FRENCH-AMERICAN DESIGN HERITAGE
Oleg Cassini Eyeglasses: The Heritage of American Elegance
Oleg Cassini was born in Paris, trained in Rome, and built his name in New York-so when his eyewear line declares American Elegance in Eyewear, the phrase carries real weight. Since 1936, the collection has translated couture-era proportion into frames women actually reach for: cat-eye silhouettes for weekend brunches in SoHo, clean rectangles for boardrooms in Chicago, and softly rounded profiles for everything…

MATERIAL, QUALITY & COMFORT
Why Oleg Cassini Frames Feel Different at Hour Eight
A frame that pinches by noon is a frame you’ll stop wearing by Tuesday. Oleg Cassini eyeglasses are built with materials and construction details that keep pressure points at bay from your morning coffee through your evening commute.
Durable Premium Acetate
Oleg Cassini’s acetate frames use a high-quality, dense cellulose-based plastic that resists warping and maintains its color depth over months of daily wear. Each piece is polished to a smooth finish that won’t snag on hair or irritate the skin behind your ears.
Spring Hinge Flexibility
Spring-loaded hinges allow each temple arm to flex outward with gentle give, reducing the clamping pressure on your temples throughout the day. This mechanism absorbs the micro-adjustments your face makes-yawning, chewing, turning your head-without loosening the frame’s overall hold.
Metal & Acetate Hybrid Construction
Several Oleg Cassini models pair a metal core within the temples alongside an acetate shell, giving the frame structural rigidity where it counts while keeping the surface warm to the touch. This combination prevents the cold, stiff feel you’d get from all-metal frames during winter.
Hypoallergenic & Nickel-Free Build
Select Oleg Cassini styles are built with nickel-free hardware and hypoallergenic acetate, so women with sensitive skin can wear them through a full workday without redness or irritation forming along the nose pads or around the ears.
The Full Range: $16 to $300 Across Every Silhouette
Cat eye frames that lift at the corners. Oversized shapes that make a statement. Rectangles built for every day. Oleg Cassini eyeglasses span nearly twenty-fold in price-from under $17 at budget-friendly retailers to $300 for rare vintage finds-so the style you love doesn’t have to be the price you dread.

SPOTLIGHT: SPARKLING RHINESTONE DETAIL
Oleg Cassini OCO354 Eyeglasses
The OCO354 frame puts rhinestone detailing front and center, with small crystal accents set along the full rim that catch and scatter light from every angle. The rectangle silhouette keeps the look grounded and flattering on oval, round, and heart-shaped faces, while those glinting stones lift the frame from everyday eyewear into statement territory. At 54mm lens width and 36mm eye height, the proportions offer…
- Rhinestone accents set along the full rim create a subtle sparkle that reads as intentional glamour, not costume jewelry
- Rectangle shape with 140mm total width flatters a range of face shapes while keeping the proportions balanced
- Prescription-ready: compatible with distance, reading, bifocal, and progressive lenses at most optical shops
- Eye width of 54mm and 16mm nose bridge deliver a comfortable medium-to-large fit for extended wear
- Printed-gray colorway lets the rhinestones stand out without competing with your wardrobe
BUYING GUIDE
How to Pick the Perfect Pair
Oleg Cassini frames ship with demo lenses and are fitted for custom prescription lenses at most optical stores. Here is how to read the numbers and choose a pair that fits your face comfortably.
Measured in millimeters across one lens, this number ranges from 45 mm on compact rectangles to 60 mm on oversized shapes. Match it to your pupillary distance and the coverage you prefer.
The distance between the two lenses, typically 15 to 18 mm in this collection. A well-fitted bridge keeps the frame stable on your nose without pinching or sliding.
The arm length from hinge to ear tip, available in 120, 130, 135, and 140 mm. Longer temples suit higher cheekbones; shorter arms reduce pressure behind the ear.
The vertical measurement of each lens, ranging from 31 to 60 mm across styles. Progressive and bifocal wearers need at least 30 mm to fit all prescription zones comfortably.
Frames accept distance, reading, bifocal, and progressive lenses. Higher prescriptions may benefit from narrower lens widths to reduce edge thickness and overall frame weight.
Total front width runs from 130 to 140 mm in this line. Measure your face from temple to temple and aim for a frame width within 5 mm of that number for a proportional look.

No. Every pair of Oleg Cassini eyeglasses ships with non-prescription demo lenses that feature the brand logo printed in ink. These placeholders protect the frame during shipping and give you a realistic sense of how the glasses will look once fitted. You’ll need to visit an optical shop to have your prescription lenses cut and installed.
Yes-Oleg Cassini frames can be fitted with custom lenses at most optical stores across the United States. Bring your current prescription along with the frame, and the optician will measure the bridge width, lens height, and temple length to order lenses that match your vision needs precisely.
Depending on the frame style, your optician can install single-vision distance lenses, reading lenses, bifocal lenses, or progressive lenses. For example, the OCO354 model accommodates all four lens types. Ask your optical shop which option best suits your daily routine-whether that’s driving on I-95 or reading at your desk.
Wipe the lenses and frame daily with a microfiber cloth to remove oils and dust. For deeper cleaning, rinse under lukewarm tap water-never hot, which can warp plastic acetate-and apply a small drop of mild dish soap. Dry gently; avoid paper towels, which can scratch both lenses and decorative finishes over time.
With proper care, acetate and metal-plastic combination frames like the OCO360 typically last two to three years of daily use. Spring hinges help absorb stress from repeated on-and-off motion, extending hinge life compared to fixed-hinge designs. That said, dropping frames on hard surfaces like tile or concrete can crack the rim regardless of build quality.
Each frame ships in a generic protective case that shields the lenses from scratches in a purse, backpack, or glove compartment. For travel, consider pairing it with a hard-shell case-especially for rhinestone-accented styles where decorative elements could snag on soft fabric pouches.
Certain styles, such as the OCO 355 cat eye, are labeled hypoallergenic and nickel-free, making them suitable for sensitive skin. If you have a known metal allergy, check the product specifications before purchasing. Plastic acetate frames avoid metal contact entirely at the bridge and temples.
