FAQs

What material is the Oakley Rafter frame made from?

The frame is constructed from O-Matter™, a lightweight and durable material developed by Oakley.

Can I get prescription lenses for the Oakley Rafter?

Yes, the Oakley Rafter is available with Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses, which are laser etched with the ellipse logo for authenticity.

How does the Three-Point Fit system work?

The Three-Point Fit system ensures that the frame only makes contact at the bridge of the nose and behind the temples, maximizing comfort and keeping the lenses in precise optical alignment.

What is the main benefit of the O-Matter™ frame material?

O-Matter™ provides a lightweight yet strong frame, contributing to all-day comfort and durability.

Is this model suitable for all face shapes?

The Rafter features a bold, rectangular evolution of the Plank series. While designed for a modern look, its suitability may vary depending on individual face shape.

How should I clean the lenses?

Use a clean microfiber cloth. For tougher spots, a lens cleaning solution approved for coated lenses can be used with the cloth. Avoid abrasive materials.

What does 'full-rim' mean?

Full-rim indicates that the frame completely surrounds the lens, providing a classic and sturdy appearance.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel too tight or loose.

The Three-Point Fit is designed for precision. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made at the temples. For significant adjustments or if the fit is uncomfortable, consult an authorized Oakley dealer or optician.

Lenses are smudged or dirty.

Gently clean the lenses with a microfiber cloth. For persistent smudges, use a lens cleaning solution recommended for coated lenses and a clean microfiber cloth.

Frame feels unbalanced.

Ensure the glasses are sitting correctly on your nose and ears. The Three-Point Fit means the frame should only make contact at specific points; an optician can help ensure proper alignment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Oakley Rafter OX8178 - Blue comes pre-assembled and ready for use. If ordering with prescription lenses, they will be fitted by an optician. Ensure the frames rest comfortably on your face, making minor adjustments if necessary using the provided hinge mechanism (consult an optician for significant adjustments).

Care: To maintain your Oakley Rafter frames:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Use the provided microfiber cloth or a clean, lint-free cloth. For tougher smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid using paper towels or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch the lenses.
  2. Cleaning Frame: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the frame in water.
  3. Storage: When not in use, store your glasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage.
