FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

Yes, the polarized lenses significantly reduce glare from the road and other surfaces, making them excellent for driving.

What material are the frames made of?

The frames are made of durable and stylish acetate.

How should I clean the lenses?

Gently wipe the lenses with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

Do these sunglasses come with a case?

Yes, they come with the original Prada case for protection.

Can I wear these with a digital screen in my car?

Polarized lenses can sometimes interfere with the visibility of digital screens. You may need to tilt your head or remove the sunglasses to see screens clearly.

What does 'polarized' mean for the lenses?

Polarized lenses have a special filter that blocks intense reflected light (glare), improving clarity and reducing eye strain in bright conditions.

Is the cat-eye style suitable for all face shapes?

The cat-eye silhouette is a bold style that tends to flatter oval, square, and heart-shaped faces. However, personal preference and fit are key.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or tight on the face.

Adjustments can sometimes be made by a professional optician. For minor tightness, gently flexing the arms might help. For looseness, professional adjustment is recommended to avoid damaging the frame.

Polarized lenses make screens difficult to see.

This is a common characteristic of polarized lenses. Try tilting your head slightly to find a viewing angle where the screen is visible, or consider removing the sunglasses when using such devices.

Frame appears dull or smudged.

Clean the frame gently with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure the cloth is lint-free. For stubborn smudges on the frame, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Lenses are scratched.

Minor surface scratches may be inherent with use. For significant scratches that impair vision, lens replacement by a professional is recommended. Proper care and storage can prevent future scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sunglasses require no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: The unisex design is compatible with most adult face shapes. The polarized lenses may affect visibility on certain digital screens (e.g., smartphone displays, car dashboards) where glare reduction can cause the screen to appear darker or distorted.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Gently wipe the lenses with the included microfiber cloth or another soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials, paper towels, or rough fabrics, as they can scratch the lenses.
  2. Frame Care: Clean the acetate frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid exposure to high heat or prolonged contact with solvents, cosmetics, or perfumes, which can damage the acetate.
  3. Storage: Store the sunglasses in their original Prada case when not in use to protect them from scratches, dust, and damage.
  4. Avoid Placing Lenses Down: Never place the sunglasses lens-side down on surfaces to prevent scratches.
