The Ray-Ban Elliot RB5397 eyeglasses bring a fresh geometric perspective to prescription eyewear. These frames feature an irregular shape that sits somewhere between round and angular—a modern interpretation that draws subtle inspiration from Ray-Ban's iconic hexagonal designs while carving out its own identity.
Design and Construction
Built entirely from acetate, the Elliot 5397 delivers the durability you expect from Ray-Ban in a lightweight package that's comfortable for all-day wear. The full-rim construction provides excellent lens support for a wide range of prescription strengths, while integrated spring hinges add flexibility and ensure a secure fit that adapts to your face. The frames are available in multiple colorways, from classic black to rich havana tortoise patterns featuring blue and yellow tones that shift subtly in different light.
The irregular shape combines clean lines with softened edges—geometric precision without harsh angles. It's a versatile silhouette that complements oval, square, and heart-shaped faces, offering more personality than standard round frames without the boldness of traditional wayfarers. Measurements vary by size (48mm, 50mm, and 52mm lens widths available), with a 19mm bridge and temple lengths from 140-145mm depending on the variant.
Prescription-Ready Performance
These frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, and blue-light filtering lenses. The acetate construction makes adjustments straightforward for opticians, and the full-rim design conceals lens edges effectively—particularly useful for higher prescriptions. The frame depth accommodates standard progressive lens corridors, making the Elliot 5397 a practical choice for multifocal wearers.
Ray-Ban's Elliot represents contemporary eyewear design: understated enough for professional settings, distinctive enough to stand out. The unisex styling works across ages and personal styles, from minimalist wardrobes to more expressive looks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 eyeglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Ray-Ban Elliot RB5397 frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, and specialty lenses including blue-light filtering options. The full-rim acetate construction provides excellent support for a wide range of prescription strengths, and the frame depth accommodates standard progressive lens corridors.
What face shapes work best with Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 frames?
The Elliot RB5397's irregular geometric shape complements oval, square, and heart-shaped faces particularly well. The soft-edged design balances angular features on square faces, while the geometric structure adds definition to oval faces. The versatile silhouette sits between round and angular, making it adaptable to multiple face types.
What sizes are available for the Ray-Ban Elliot 5397?
The Ray-Ban Elliot RB5397 is available in three lens widths: 48mm, 50mm, and 52mm. All sizes feature a 19mm bridge width, with temple lengths ranging from 140-145mm depending on the specific variant. The different sizes ensure a proper fit across various face widths.
What material are Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 frames made from?
The Ray-Ban Elliot RB5397 frames are constructed entirely from acetate (cellulose acetate), a high-quality plastic material known for its durability, lightweight feel, and comfort. Acetate is easily adjustable by opticians for a custom fit and is hypoallergenic, making it suitable for extended daily wear.
Do Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 eyeglasses have spring hinges?
Yes, the Ray-Ban Elliot RB5397 features spring hinges that enhance flexibility and comfort. Spring hinges allow the temples to flex outward slightly, accommodating different head sizes and reducing pressure points for a more comfortable all-day fit.
What is the difference between Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 and other Ray-Ban eyeglass styles?
The Elliot RB5397 features a unique irregular geometric shape that distinguishes it from classic Ray-Ban styles like the Wayfarer or Clubmaster. It combines geometric precision with soft edges, creating a modern look that's less angular than Wayfarers but more structured than traditional round frames. The design draws subtle inspiration from Ray-Ban's hexagonal models while maintaining its own distinct identity.

Read the full comparison
Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 vs. Similar Eyeglass Styles
Choosing between Ray-Ban eyeglass frames often comes down to the balance between classic appeal and contemporary design. The Elliot 5397's irregular geometric shape positions it as a modern alternative to traditional round and rectangular frames.
Elliot 5397 vs. Ray-Ban 5362
The Ray-Ban 5362 offers a more traditional round shape compared to the Elliot's irregular geometry. If you prefer classic round frames with a softer aesthetic, the 5362 delivers that timeless look at a slightly lower price point ($118.68–$237.0). However, the Elliot 5397's geometric precision provides more facial definition and a distinctly contemporary edge. For oval and heart-shaped faces, the Elliot's angular elements add structure, while the 5362's rounder profile may be better suited for square or angular faces seeking to soften their features.
Elliot 5397 vs. Ray-Ban Clubmaster 5154
The Clubmaster 5154 represents a completely different design philosophy—the iconic browline style that's been a Ray-Ban staple since the 1950s. While the Clubmaster commands a higher price ($132.3–$280.0) and delivers vintage sophistication, the Elliot 5397 offers a more understated, modern alternative. The Clubmaster's strong upper rim creates a bold statement ideal for professional settings, whereas the Elliot's full-rim irregular shape provides versatility across casual and formal contexts. Choose the Clubmaster if you want instant recognition and retro appeal; opt for the Elliot if you prefer contemporary geometry with broader styling flexibility.
Why Choose the Elliot 5397?
The Ray-Ban Elliot 5397 stands out for customers seeking a modern frame that doesn't follow traditional categories. Its irregular shape offers more personality than standard rounds without the boldness of Wayfarers, making it ideal for those who want distinctive eyewear that remains versatile. The acetate construction with spring hinges ensures all-day comfort, while the full-rim design accommodates a wide range of prescriptions including progressives. At $108.0–$210.0, it's competitively priced within Ray-Ban's eyeglass collection and delivers a unique aesthetic that bridges classic and contemporary design.
