FAQs
Are these glasses ready to wear out of the box?
No, these are optical frames designed to be fitted with prescription lenses by an optician. They do not come with lenses.
What face shapes are best suited for the Wayfarer II pantos style?
The pantos shape is generally versatile but is particularly recommended for oval and heart-shaped faces due to its balanced proportions.
What material are the frames made of?
The frames are made of acetate, a durable, lightweight, and versatile plastic known for its ability to hold vibrant colors.
Can I get these with non-prescription or tinted lenses?
Yes, you can have non-prescription or tinted lenses fitted by an optician, although they are primarily designed for prescription eyewear.
How do I clean the frames and lenses properly?
Use a soft microfiber cloth for lenses. Clean the acetate frames with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the warranty on Ray-Ban optical frames?
Ray-Ban typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the specific warranty information provided with your purchase or contact the retailer for details.
Can I replace the lenses myself?
It is strongly recommended to have lenses fitted by a professional optician. Attempting to replace them yourself without the proper tools and expertise can damage the frames.
Troubleshooting
Frames feel too tight or too loose.
Take the frames to a qualified optician for professional adjustment. They have the tools and expertise to reshape the acetate gently without causing damage.
Scratches on the lenses.
Lens scratches are generally permanent. If minor, you may be able to live with them, but significant scratches will require lens replacement. Consult your optician.
Frame color appears faded or discolored.
Acetate can be sensitive to prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive heat. Avoid leaving them in hot environments like a car dashboard. If discoloration is severe, it may indicate material degradation.
One arm of the frame feels weaker than the other.
Check the hinge area for any visible damage. If the hinge is intact, consult an optician for a professional assessment and potential repair or adjustment.
