Men's Eyeglasses Price by Frame Type
Frame material is the biggest driver of price after brand name. Here's what to expect at each tier:
| Frame Type | Price Range (PKR) | Weight | Durability | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metal (Stainless / Monel) | 1,500 – 4,000 | Medium | Good — adjust with care | Office wear, formal settings |
| Acetate | 2,000 – 5,000 | Medium | Excellent — holds colour, flexes without snapping | Fashion-forward looks, bold colours |
| Rimless | 2,500 – 5,500 | Ultra Light | Moderate — lenses more exposed to damage | Minimalist look, professional environments |
| Semi-Rimless | 2,000 – 4,500 | Light | Good — rim protects top of lens | Balance between minimal and sturdy |
| Titanium | 3,500 – 8,000 | Ultra Light | Exceptional — corrosion-resistant, hypoallergenic | All-day wear, sensitive skin, active lifestyles |
| TR90 (Flexible Plastic) | 1,500 – 3,000 | Very Light | High — memory flex, impact-resistant | Sports, rough handling, budget-conscious buyers |
Popular Brands for Men's Eyeglasses in Pakistan
Brand reputation, hinge quality, and finishing separate a PKR 2,000 frame from a PKR 7,000 one. Here are the leading names at Chashmaywaly:

How to Choose Eyeglasses for Your Face Shape
The right frame shape balances your facial proportions and reflects your personality. Here's a practical guide for men:
| Face Shape | Characteristics | Best Frame Styles | Avoid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round | Soft jawline, full cheeks, equal width and length | Rectangular, square, angular frames — add structure | Round frames that amplify softness |
| Square | Broad jaw, wide forehead, strong angles | Oval, round, rimless — soften the jaw | Boxy or sharp rectangular frames |
| Oval | Balanced proportions, slightly narrow forehead and jaw | Most styles work — wayfarer, clubmaster, rectangular | Oversized frames that overwhelm the face |
| Oblong | Longer than wide, narrow cheekbones | Oversized, deep frames, aviator shape — adds width | Small, narrow frames that elongate further |
| Diamond | Narrow forehead and jaw, wide cheekbones | Cat-eye (yes, for men too), oval, browline — draw attention upward | Narrow or boxy frames that emphasise cheekbone width |
Frame Size Matters
Beyond shape, size is critical. A frame that's too wide slides down; too narrow pinches the temples. Check three numbers printed on the inside of the temple arm:
- Lens width (e.g. 52mm) — Should align with the width of your eyes in the lens area
- Bridge width (e.g. 18mm) — Must match your nose bridge so the frame doesn't sit too high or low
- Temple length (e.g. 140mm) — Should reach comfortably behind your ears without pressing
Most men find a comfortable fit between 50-56mm lens width and 135-145mm temple length. Our glasses frame guide covers sizing in detail.
Lens Options and Add-Ons for Men's Eyeglasses
The frame is only half the equation — the right lens type transforms your eyeglasses from basic to exceptional. Here are the options and their costs:
| Lens Type | What It Does | Typical Add-On Cost (PKR) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Vision | Corrects one field of vision (near or far) | Included in base price | Most prescription users under 40 |
| Bifocal | Two zones — distance on top, reading at bottom | +PKR 800 – 1,500 | Users over 40 with presbyopia |
| Progressive (No-Line Bifocal) | Smooth transition from distance to near with no visible line | +PKR 2,000 – 4,500 | Natural-looking multifocal correction |
| Blue-Cut Coating | Filters blue light from screens | +PKR 500 – 1,200 | Office workers, gamers, students |
| Anti-Glare (AR) Coating | Reduces reflections, improves clarity | +PKR 500 – 1,500 | Night driving, photography, video calls |
| Photochromic (Transition) | Darkens outdoors, clears indoors | +PKR 1,500 – 3,000 | Men who frequently move between indoors and outdoors |
Online vs Local Optical Store — Which Is Better?
Many Pakistani men still buy eyeglasses from local optical shops out of habit. Here's how that compares to ordering online from Chashmaywaly:
| Factor | Local Optical Shop | Chashmaywaly (Online) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | 30-50% markup over online prices | Direct pricing — PKR 1,500 to 8,000 |
| Brand Selection | Limited to what's in stock (usually 2-3 brands) | 10+ brands, hundreds of models |
| Convenience | Requires a physical visit during shop hours | Order from home, delivered in 2-4 days |
| Prescription Handling | In-house lens fitting | Upload prescription online or via WhatsApp |
| Returns | Most shops refuse returns | 7-day hassle-free returns |
| Payment | Cash only (most shops) | COD, bank transfer, card |
The one advantage local shops hold is the ability to try frames in person. For this, we recommend visiting a local shop to identify your preferred frame size and shape, then ordering the same style online at a lower price.

Care Tips for Men's Eyeglasses
A good pair of eyeglasses should last 2-3 years with proper care. Follow these tips:
- Always use both hands to remove eyeglasses — Pulling from one side loosens the temple hinge over time.
- Clean with microfibre cloth only — Tissues and shirt fabric scratch lens coatings. Use the microfibre cloth included with your Chashmaywaly order.
- Store in a hard case — Tossing glasses into a bag or pocket causes scratches and bent temples.
- Avoid extreme heat — Don't leave eyeglasses on the car dashboard. Pakistani summers can warp acetate frames and damage lens coatings.
- Rinse before wiping — Run lenses under lukewarm water first to wash away dust particles that could scratch during wiping.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the starting price of men's eyeglasses in Pakistan?
Men's eyeglasses at Chashmaywaly start from PKR 1,500 for metal and TR90 frames with basic single-vision lenses. Branded frames from Emporio Armani and Carrera start at PKR 2,500, while premium titanium options reach up to PKR 8,000.
Can I order eyeglasses online with my prescription?
Yes. Upload your prescription at checkout or share it via WhatsApp. We fit single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses and ship the completed eyeglasses with free delivery across Pakistan.
How long does it take to get prescription eyeglasses delivered?
Standard prescription eyeglasses are dispatched within 1-2 business days after prescription verification, with delivery in 2-4 business days depending on your city. Total turnaround is typically 3-6 business days.
Which frame material is the most durable?
Titanium is the most durable frame material — it's lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and hypoallergenic. For a budget-friendly durable option, TR90 plastic offers excellent flexibility and impact resistance at a fraction of the price.
Are expensive eyeglass brands worth it?
Branded frames offer superior hinge construction, better finishing, and more precise lens alignment. If you wear eyeglasses daily for 10+ hours, investing in a PKR 3,500+ branded frame pays off in comfort and longevity. For occasional or backup use, budget frames at PKR 1,500-2,500 work well.
What lens coating should I get for office work?
For desk jobs involving 6+ hours of screen time, combine blue-cut coating with anti-reflective (AR) coating. Blue-cut filters digital blue light, while AR coating reduces distracting reflections from overhead office lighting and monitors. Together, they add PKR 1,000-2,500 to the base frame price.
