FAQs

What is Prizm™ Lens Technology?

Prizm™ is a lens technology from Oakley designed to enhance color and contrast, allowing you to see more detail in a variety of light conditions. It fine-tunes specific wavelengths of color to make your environment more vibrant and clear.

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

Yes, the Sutro Lite is designed with sports in mind. Its secure fit, enhanced vision, and protective wrap-around design make it ideal for cycling, running, and other outdoor activities.

How do I clean the lenses without damaging them?

Always use a clean microfiber cloth. For tougher smudges, use a lens-specific cleaning solution. Avoid paper towels or clothing, which can scratch the lenses.

What is the difference between Sutro and Sutro Lite?

The Sutro Lite is a semi-rimless version of the original Sutro, offering an expanded field of view and a lighter feel. The original Sutro has a full-rim design.

Can I replace the lenses on the Sutro Lite?

Yes, the Sutro Lite features interchangeable lenses, allowing you to swap them out for different conditions or if your original lenses become damaged. Specific lens kits are available separately.

What does 'Matte Jade Fade' refer to?

This refers to the color and finish of the sunglasses frame. 'Matte' indicates a non-glossy finish, while 'Jade Fade' describes a gradient color scheme, likely transitioning between shades of green.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The product description does not explicitly state polarization. However, many Oakley Prizm™ lenses are available in polarized versions. Check the specific product model or packaging for polarization details.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose.

Ensure the Unobtainium™ nose pads are clean and dry. If the issue persists, consider purchasing replacement nose pads of a different size or shape from an authorized Oakley dealer for a custom fit.

Vision is blurry or colors seem distorted.

Clean the lenses thoroughly with a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaner. Ensure you are using the correct Prizm™ lens type for the current lighting conditions. If distortion persists, contact customer support.

Frame feels too tight or uncomfortable.

While the frame is designed to be snug, excessive tightness may indicate an improper fit. For minor adjustments, gently bend the temples. For significant discomfort, consult an authorized Oakley retailer for professional fitting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sunglasses require no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit on your face.

Compatibility: The Sutro Lite is designed for adult use and is generally compatible with most head shapes due to its flexible frame and adjustable nose pads. The Prizm™ lenses are optimized for specific light conditions, with variants available for different environments (e.g., road, trail, low light).

Care:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid abrasive materials or household cleaners, as they can damage lens coatings.
  2. Frame Care: Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly with a microfiber cloth.
  3. Storage: Store the sunglasses in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
