Product Information

Full details

The Cartier Santos Classic Ct 0554O optical frame is designed for the discerning adult male seeking refined everyday eyewear. Its key benefit lies in its lightweight, durable titanium construction combined with signature Santos detailing for a sophisticated look and comfortable fit. A potential caveat to consider is that semi-rimless frames may require more careful handling during lens insertion compared to full-rimmed alternatives. This frame offers a semi-rimless rectangular design in a yellow gold-tone finish, built with lightweight titanium and flexible beta-titanium temples, featuring adjustable nose pads and acetate temple tips for enhanced comfort.

FAQs

Are these frames suitable for all types of vision correction?

Yes, the Cartier Santos Classic Ct 0554O frames are compatible with most prescription lenses, including single vision, bifocals, and progressives, and can be fitted by a qualified optician.

How do I clean my Cartier optical frames?

Clean the lenses with a soft microfibre cloth. For the frame, use a slightly damp microfibre cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and always store them in the provided case.

What material are the temple tips made of?

The temple tips are made of acetate, which provides a comfortable finish behind the ears.

Can I adjust the fit of these frames myself?

You can adjust the nose pads for a personalized fit. For adjustments to the temples or frame structure, it is best to consult a professional optician.

What does 'semi-rimless' mean for this frame?

A semi-rimless frame has a rim around the top portion of the lens but is open or has a minimal structure around the bottom and sides, giving a lighter appearance.

What are the dimensions of the frame?

The frame has a lens width of 56 mm, a bridge width of 18 mm, and a temple length of 145 mm, generally considered a medium frame size.

What is the primary benefit of the titanium construction?

The primary benefit is its lightweight nature, which contributes significantly to comfortable, all-day wear without adding excessive weight to the face.

Troubleshooting

Frame feels loose or unstable

Gently adjust the nose pads for a more secure fit. If the temples feel too loose, consult an optician for potential adjustment or tightening.

Discoloration or dullness on the frame

Ensure the frame is cleaned regularly with a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals. If the issue persists, consult your optician.

Acetate temple tips feel uncomfortable

Adjust the nose pads to improve the overall fit. If the temple tips are causing specific discomfort, an optician may be able to make minor adjustments.

Scratches on the lenses

Lenses are separate from the frame and may need replacement. Consult your optician for lens replacement options. Frame scratches can sometimes be polished by an optician, but care should be taken.
