite directions for both eyes

Horizontal Prism is used to help correct lateral eye misalignments and is always prescribed in the same direction for both eyes

Be a Frequent Fashion Flyer with Aviator Eyeglasses from EyeBuyDirect

Everybody wants a pair of aviator eyeglasses—they’re sporty, unisex in style and adaptable to most wardrobe preferences. Harkening back to the days when daring airplane pilots flew planes without any protection, aviator glasses were made specifically to safeguard pilots from the glare of intense sunlight and strong winds. The larger-than-normal frames and lenses extended to the eyebrows and down to the middle of the cheeks. Today, aviator eyeglasses are slightly smaller and come in a variety of frame materials, but they still have the double-nose bridge indicative of classic aviator glasses.

Extremely popular in the 70s and 80s, aviator glasses frames took a back seat to other frame styles in the 90s. They’ve made a comeback in the 2000s due to both male and female celebrities sporting them while out on the town. Offering an upscale yet earthy look, aviator eyeglasses and sunglasses give your face symmetry and proportion while gracing your overall appearance with a sense of spontaneity and intensity
