DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Puma Active/Fundamentals PU0096O eyeglasses bring athletic style to everyday prescription eyewear. These men's frames feature a clean rectangular shape in durable acetate with contrasting ruthenium metal temple accents that add a modern, two-tone look. Available in three versatile colors—Blue/Ruthenium, Black/Ruthenium, and Grey/Ruthenium—the PU0096O offers sporty sophistication that works from the office to the gym.

Built for Active Lifestyles

The full-rim acetate construction delivers the durability and flexibility that active wearers need. Acetate is a plant-based material known for being lightweight yet tough enough to handle daily wear without the brittleness of conventional plastic. The 56mm lens width and 17mm bridge provide a medium fit that suits most face shapes, while the 140mm temples ensure a secure, comfortable fit throughout the day. The single-bridge design keeps the look streamlined and modern.

These frames are prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The full-rim design provides excellent lens security and works well with a range of prescription strengths, including higher prescriptions that benefit from the added frame support.

Acetate Advantage

Acetate frames offer several practical benefits over standard plastic. The material is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for people with sensitive skin who experience irritation from metal frames. It's also more flexible, which means better durability and easier adjustments by your optician for a customized fit. The ruthenium metal temples add visual interest while keeping the overall weight minimal—important for all-day comfort.

The rectangular shape is one of the most versatile frame styles, complementing oval, round, and heart-shaped faces by adding structure and balance. The clean lines and sporty aesthetic reflect Puma's athletic heritage while remaining professional enough for business casual settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Puma PU0096O eyeglasses prescription-ready?

Yes, the Puma PU0096O frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The full-rim acetate construction provides excellent lens security and works well with a wide range of prescription strengths. You can also add anti-reflective coating, blue light protection, or other lens enhancements during checkout.

What is the frame size of the Puma PU0096O?

The Puma PU0096O has a 56mm lens width, 17mm bridge width, and 140mm temple length (56-17-140). This is considered a medium fit that works well for most adult men. The rectangular shape measures approximately 140mm total width across the front of the frame.

What material are these Puma eyeglasses made from?

The Puma PU0096O features acetate front frames with ruthenium metal temples. Acetate is a plant-based, hypoallergenic material that's lightweight, durable, and more flexible than conventional plastic. The ruthenium metal temple accents add a modern two-tone look while maintaining the frame's overall light weight and comfort.

Are acetate frames more durable than regular plastic?

Yes, acetate frames are significantly more durable than conventional injection-molded plastic frames. Acetate is constructed from layered cellulose sheets that are cut, formed, and polished, making it more resistant to breakage and daily wear. The material's natural flexibility allows it to withstand pressure without snapping, and the color won't chip or fade like painted plastic frames.

What face shapes work best with rectangular eyeglasses?

Rectangular frames like the Puma PU0096O work particularly well for oval and round face shapes, as the straight lines and angular corners add structure and definition. They're also suitable for heart-shaped faces. The key is ensuring the frame width is slightly wider than the widest part of your face to create balance.

Do these Puma frames come with a case and warranty?

Yes, the Puma PU0096O eyeglasses come with authentic Puma packaging, including a protective case and cleaning cloth. As genuine Puma eyewear, these frames are covered by the manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Designer Optics also offers free shipping and easy returns.

Puma PU0096O vs PU0074O: Which Active/Fundamentals Frame Is Right for You?

Both the Puma PU0096O and PU0074O belong to the brand's Active/Fundamentals collection, offering sporty rectangular acetate frames designed for men with active lifestyles. Here's how they compare:

Design & Style: The PU0096O stands out with its two-tone design, featuring acetate front frames with contrasting ruthenium metal temples that create a modern, athletic look. The PU0074O takes a more uniform approach with all-acetate construction throughout. If you prefer visual contrast and a bit more sophistication, the PU0096O's metal temple accents give it an edge. For a classic, monochromatic look, the PU0074O delivers.

Fit & Sizing: The PU0096O is available in one size (56-17-140), making it straightforward if you know this size works for you. The PU0074O offers both 54mm and 56mm lens widths, giving you more flexibility if you're between sizes or prefer a slightly smaller frame. The PU0074O also has longer temples (145mm vs 140mm), which can be beneficial for those with larger heads or who prefer more temple coverage.

Color Options: The PU0074O offers four color choices (Black, Blue, Green, and Grey) compared to the PU0096O's three (Blue/Ruthenium, Black/Ruthenium, Grey/Ruthenium). However, all PU0096O colors feature the distinctive ruthenium temple accents.

Our Recommendation: Choose the PU0096O if you want a more refined, two-tone look with metal accents that add visual interest and a slightly dressier feel. It's the better choice for those who wear their glasses in both athletic and professional settings. Opt for the PU0074O if you prefer a pure acetate frame, need size flexibility, or want more color variety without metal accents.
