Product Information

Full details

The Akila Apollo Sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a versatile, unisex accessory that combines a bold, chunky aesthetic with long-term durability. These glasses excel as an everyday staple that pairs effortlessly with both casual weekend wear and structured professional attire. While the substantial frame offers a striking silhouette and robust build, potential users should note that the chunky design may feel heavier on the nose bridge compared to ultra-lightweight performance eyewear.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for people with sensitive skin?

The frames are made from high-quality nylon, which is generally hypoallergenic and well-tolerated for daily use.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

While the frames are durable, we recommend checking with your local optometrist to ensure your specific prescription can be fitted to this frame type.

Are the lenses polarized?

The Akila Apollo series focuses on aesthetic and durability; please check the specific product batch details for lens optical specifications.

How do I store the glasses properly?

Always keep them in the provided original case to prevent scratches and hinge damage.

Are these frames lightweight?

They feature a 'chunky' design, which provides a substantial, sturdy feel rather than an ultra-lightweight profile.

Can I wear these for sports?

While durable, these are fashion-focused sunglasses and are not recommended for high-intensity athletic activities where a secure sport-fit is required.

Troubleshooting

Smudges or oil streaks on the lenses

Use a dedicated lens cleaner and a clean microfiber cloth to gently wipe the lenses in a circular motion.

Frames feel loose on the face

Take the frames to a local optical shop to have the hinges tightened by a professional.

Frame feels stiff or uncomfortable

Ensure the frames are properly aligned and not catching on hair; if discomfort persists, consult an optician for a professional fitting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Akila Apollo sunglasses remain in peak condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a microfiber cloth to wipe the lenses to avoid scratching the surface. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and lukewarm water, then pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
  2. Storage: Always store the glasses inside the provided original case when not being worn to prevent structural damage or lens scratching.
  3. Adjustment: If the frames feel too loose or tight, visit a professional optician to adjust the hinges, as manual bending may compromise the nylon material.
  4. Maintenance: Avoid leaving the sunglasses in extreme heat, such as on a car dashboard in direct sunlight, as high temperatures can warp the nylon frame over time.
