FAQs
Can these frames hold high-index prescription lenses?
Yes, the full-rim construction is designed to securely hold a wide variety of lens types, including high-index options.
Are these glasses suitable for wide faces?
With a 55mm lens width and 145mm temple length, these frames are designed to accommodate a medium-to-large fit, but comfort varies by individual facial anatomy.
What is the material of the frames?
The frames are constructed from high-quality, lightweight materials selected for long-term durability and comfort.
Can I put my own nose pads on these?
These frames feature a fixed bridge design; they are not compatible with stick-on or screw-in nose pads.
Does the case protect against crushing?
The branded case is designed to provide standard protection against scratches and surface damage, but should not be subjected to heavy crushing forces.
Troubleshooting
Frames feel loose on the face
Take the frames to an optician; they can perform a 'temple adjustment' to ensure the spring hinges and temple tips grip correctly.
Surface smudges or fogging
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or tissues, which can contain wood fibers that leave micro-scratches.
Spring hinges feel stiff
Ensure no debris or dirt is lodged in the hinge mechanism; a professional cleaning may be required if they remain stiff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your frames, visit a licensed optician to have your specific prescription lenses installed, as the included demo lenses are not intended for vision correction. For daily maintenance, clean the lenses and frames using a microfiber cloth and a dedicated optical spray to avoid scratching the surface. When not in use, always store the glasses in the provided branded case to protect them from environmental dust and accidental drops. Avoid leaving the frames in high-heat areas, such as a hot car dashboard, as extreme heat can compromise the structural integrity of the frame materials over time.
