The Marchon NYC M 5505 eyeglasses bring together practical design and everyday versatility in a women’s rectangle frame. Built from durable acetate, these full-rim frames feature a translucent finish that shows depth and dimension—visible in the blue and grey colorways with their subtle gradient effect, and in the warmer brown and red tones. The 52mm lens width and 16mm bridge deliver a medium fit that works well for oval, round, and heart-shaped faces, while the 140mm temples provide secure, comfortable wear throughout the day.
Acetate isn’t just a style choice—it’s a functional one. This plant-based material is naturally hypoallergenic and lightweight, making it comfortable for extended wear without the irritation some people experience with metal frames. The smooth surface won’t dig into your skin, and the material’s flexibility means these frames can handle daily use without becoming brittle. Acetate also holds color exceptionally well, so the translucent hues stay vibrant over time.
These frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The full-rim design provides excellent support for stronger prescriptions, as the frame edge helps conceal lens thickness. The rectangle shape offers a generous lens area, making it a solid choice for progressive wearers who need clear zones for distance, intermediate, and near vision. Whether you need basic vision correction or specialized lenses with anti-reflective coating or blue light filtering, the M 5505 can accommodate your needs.
The 52-16-140 sizing translates to a medium fit. The 52mm lens width suits most face sizes, while the 16mm bridge sits comfortably on the nose without pinching or sliding. At this price point, you’re getting a frame from a manufacturer with over 40 years of experience in eyewear design—Marchon NYC combines classic sensibility with modern materials, offering quality at a value that makes prescription eyewear accessible.
