Tart Optical Enterprises, Inc. was founded in New York City in 1948 by Julius Tart, an expert optician and renowned craftsman of iconic optical frames. Over the years, his frames have always reflected the fashion demands of the high-end optical market while maintaining the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Featured in numerous films, unique frames such as the TART® and ARNEL® have been worn by Hollywood’s most famous stars.
Frames come in a variety of sizes. If you look inside your frame, you will likely see two or three numbers listed.
The first number (usually between 48 and 58) is the width of the lens. The second number (usually between 15 and 25) is the width of the bridge, or the distance between the lenses. The higher the number, the greater the distance. The last number (usually between 135 and 150) is the length of the temples. If you have noticed that the temples do not rest well when trying on glasses, you should look for glasses with a temple length of at least 145 mm.
