Full details

The Chanel CH5566 sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a sophisticated, timeless accessory that blends high-fashion aesthetics with reliable everyday eye protection. Featuring a classic rectangular silhouette and the iconic gold interlocking CC logo, these sunglasses offer a refined look suitable for both casual and formal settings. While they provide excellent glare reduction and UV protection, potential users should note that the acetate frame, while durable, requires careful handling to maintain its polished finish over time.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of the CH5566?

The glasses feature a 54mm lens width, a 17mm bridge width, and 140mm temple length.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The CH5566 series offers glare reduction and UV protection, though you should check the specific lens markings on your unit to confirm polarization.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

In most cases, acetate frames like the CH5566 can accommodate prescription lenses. We recommend visiting your local optician to verify compatibility with your specific prescription.

How should I store my Chanel sunglasses?

Always store them in the included branded storage case when not in use to prevent damage and dust accumulation.

Is the CC logo made of real gold?

The interlocking CC logo features a gold-toned finish for a signature aesthetic, not solid gold.

Can I wear these in the ocean?

It is not recommended. Saltwater can damage the frame finish and degrade the lens coatings. If they are exposed to saltwater, rinse immediately with fresh water and dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

The frames feel loose on the face.

Take the sunglasses to a professional optician for a frame adjustment to ensure the temples sit correctly.

Lenses have persistent smudges or oil residue.

Use a specialized lens cleaning solution or a drop of mild dish soap with warm water, then dry gently with a clean microfiber cloth.

Small scratches appear on the acetate frame.

For light surface scratches, a professional eyewear polishing compound may be used, though professional buffing is recommended to maintain the high-gloss finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These sunglasses are ready to wear straight out of the box with no complex setup required. To ensure a comfortable fit, the 140mm temple length allows for a secure grip behind the ears. Compatibility is universal due to the standard 17mm bridge width. Care instructions are simple: always use the provided storage case when not in use to prevent scratching. Clean the lenses using a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth and mild lens cleaner. Avoid using paper towels or abrasive fabrics, as these can create microscopic scratches on the lenses or the frame finish. If you find the fit becomes loose, consult an authorized optician to safely adjust the frame tension.
