A spare pair of glasses can be a real lifesaver, especially if you misplace your original pair. Lots of people also find it useful to have prescription glasses that are specifically designed for certain activities. And if you are always looking for ways to mix up your style, it can be very convenient to have glasses ready to wear that match your wardrobe on every occasion. There are so many different reasons why having a second pair of eyewear is worthwhile. Our 2-for-1 range<\/a><\/span><\/strong> is a great option if you want to stay in style whilst also sticking to your budget. Meanwhile, if you\u2019re a bit of a fashionista who is keen to make a statement with your new eyewear, having two pairs of Premium Designer glasses<\/a><\/span><\/strong> is a worthwhile investment to make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve come up with a few ideas of what to do with your second pair of glasses to help give you some inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A simple, professional alternative for work<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps your usual taste in glasses is big, bright and bold and you\u2019re looking for a way to keep things neutral at work. Or maybe you\u2019re in need of a formal piece of eyewear that is versatile and will function well with your everyday look. Either way, having a spare pair of glasses to complement your professional style is an excellent idea. We have a wide range of stylish designs which are perfect for this kind of occasion! We\u2019d recommend a pair of chic semi-rimless frames<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, a simple all-black rectangular design<\/span><\/strong><\/a>, or alternatively a pair of round metal glasse<\/span>s<\/strong><\/a>. All of these classic styles are extremely versatile and will work perfectly. Their understated design will help showcase your formal clothing without distracting attention away.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Keep a spare pair of glasses in the car<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Keep safe on the road by wearing the appropriate eyewear. Storing a spare pair of glasses in your car is a convenient way to make sure you remember to wear them. We would recommend that you choose our advanced Transitions\u00ae Drivewear\u00ae lenses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> to go with your chosen frame. As the only polarised sun lens built to adapt to changing light, it combines light intelligent technology with polarisation to reduce reflective glare in all weather conditions. The lenses react to UV and visible light for a seamless visual experience whilst driving. They also prevent impaired vision due to rapidly changing light conditions. The lenses are an olive-green colour and darken behind the windshield of your car. The colour changes according to the amount of light there is and the lenses can protect you from bright light outdoors. However, this option is not suitable for driving at night or for indoor use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you drive at night more frequently as part of your job or for another reason, you would benefit from our lens packages<\/span><\/strong><\/a>, especially those that include an anti-reflective coating. This lens coating is useful for driving at night because it reduces the dazzling reflected glare of car headlights.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Dress to impress for an evening out<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for the perfect finishing touch to a special evening outfit, our 2-for-1 Designer range<\/span><\/strong><\/a> could be the perfect place to get your spare pair of glasses. You\u2019re sure to find something you love as this collection is home to popular brands like Levi\u2019s<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00ae<\/strong><\/a><\/span>, MINI EYEWEAR<\/span><\/strong><\/a>, Tommy Jeans<\/span><\/strong><\/a> and more. Choose two frames and stand out at every event you\u2019re invited to, or alternatively, use the other pair for something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better still, if you\u2019re really hoping to turn heads at a special event, why not indulge in our Premium<\/a><\/strong><\/span> brands, like Ray-Ban\u00ae<\/span><\/strong><\/a> and <\/a>kate spade new york<\/a><\/strong><\/span>? Find the perfect pair of glasses to keep as a spare for special occasions. Upgrade your style and dress to impress!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Level up your gaming eyewear<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re a gamer who spends a lot of time in front of digital screens, you\u2019ll need a sophisticated pair of prescription glasses that are comfortable to wear and that will shield your eyes. A pair of gaming glasses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> is a reliable choice when it comes to selecting a spare pair of glasses to accompany your everyday pair of prescription glasses. Blue-violet light lenses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> reduce glare and prevent digital eye strain ensuring greater visual comfort for the wearer. Stay comfortable whilst keeping your focus and concentration.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Turn your second pair into sunglasses<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve decided on a new pair of glasses, why not turn the second pair into a pair of prescription sunglasses<\/span><\/strong><\/a>? Simply add any of our sunglasses tints<\/span><\/strong><\/a> to any frame. Make sure you\u2019re prepared for warmer weather and look forward to your upcoming travels with a pair of fashionable sunnies. We have a huge variety of fashion-forward shapes, colours and designs which are sure to complement your summer wardrobe. Plus, all of our prescription sunglasses block harmful UV rays, keeping your eyes protected from the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’d also recommend Transitions\u00ae lenses. They adapt seamlessly to changing light, staying clear when you’re indoors and getting darker when you go outside. These sophisticated lenses block 100% UVA\/B rays when exposed to bright sunlight. They function as both regular prescription glasses and trendy sunglasses, which makes them ideal for everyday use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transitions\u00ae lenses are suitable year-round and are ultra stylish and contemporary. In particular, Transitions\u00ae Signature\u00ae GEN8\u2122, our fastest reacting Transitions\u00ae Light Intelligent Lenses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> are cool and convenient, coming in seven style colours.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Have a pair of reading glasses handy<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While we have a range of bifocal and varifocal lenses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> which help you to see at more than one distance, we appreciate that some people prefer to have two pairs of glasses for different activities. In this case, you may decide to keep a spare pair of glasses to use exclusively for reading a book or looking at things up close.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Give something new a try<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re keen to test a new look, or you have your sights set on a particular pair that you\u2019re not sure whether or not will suit you, this could be a good opportunity to try a new style. Get a feel for your chosen frame first with our free Home Trial<\/span><\/strong><\/a>. See how it looks and feels alongside your favourite designs and decide which you prefer. You\u2019ll have seven days to try up to four frames from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an alternative, you can also get an idea of what suits your face shape<\/span><\/strong><\/a> with our handy guide. Plus, you can use our Best Fit Machine<\/span><\/strong><\/a> to find frames that will fit as comfortably as your current pair.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Stay active with sporty glasses<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for those who love to stay active, a pair of sports prescription glasses can come in really handy. We have an array of popular sports brands for you to choose from, including Oakley<\/span><\/strong><\/a>, our own exclusive Harrington Sport<\/span><\/strong><\/a> range and trendy Puma<\/span><\/strong><\/a> frames. Sports eyewear is specially designed to fit securely on your face and to be extremely durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, you\u2019ll want the lenses to be as hard-wearing as possible, especially during very intense exercise when there is a risk of damage. Our affordable lens packages<\/span><\/strong><\/a> are a great option. Their scratch-resistant coating keeps them protected. And, depending on which package you choose, you\u2019ll also benefit from UV protection and an anti-reflective coating. This will eliminate troublesome reflections and glare for clear vision allowing you to focus on your performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you participate in a lot of outdoor activities and prefer sunglasses, we\u2019d also recommend you try polarised lenses. These types of sunglasses are particularly suited to sports that involve water, including fishing, sailing and kayaking. They are also ideal for running, especially if your route takes you past rivers or large stretches of water. They cut horizontal glare for greater visual comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

An extra pair in case of emergencies<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You never know when you\u2019ll need a backup pair of glasses. It\u2019s easy to misplace them, especially if you travel a lot or your daily routine keeps you busy and constantly on the move. It\u2019s best to have a pair ready just in case!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Give the second pair to a friend<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you’re purchasing from our 2-for-1 range as a way to save money, you can always choose to give the free second frame to a friend or loved one. Simply pick your first frame, select your lenses and lens packages then select the second frame for a loved one. Share your spare<\/span><\/strong><\/a> pair of glasses with someone else and split the cost between the two of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
