How to Order Prescription Lenses
Shape History
The MTO offers a classic, understated look for men and women: it is based on the P3, a round frame shape designed for U.S. soldiers during WWII and worn by 1950s Hollywood movie stars like Grace Kelly and James Dean.

Buying sunglasses online can feel risky.
But it doesn't have to be.
We want to help you make an informed decision, so here are 3 common reasons some customers (about 1 in 20) return their Rockets:
1. "The shape doesn't suit me."
For our first 6 years, we focused on only one shape: the MTO.
Named after our Mum, it's a classic, round frame based on the P3.
It suits most faces but not all.
So we designed the SPT — a rectangular frame based on the iconic wayfarer.
The SPT, we say with confidence, flatters all face shapes.
Check it out!
2. "It's too big (or small)."
Most customers like our Original (143 mm wide) frame size.
It offers a slightly oversized look for medium to medium-large heads.
If you need smaller frames, try Tailored (136 mm wide) or Small (132 mm wide).
Unsure about your size?
Use a ruler to measure the width of your current favourite glasses or sunglasses.
Pro tip: most customers like their sunglasses a little oversized.
3. "They sit on my cheeks."
If you have high cheekbones relative to your nose bridge, choose Raised "Asian" Fit.
It features 12-mm nose pads that position the frames higher on your face and away from your cheeks.
We review every order, and if we think there may be a better fit or size for you, we will check with you before shipping.
If you have any questions, please email us help@rocketeyewear.com.
We're here to help!
Your Rockets should feel snug.
If they're too loose or too tight, you can adjust them by bending the temple arms, which are thin and malleable.
Don't worry — you're not going to break them.
If they're too loose
Bend the arms inward and tips downward so that they grip the back of your ears.
If they're too tight
Bend the arms outward and tips upward for more space between the frames and your face.
You can see a video on how to adjust your Rockets here.
P.S. If you have any questions about how to adjust your Rockets, email us at help@rocketeyewear.com any time! We adjust every pair of Rockets by hand before shipping and would be happy to show you how to do it too!

I’ve been looking for a pair of sunnies that perfectly suits my face shape. I’ve tried popular brands but none of them look quite right on me.
Until I put on Rocket Eyewear! The frame width, lens shape and color look so good on me. I feel like a celebrity wearing tailored sunnies!
I would give more than 5 stars if possible. Thanks Ming! Thanks Rocket Eyewear!
Légères, agréables à porter. Parfaites
I usually need to wear frames with nose pads, and that’s fine. But limited my options. Rocket’s got a nice library of styles to choose from that actually fit my low bridged nose and kissable cheeks. Looking forward to my second pair.
So incredibly happy with my second pair of Rocket sunnies in about as many weeks. This time tried the “original” sized frames which I think I prefer to the “tailored” size which work too! Resisting the urge to buy more colours …. thank you Ming!
Hope non-polarized lenses are offered in future. Need non-polarized lenses to see the “heads-up display” when driving. Also need non-polarized lenses for golfing. (All golf-specific sunglasses are non-polarized).
Customer service reached out to confirm the sizes and was super responsive!
Lovely glasses (3rd pair im buying as gifts)
Thank you for that personal touch of asking about the asian or standard fit measurement. So appreciate it. This is my 3rd pair of Rocket eyeglasses. Love it. The rose gold eyeglass is perfect.
These sunglasses are amazing, so clear and comfortable. The fit is perfect. The service was outstanding. The shipment arrived safely only a couple of days after I left placed the order.
Thank you.
I finally found something comfortable enough to wear for long periods. It was so easy tp adjust the frames. More importantly, it doesnt slip off my nose. I love the colour and mirrorred lenses.
Great glasses! I have both their sunglasses and regular ones. Excellent customer service and fast shipping even though I am on the opposite side of the globe!
Ordered these having seen them in Insta and being interested in the Asian fit angle. Build quality is excellent, customer service excellent, product is exactly as described.
The MTO prescription I ordered feel a little heavier than my RB5387. If they were lighter I’d give an extra star. Nonetheless, I still recommend!
Perfect fit for people with Asian facial features!
I have almost no nose bridge so most sunglasses just kinda slip down my face and sit on my cheeks. I'm constantly doing the nose bridge push. I just got my Rocket sunglasses and MAN OH MAN do they FIT WELL! I put them on right out of the box and shook my head all around and up and down and THEY DID NOT SLIP AT ALL! I am so glad they worked out! I was concerned about spending that much $$ for sunglasses, since I'm a Senior on a limited income. I sure wish these were around when I was younger. I wouldn't have had to waste all that other money in sunglasses that didn't fit.
This was my third time of purchase. Even I have been moved from Asia to North America, I still order from them. I like their Asian-fit and the excellent quality, as well as their sincere service & support. I would definitely recommend my friends & family.
Great product & price point
Finally, no cheek marks! Stays put even while jogging. Love the mom-glasses style. Eyes feel "rested" when wearing these. I finally found a pair of sunglasses that I really love.
Thank you!
My second pair after getting them in the Rose-Tinted Crystal! They continue to look great, never budge from my face, and generally effectively sunglasses in addition during commutes with significant outdoor walking. I've received compliments on them as well. I will definitely be recommending them to others!
these are really great sunglasses. I'm Korean, living in America, where most glasses don't fit me. I saw this ad for these, and was cautiously optimistic. I got them in the mail today and they fit so well! comfortable, and they don't slip down my nose. I will be back to buy more!
The quality of the sunglasses is great & staff who helped me at the shop was patient and warm. They made sure that the glasses fits me perfectly before i leave. The fit is great! Thumbs up!
Fits perfectly on my asian face 😂
The sunglasses really deliver on their promise. Probably one of the best fit I’ve ever had and they look stylish too!
Rocket MTO P3 Classic Smoke Crystal & Ghost Glasses (Crystal Strikes Back)
Really happy with my purchase! The sunnies look great and the clear sizing information made it really simple and easy to choose the right fit. I also couldn’t believe how quickly they arrived. Very happy with my purchase!
The design is really nice and the sunglasses fit perfectly with my tiny head and my Asian nose. Thanks to the nose widgets (sorry I am French, dunno the correct word) the sunglasses don’t fell from the nose.
Those will be my sunglasses model forever now! 👍✌️👌
Thanks you guys for the design.
A well-made, well-designed pair of sunglasses.
Just got my fourth and fifth pair. Wish y’all had more mirrored lenses options! (I have the black frame with blue mirror, clear with pink)
It’s reassuring knowing the frame will fit nicely every single time.
Fit great, looks nice
Thank you so much this is the first time I have a pair of sunglasses polarized that the nose actually fit my low nose bridge really grateful! Will get more woth progressive prescription for eyeglasses
Very pleased with the quality and fit of these sunglasses. Glad I ordered Asian fit to suit my features.
Fits perfectly! The people here help with sizing! Been getting lots of compliments!!
