FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

Yes, the Category 3 dark tint and mirror finish are effective at reducing glare from sunlight, making them suitable for driving in bright conditions.

What does 'TR18 lenses bearing the Eastman seal' mean?

TR18 lenses are a type of high-quality, impact-resistant material. The Eastman seal indicates they are made by Eastman, a reputable manufacturer known for optical clarity and durability, and are produced using environmentally friendly processes.

Can I wear these for sports?

The secure wraparound design and lightweight frame make them suitable for many outdoor sports where a secure fit is needed, such as running or cycling. However, they may not offer the same level of impact resistance as specialized sports eyewear.

How do I clean the mirror coating on the lenses?

Use a soft microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials or soaps, as they can damage the mirror finish. Always wipe gently in a circular motion.

What is the UV protection level?

These sunglasses offer 100% UV protection, meaning they block all harmful UVA and UVB rays.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The product description does not specify polarization, but it does mention a mirror lens appearance and Category 3 filtering for glare reduction.

What is the frame made of?

The frame is made of TR90, a lightweight and durable material known for its flexibility and resistance.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses keep slipping down the nose.

Ensure the rubber-coated nose bridge is clean and free of oils. If the issue persists, consider consulting an optician for minor adjustments or explore specialized nose pads if compatible.

Reduced visibility in low light.

These sunglasses are rated Category 3, best suited for bright sunlight. For lower light conditions, it is recommended to switch to lighter lenses or remove the sunglasses.

Scratches on the lenses.

Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with specialized lens cleaners, but significant scratches may require lens replacement. Always store sunglasses in a case to prevent scratching.

Frame feels tight or uncomfortable.

TR90 material offers slight flexibility. Try gently bending the arms outward slightly. For significant discomfort, seek professional fitting assistance.
