The Sferoflex 1556 Eyeglasses bring together retro-inspired cat-eye styling and the brand’s signature comfort technology in a prescription-ready frame designed for women. Available in two lens widths—51mm and 53mm—and a range of gradient and solid acetate finishes, the 1556 adapts to your face size and personal style without compromise.
Sferoflex frames are built around a patented flexible hinge system that’s been refined since 1941. A spring mechanism inside each temple allows the arms to flex outward and adapt to the size and shape of your face, eliminating the pressure points and temple squeeze common in rigid frames. The result is a secure, non-slip fit that feels custom-made, even after hours of continuous wear. This flex-temple design is particularly valuable if you’ve struggled to find glasses that don’t pinch or slide—the 1556 conforms to you, not the other way around.
The frame is constructed from cellulose acetate, a plant-based material formed by layering and fusing sheets of cellulose. Acetate offers several advantages over conventional injection-molded plastic: it’s stronger and more flexible (reducing breakage), hypoallergenic (safe for sensitive skin), and capable of richer, fade-resistant color. The full-rim cat-eye shape provides excellent lens stability and a polished, put-together look that works equally well in professional settings and casual outings. The 135mm temples and 17mm bridge ensure a balanced fit across medium faces.
The Sferoflex 1556 ships with demo lenses and is fully prescription-ready—compatible with single-vision, progressive, and reading lenses. Choosing between the 51mm and 53mm lens width depends on your face size: 51mm suits small to medium faces (typically under 5’7″), while 53mm works better for medium to larger faces. Both sizes share the same 17mm bridge and 135mm temple length, so the primary difference is overall frame width and lens coverage.
