Claiming on your health insurance (NZ & Australia)
Got optical cover? Your prescription glasses may be claimable. Every prescription order comes with an itemised tax receipt - just submit it to your insurer or health fund to claim your rebate.
Prescription glasses and prescription sunglasses are usually claimable (policy dependent); non-prescription styles like blue light and standard sunnies generally aren't. Cover, limits, and waiting periods vary by plan, so check the details of your own policy.
Description
Why settle for plain when you can have a little sparkle? The Piper Shimmer is the cat-eye with a wink. Oversized, made to your prescription, and finished in a glitter acetate that catches the light just right. Proof that everyday glasses don't have to be boring.
Most glitter frames feel novelty. The Piper Shimmer isn't most glasses. The shimmer is embedded in the acetate itself, not a coating or a print, which means it lasts and it reads as premium rather than plastic. The oversized cat-eye shape grounds the sparkle in something grown-up and wearable, so you can bring a little shine to everyday outfits without feeling dressed up. Perfect for anyone who thinks accessories should have a bit of personality.
Designed in New Zealand. Built to last. Worn everywhere, from the morning commute to the evening wind-down.
Why you'll love the Piper Shimmer prescription glasses:
- Oversized cat-eye silhouette
- Made up with your prescription - single vision (reading or distance) or progressive, ready for everyday wear
- Premium acetate frames, a plant-based material derived from tree pulp and cotton, and a sustainable alternative to plastic
- Designed in New Zealand by a small, women-led team
If you love the look but want a different colour, the Piper family also comes in Purple, Black and Tort.
Also available as polarised sunglasses.
Free NZ shipping over $100. Because they're made to order, prescription purchases are final.
