The Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 prescription eyeglasses bring a modern edge to Oakley's frame design. Built from ultra-lightweight, corrosion-resistant titanium, these half-rim rectangular frames deliver a barely-there feel with a contemporary square lens shape that balances rounded facial features. This is the optical (non-sun) version of the frame, designed specifically for prescription lenses.
The semi-rimless construction keeps weight to an absolute minimum while maintaining structural integrity. Integrated spring hinges maximize comfort and retention throughout your day, flexing naturally with head movement. Adjustable Grip-fit clear nosepads let you dial in a personalized fit for all-day wear.
Available in multiple finishes including Satin Black, Pewter, Matte Dark Navy, Satin Light Gold, and Bronze, the Wingback SQ 5148 comes in two lens widths: 54mm and 56mm, both with an 18mm bridge and 136mm temples. The hypoallergenic titanium frame is prescription-ready and accommodates most prescription lenses, including single vision, progressive, and high-index options for stronger prescriptions.
These frames ship with a protective carrying case and cleaning cloth. The Wingback SQ 5148 delivers the performance-driven comfort and precision engineering Oakley is known for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 eyeglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Wingback SQ 5148 frames are fully prescription-ready and can accommodate most prescription lenses, including single vision, progressive, bifocal, and high-index lenses for stronger prescriptions. The semi-rimless titanium construction allows for easy lens installation and adjustment by optical professionals.
How much do the Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 frames weigh?
The Wingback SQ 5148 is one of Oakley's lightest eyeglass frames, constructed from ultra-lightweight titanium. Customer reviews consistently note the frames are extremely light on the nose, with many wearers describing a barely-there feel during all-day wear. The exact weight varies slightly by size and color, but the titanium construction ensures minimal pressure on the bridge and temples.
What is the difference between the 54mm and 56mm sizes?
The Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 is available in two lens widths: 54mm and 56mm. Both sizes feature the same 18mm bridge width and 136mm temple length. The 54mm size fits small to medium faces, while the 56mm works better for medium to large faces. Both sizes maintain the same lightweight titanium construction and feature set.
What are Unobtainium earsocks and why do they matter?
Unobtainium is Oakley's proprietary grip material used on the temple tips (earsocks). Unlike standard temple materials, Unobtainium actually increases grip when it gets wet from perspiration or moisture, helping keep the frames securely in place and optically aligned throughout your day. This makes the Wingback SQ ideal for active wear and ensures the frames won't slip during movement.
Can I adjust the nose pads on the Wingback SQ 5148?
Yes, the Wingback SQ 5148 features adjustable Grip-fit clear nosepads that can be customized for an ideal fit. The nosepads can be adjusted by an optician to accommodate different nose bridge heights and widths, ensuring all-day comfort and proper optical alignment. The titanium frame material also allows for minor adjustments to the overall fit.
What warranty comes with Oakley Wingback SQ eyeglasses?
Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 frames come with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or modifications. Authentic Oakley frames purchased from authorized retailers include manufacturer packaging and can be serviced through Oakley's warranty process.

Oakley Wingback SQ 5148 vs. Other Oakley Titanium Frames
Choosing between Oakley's titanium prescription frames often comes down to how much frame you want around your lenses. The Wingback SQ 5148 occupies the middle ground with its semi-rimless design, offering more structure than a fully rimless frame while staying lighter than full-rim options.
Wingback SQ 5148 vs. Metal Plate Ti 5153
The Metal Plate Ti 5153 features a full-rim rectangular design with thicker brow architecture, creating a bolder, more prominent look compared to the Wingback SQ's minimalist semi-rimless construction. Both use the same ultra-lightweight titanium and Unobtainium earsocks, but the Metal Plate Ti's full rim adds slight weight while providing more lens protection. If you prefer a more substantial frame presence or need maximum durability for drill-mount prescriptions, the Metal Plate Ti is the better choice. If you want the lightest possible feel with a cleaner, less obtrusive look, the Wingback SQ wins.
Wingback SQ 5148 vs. Gauge 3.1 5126
The Gauge 3.1 takes minimalism even further with a completely rimless design and beta titanium construction with flexible hinges. It's the lightest option and offers the most unobtrusive look, but the rimless design means less lens protection and potentially higher lens replacement costs. The Wingback SQ's semi-rimless construction provides a better balance of lightweight comfort and structural durability, making it more practical for active lifestyles while still maintaining a refined appearance.
Which Should You Choose?
The Wingback SQ 5148 is the ideal choice if you want Oakley's signature lightweight titanium comfort with a modern square lens shape that balances style and function. Its semi-rimless design offers more durability than rimless frames while staying lighter than full-rim options. The spring hinges, adjustable nosepads, and Unobtainium earsocks make it exceptionally comfortable for all-day wear, whether you're at a desk or staying active. For customers who value the barely-there feel without sacrificing frame integrity, the Wingback SQ delivers the best of both worlds.
