FAQs

Can I replace the lenses with prescription ones?

Yes, the SL 881 frame is compatible with prescription lenses. Please consult your local optician for fitting.

What is the frame size?

The lenses are 55 mm wide, the bridge is 18 mm, and the temples are 145 mm long.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The lenses are tinted to reduce glare, but please check the specific retailer SKU for confirmation if polarization is a requirement.

How do I keep the acetate frame in good condition?

Avoid exposure to extreme heat, such as leaving them on a car dashboard, which can cause the acetate to warp.

Is this model suitable for all face shapes?

The classic aviator shape is widely considered universal, but fit can vary based on individual facial features.

Troubleshooting

The sunglasses feel loose on the face

Visit a professional optician to have the temple arms adjusted for a secure, custom fit.

Smudges or debris on the lenses

Gently clean with a microfiber lens cloth and authorized lens cleaner; avoid using paper towels or tissues which can scratch lenses.

Hinge feels stiff

Ensure no dust or debris is trapped in the metal hinge; if it persists, have a professional apply appropriate eyewear lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Saint Laurent SL 881 sunglasses last, always store them in a protective case when not in use. Clean the lenses using only a microfiber cloth and a gentle lens cleaning solution to avoid micro-scratches. Avoid placing the sunglasses face-down on hard surfaces to prevent lens abrasion. If you require prescription lenses, consult with an authorized optician, as the frame's architecture is specifically designed to accommodate standard lens mounting techniques. For adjustments to the temple fit or hinge tension, it is recommended to visit a professional eyewear boutique to avoid damaging the delicate metal hinge components.
