FAQs
Are these frames suitable for all face shapes?
The classic browline style is generally flattering for a wide range of face shapes. However, the best fit depends on individual facial features and proportions. We recommend consulting an optician for personalized advice.
What type of lenses can be fitted?
These frames are designed for prescription lenses. Your optician will be able to fit standard single vision, bifocal, or progressive lenses, depending on your needs and the frame's capabilities.
How do I clean the frames?
Clean the lenses with a microfiber cloth and lens solution. Wipe the metal frame with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Do the frames come with non-prescription lenses?
Yes, they come with demo lenses, which are intended to be replaced by your optician with your prescription lenses.
What is the benefit of spring hinges?
Spring hinges allow the temples to flex outwards, providing a more comfortable fit, reducing pressure on your head, and increasing the durability of the frames by minimizing stress on the hinges.
What material are the frames made of?
The frames are crafted from durable metal.
Troubleshooting
Frames feel loose or wobbly
Visit an optician to have the screws tightened and the frames adjusted for a secure fit.
Skin irritation from frame contact
Ensure the frames are clean. If irritation persists, consult your optician as it may be due to material sensitivity or frame fit. Hypoallergenic nose pads can sometimes be added.
Difficulty fitting prescription lenses
Confirm with your optician that the chosen lenses are compatible with the frame's dimensions and material. Ensure the optician is aware of the spring hinge mechanism.
