What comes with the sunglasses?

Are these sunglasses polarized?
The product description indicates a 'Solid' lens appearance and does not mention polarization. They provide 100% UV protection but are not specified as polarized.
How should I clean my sunglasses?
Use the provided microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. For tougher smudges, a mild lens cleaner can be used sparingly.

Troubleshooting
Lenses are smudged or dirty
Gently clean the lenses with the provided microfiber cloth. If necessary, use a small amount of lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear.
Sunglasses feel too tight or too loose
While these sunglasses are not adjustable, minor fitting issues can sometimes be addressed by a professional optician. Avoid attempting to bend the acetate frame significantly, as it can break.
Frame or temple feels damaged
Acetate frames are durable but can be brittle. If you notice a crack or significant damage, cease use and consult the manufacturer or a professional for repair options. Do not attempt to glue broken acetate parts.
Reduced visibility in low light
These are Category 3 sunglasses, best suited for bright sunlight. For overcast or indoor conditions, it is recommended to remove the sunglasses for better visibility.
