FAQs

What is UV 400 protection?

UV 400 protection means the lenses block all light rays with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers, including all UVA and UVB rays. This offers maximum protection for your eyes from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

While the nylon lenses offer some impact resistance, these are primarily fashion sunglasses. For intense sports activities where high impact or strenuous movement is expected, specialized sports eyewear might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the translucent acetate frames?

Gently wipe the frames with a soft, damp cloth. After cleaning, dry them thoroughly with another soft, dry cloth. Avoid using alcohol-based cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the acetate material.

What are the exact dimensions of the sunglasses?

The dimensions are: Lens width: 58mm, Bridge: 16mm, Temple length: 145mm.

Can the lenses be replaced with prescription lenses?

This depends on the optician's capabilities. Some opticians can fit prescription lenses into non-prescription frames like these, but it's best to consult with your local optometrist or eyewear specialist.

What material are the lenses made of?

The lenses are made of nylon, which is known for its lightweight properties and impact resistance.

What is the color of the lenses?

The lenses are green.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too loose or too tight

Minor adjustments to the temple arms can sometimes be made by a professional optician. For significant fit issues, consider trying on different models.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Use a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a clean microfiber cloth. Gently wipe the lenses in a circular motion. Avoid using paper towels or clothing, as they can scratch the lenses.

Frame appears dull or has lost its shine

Clean the acetate frame with a soft, damp cloth and then dry with a separate soft cloth. Avoid exposure to excessive heat or harsh chemicals.

Slight creaking sound from the hinge

A tiny amount of clear silicone lubricant specifically designed for eyewear may help, or consult an optician for professional adjustment.
