Telesto
The Akoni // Telesto takes its name from one of Saturn's moons, a fitting designation for a frame where cosmic exploration and modern sophistication converge. A full titanium rim construction gives the silhouette a clean, defined presence, while knurled temples and contrasting finishes on the hinges and branded tips introduce refined tactile and visual accents. A precision threaded tube screw system and ceramic nose pads on beta-titanium arms speak to the engineering beneath the surface. Akoni sunglasses of quiet intensity, made in Japan. Includes Akoni box, case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.

Pupil Distance
One last step before checkout
Pupil distance (PD) is the distance in millimeters between the centers of your pupils. It's used to align the optical center of your lenses with your eyes. Most adults have a PD between 54–74 mm. You can find it on your prescription or ask your eye doctor.
Measure Your PD
We recommend using the EyeMeasure app for accurate results
Use your iPhone's TrueDepth camera to measure your pupil distance in seconds. It's the same technology used by opticians.
