FAQs

What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?

A Category 3 filter means the lenses are dark and suitable for strong sunlight. They block between 82% and 92% of visible light, providing protection against glare and intense brightness outdoors.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The 'One Ls Raw - Black Dark' model is not specified as polarized. While it offers 100% UV protection, it does not include polarization to reduce reflected glare from surfaces like water or roads.

What material are the lenses made of?

The lenses are made from TR18 material, which is known for its excellent optical quality, durability, and environmentally-friendly properties. They carry the Eastman seal.

What is the frame material?

The frame is made from TR90, a lightweight and highly resistant nylon-based material.

Can these sunglasses be used for sports?

Yes, their lightweight and durable design makes them suitable for casual sports and outdoor activities in sunny conditions. However, for high-impact sports, specialized sports eyewear might be more appropriate.

How should I clean my sunglasses?

Always use a soft microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. If necessary, rinse the sunglasses under cool water and gently dry them with the microfiber cloth. Avoid using soaps or household cleaners.

Are these suitable for children?

These sunglasses are designed as a unisex model for adults. They may not be the correct size or fit for children.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear too dark indoors or in low light.

These sunglasses feature a Category 3 filter, designed for bright sunlight. For indoor or low-light conditions, it is recommended to use a different pair of sunglasses with a lighter filter or no tint.

Frame feels loose or tight.

If the frame feels loose, ensure the screws on the hinges are not overtightened. For a tighter fit, minor adjustments can sometimes be made by a professional optician. Avoid forceful bending of the frame.

Scratches on lenses.

Minor surface scratches may be present due to improper cleaning or storage. Always use a microfiber cloth and store in a case. Deep scratches cannot be repaired and may require lens replacement if available.
