Genuine Oliver Peoples lenses — guaranteed
Ordered directly through Luxottica, the manufacturer of Oliver Peoples eyewear — never aftermarket copies. Every pair carries the correct Oliver Peoples etchings and a certificate of authenticity, cut to your frame’s original specification.
Genuine Oliver Peoples replacement lenses from Sunglasses UK
Genuine Oliver Peoples replacement lenses, cut specifically for the Fairmont Sun (OV5219S). The Fairmont is a modified P3 shape in thin acetate, made in a single size, which makes ordering lenses for it straightforward. Every pair carries the correct Oliver Peoples etchings and a certificate of authenticity from Luxottica, with full UV protection as standard.
What size is the Fairmont?
One size only: a 49mm lens width with a 21mm bridge, printed inside the left temple arm as 49-21. There is no second width to confuse it with, so provided your frame is an OV5219S the lens will fit. Give us the number when you order anyway — it confirms we are cutting for the right frame.
Finding your OV5219S colour code
The colour code follows the model code inside the left arm: four digits, a slash, two characters. The frame shown here is 1094/52. It identifies the tint the frame was glazed with, so we need it exactly as printed.
Choosing your lenses
Five tints are available. Non-polarised returns the frame to its original glazing. Polarised removes reflected glare, which is the difference most people notice when driving. Polarised with a graduated tint runs darker across the top of the lens and clears towards the bottom. Mirror finishes, with or without polarisation, add a reflective front surface, which reads boldly against the thinner Fairmont front.
Fitting your lenses
The Fairmont front is thin acetate, so it is warmed before the lens is seated and the rim flexes rather than splits. Choose Sunglasses UK to fit and we will do it for an additional £10 — send the frame once the Royal Mail returns label arrives by email. Choose Customer to fit and the lenses come to you or your optician.
We also supply replacement temples, hinge screws and cases for the Fairmont OV5219S. For a different Oliver Peoples model, use our main Oliver Peoples replacement lenses page.
Common questions
Are these genuine Oliver Peoples lenses?
Yes. Every lens is ordered directly through Luxottica, the manufacturer of Oliver Peoples eyewear — never an aftermarket copy. Each pair carries the correct Oliver Peoples etchings and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
What information do you need to order my lenses?
Three details, printed inside your frame’s left temple arm: the model code (e.g. OV5217S), the colour code (e.g. 1005/53) and the frame size, shown as two numbers such as 49-22. Add these to the Replacement Lens Details boxes when you order. If the engraving has worn away, email a photo of the inside arm to ben@sunglassesuk.com and we will identify it for you.
Can I fit the replacement lenses myself?
Yes. Choose “Customer to fit” and we will send the loose lenses for you, or a local optician, to fit. Prefer us to do it? Choose “Sunglasses UK to fit” (+£10) and we will email a Royal Mail returns label so you can send us the frame.
Does the frame need warming to fit the lenses?
Yes. Oliver Peoples frames are acetate, so the front is warmed before a lens is seated — that lets the rim flex rather than split. If you would rather not do that yourself, choose “Sunglasses UK to fit” and our workshop will handle it.
How long do replacement lenses take to arrive?
Lenses are made to order and usually take 5–10 working days to arrive from Italy. If we hold your lenses in stock they are dispatched the next working day, and any Next Day Delivery you have paid for applies from the moment they reach us.
Do the lenses come as a pair?
Yes — you receive two lenses, both with the correct Oliver Peoples etchings, plus a certificate of authenticity. Full UV protection is standard.
Which Oliver Peoples models can you supply lenses for?
The entire range, including discontinued and unlisted frames. Gregory Peck OV5217S, O’Malley OV5183S, Sheldrake OV5036S, Cary Grant OV5413SU and Fairmont OV5219S have their own pages. For anything else, order from this page and give us your frame details at checkout.
Can I cancel my order once it is placed?
Because Oliver Peoples lenses are custom items ordered directly from Luxottica for your specific frame, orders cannot be cancelled once placed. All fittings and repairs are carried out at the customer’s own risk.
