FAQs

What does Category 2 filter mean for these sunglasses?

A Category 2 filter offers medium-dark tinting, suitable for everyday outdoor use in average brightness. It absorbs 57-81% of sunlight, providing good protection but may not be dark enough for very intense, direct sunlight.

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

Yes, the Category 2 filter is generally suitable for driving in most daylight conditions. However, if you experience significant glare or bright conditions, consider sunglasses with a higher category filter.

What material are the lenses made of?

The lenses are made from TR18, a material known for its excellent optical quality and durability, bearing the Eastman seal. They are also environmentally-friendly.

How do I clean the gold metal frame?

Clean the frame with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dirt or smudges, and then dry it thoroughly with another soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Can these sunglasses be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the Eclipsa model is a unisex design, intended to be worn by anyone.

What is the benefit of the gradient lens appearance?

The gradient lens appearance provides a stylish aesthetic where the tint is darker at the top and fades lighter towards the bottom. This can help reduce glare from overhead light sources while allowing more light through the lower part of the lens.

How durable are the TR18 lenses?

TR18 lenses, especially those with the Eastman seal, are known for their high durability and resistance to impact and scratching compared to standard materials.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose on the face

Gently adjust the temples by slightly bending them inwards. If unsure, consult an optician for professional adjustment.

Lenses have smudges or fingerprints

Use a dedicated microfiber lens cloth to gently clean the lenses. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning spray specifically designed for eyewear.

Frame appears discolored or tarnished

Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Regular gentle cleaning will maintain the gold finish.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Gently wipe the lenses with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or household cleaners, which can damage the lens coating.
  2. Frame Care: Wipe the metal frame with a slightly damp cloth to remove smudges or fingerprints. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
  3. Storage: When not in use, store the sunglasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage.
