FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for a small face?

Yes, the 52-20 sizing and the shallow lens profile are generally considered standard and flattering for many face shapes, including smaller ones.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

Yes, these frames are designed to be compatible with prescription lenses. Please consult an authorized optician to ensure compatibility with your specific prescription.

Why are these lenses heavier than other sunglasses?

These sunglasses use mineral glass lenses, which are denser and heavier than standard plastic or polycarbonate lenses but offer superior scratch resistance and clarity.

Does the frame include a warranty?

The product includes a certificate of authenticity. Please refer to the documentation included in the packaging for specific manufacturer warranty coverage.

How do I ensure the fit is universal?

The sunglasses are equipped with universal fit nosepads designed to sit comfortably on various nose bridges, making them highly adaptable for different wearers.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel slightly loose or crooked.

Visit a local optician to have the hinges and temple tips adjusted professionally for your specific face shape.

Visible smudges or oil on the lenses.

Use the provided microfiber cleaning cloth. For stubborn residue, use a drop of mild, pH-neutral dish soap and warm water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Loose screws on the temples.

Use a precision jeweler's screwdriver to gently tighten the screws, being careful not to over-tighten as this can damage the acetate frame.

  • Anti-reflective coating improves visual comfort in bright light

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Oliver Peoples 1983C features standard dimensions of 52-20 with a 145mm temple length, providing a reliable fit for most adult users. To maintain the condition of your sunglasses, always store them in the provided original case when not in use. Clean the mineral glass lenses exclusively with the included microfiber cloth to avoid microscopic surface scratches. Avoid placing the sunglasses face-down on hard surfaces. If the fit feels loose, take them to a professional optician for a frame adjustment rather than attempting to bend the acetate temples yourself.
