The Elasta 7193 eyeglasses are men's prescription-ready frames that deliver professional style and exceptional durability. Made from lightweight stainless steel, these full-rim rectangle frames feature a clean, understated design that works equally well in the boardroom or on the weekend.
The 7193's metal construction resists corrosion and maintains its finish through years of daily wear. The wire-core temples curve gently inward for a secure, comfortable fit behind the ears, while the 18mm bridge provides stable support without pressure. Available in four finishes—Ruthenium, Brown, Havana Pewter, and Gray Pewter—and four sizes (52mm, 54mm, 56mm, and 58mm eye widths), the 7193 accommodates a range of face shapes and prescription needs.
These frames are part of Safilo's Elasta collection, a line known for reliability and conservative styling. The 7193 is prescription-ready and accepts single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The full-rim design secures lenses firmly while the stainless steel frame material offers excellent strength-to-weight ratio—durable enough for daily use, light enough for all-day comfort.
Rectangle frames like the 7193 add structure and definition, particularly flattering on round or oval face shapes. The straight top line and slightly curved bottom edge create a business-appropriate look that's never gone out of style. The single-bridge construction and minimal detailing keep the focus on clean lines rather than embellishment.
Elasta frames are manufactured in Italy by the Safilo Group, one of the world's largest eyewear producers. The brand emphasizes practical design and build quality over fashion trends, targeting customers who value frames that last. Stainless steel's resistance to rust, tarnishing, and everyday wear makes it a smart choice for prescription eyeglasses you'll wear for years.

What face shapes work best with rectangle eyeglasses?
Rectangle frames like the Elasta 7193 are particularly flattering on round and oval face shapes, as the straight lines and angular design add definition and structure. They create a professional, business-like appearance and help balance softer facial features. The 7193's clean lines also work well on heart-shaped and diamond-shaped faces.
What material are the Elasta 7193 frames made from?
The Elasta 7193 frames are constructed from stainless steel, a durable metal known for its corrosion resistance, lightweight comfort, and ability to maintain its finish over time. Stainless steel frames resist rust and tarnishing, making them ideal for daily wear. The material also allows for precise adjustments to ensure a customized fit.

The Elasta 7193 is available in four eye sizes: 52mm, 54mm, 56mm, and 58mm, with corresponding temple lengths of 140mm, 145mm, or 150mm depending on the size. All sizes feature an 18mm bridge width. The variety of sizes ensures a proper fit for different face widths and prescription requirements.
Do Elasta frames have spring hinges?
Yes, many Elasta frames feature the brand's proprietary spring hinge system, which provides flexibility and durability. These spring hinges allow the temples to flex outward slightly, reducing stress on the frame and improving comfort. The flexible hinge design is a signature feature of the Elasta collection and contributes to the frames' long-term reliability.

Elasta 7193 vs. Similar Models: Which Rectangle Frame Is Right for You?
If you're considering the Elasta 7193, you're likely also looking at other rectangle metal frames in the Elasta collection. Here's how the 7193 compares to its closest siblings.
Elasta 7193 vs. Elasta 7196
Both the 7193 and 7196 are men's rectangle frames made from durable stainless steel, but they differ in sizing and finish options. The 7193 offers four sizes (52mm, 54mm, 56mm, and 58mm), including a larger 58mm option that's ideal for customers with wider faces or those who need more lens area for progressive prescriptions. The 7196, meanwhile, comes in three sizes (53mm, 55mm, 57mm) with six color options including contemporary brushed finishes.
If you need the largest possible frame or prefer classic finishes like Havana Pewter, the 7193 is your best choice. If you want more color variety and prefer the modern look of brushed metal, consider the 7196. Both models share the same Elasta quality construction and spring hinge flexibility, so your decision comes down to fit and finish preference.
Elasta 7193 vs. Elasta 7045
The 7045 is another rectangle option in the Elasta 7000 series, offering similar professional styling and stainless steel construction. The 7193 maintains a more consistent price point at $91.48, while the 7045 ranges from $91.48 to $128.00 depending on size and finish. For budget-conscious shoppers, the 7193 offers predictable pricing and proven durability—customer reviews mention wearing the same 7193 frames for over 15 years.
Why Choose the Elasta 7193?
The 7193 stands out for its size range (especially the 58mm option), proven long-term durability, and straightforward pricing. It's an excellent choice for customers who prioritize reliability and classic styling over trendy finishes. The four available colors—Ruthenium, Brown, Havana Pewter, and Gray Pewter—cover all the professional neutrals you need without overwhelming you with options.
