FAQs
Are these sunglasses truly unisex?
Yes, the Original Wayfarer design is a classic style that suits both men and women.
How do I know which size to choose?
Consider the lens width, bridge width, and temple length measurements. It's often recommended to try them on in person or refer to Ray-Ban's sizing guide if available.
Can I wear these while looking at my phone screen?
Polarized lenses can sometimes make digital screens appear darker or create a rainbow effect. You may need to adjust the angle of your device or the sunglasses to see clearly.
What does 'prescription ready' mean?
It means the frame is designed to accommodate prescription lenses, which can be fitted by an optician at your local eyewear store.
How effective are the polarized lenses?
They are highly effective at reducing glare from reflective surfaces, improving visual clarity and reducing eye strain in bright conditions.
What is the difference between these and New Wayfarers?
The Original Wayfarer typically has a slightly larger frame, a flatter lens profile, and a more pronounced brow line compared to the New Wayfarer, which often features a slightly smaller, more rounded shape.
What is included with the purchase?
The sunglasses come with a protective case and a lens cleaning cloth.
Troubleshooting
Sunglasses feel too tight or too loose.
While these sunglasses are not designed for user adjustment, trying different sizes or consulting an optician for minor adjustments might help achieve a better fit.
Lenses appear distorted or have streaks.
Ensure lenses are clean. Use a dedicated lens cleaner or a damp, soft cloth. If the issue persists, it might indicate a manufacturing defect; contact customer support.
Frames feel weak or damaged.
Inspect hinges and frame arms. If damage is present, professional repair may be necessary. Avoid bending or applying excessive force to the frames.
