FAQs

What is the main benefit of polarized lenses?

Polarized lenses significantly reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and roads, improving visual clarity and reducing eye strain.

Are these sunglasses suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, with 100% UV protection and glare reduction, they are designed for comfortable all-day wear in sunny conditions.

What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?

A Category 3 filter means the lenses are dark and absorb 82-92% of sunlight, making them suitable for bright outdoor light conditions.

What materials are the frames made of?

The frames are constructed from a combination of metal (stainless steel for the bridge) and TR90, a durable and lightweight plastic.

What is included with the purchase?

The sunglasses come with a microfiber cover for cleaning and protection, and a dedicated box for storage.

Can I wear these sunglasses indoors?

Due to their Category 3 filter, they are not recommended for indoor use as they may be too dark.

How do I clean the mirror finish on the lenses?

Clean the mirror finish gently with the provided microfiber cloth. For tougher dirt, use a lens-cleaning solution recommended for coated lenses and the microfiber cloth.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear too dark for current conditions.

These sunglasses feature a Category 3 filter, optimized for bright sunlight. For overcast or lower light conditions, consider using sunglasses with a lower filter category or removing them if indoors.

Frames feel slightly loose or tight.

Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by a professional optician. Avoid attempting to bend the frame excessively yourself, as this can cause damage.

Smudges or fingerprints on lenses.

Gently wipe the lenses with the provided microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a lens-cleaning solution specifically designed for coated lenses.
