FAQs
What is the main benefit of polarized lenses?
Polarized lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces, improving vision clarity and reducing eye fatigue, especially in bright conditions.
Are these sunglasses suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the polarized lenses and comfortable fit are designed for extended wear in sunny conditions. However, they are Category 3 and may be too dark for very low light environments.
What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?
A Category 3 filter indicates that the lenses are dark and absorb between 82% and 92% of sunlight, making them suitable for strong sunlight and outdoor activities.
What materials are the frame and lenses made of?
The frame is made of metal and TR90. The lenses are made of polarized bio tac material, specifically TR18 with Eastman seal for high optical quality and resistance.
Do these sunglasses offer full UV protection?

What comes in the box?
The box includes the sunglasses, a microfiber cover for protection and cleaning, and a presentation box.
Can the frame be adjusted for a tighter fit?
Minor adjustments can be made by gently bending the temple arms. For significant adjustments, it's best to seek assistance from an optical professional to avoid damage.
