FAQs

What is Switchlock™ Technology?

Switchlock™ Technology is Oakley's system that makes changing sunglass lenses quick and hassle-free, allowing you to swap lenses to adapt to different light conditions and sports.

How do I clean my Oakley Plantaris Sunglasses?

Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. For the frames, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap is recommended. Avoid abrasive materials.

Are the lenses polarized?

The product information does not specify if these particular lenses are polarized. Polarization is often an option with Prizm™ lenses, so check the specific lens description if polarization is a requirement.

Can I buy replacement lenses for the Plantaris model?

Yes, Oakley offers replacement lenses for the Plantaris model. Ensure you purchase lenses specifically designed for this frame to guarantee a proper fit and function.

What does Prizm™ Lens Technology do?

Prizm™ is a revolutionary lens technology designed to enhance color and contrast, allowing you to see more detail in your environment. It tunes specific colors for the environment you're in.

How do I adjust the temple arms?

The temple arms feature clear silicon tips that can be adjusted slightly to enhance grip and comfort. They are designed to split into two 'frog-inspired' feet.

Is the nosecone interchangeable?

Yes, the Plantaris features a removable nosecone, allowing you to customize the look of your sunglasses to suit your mood or environment.

Troubleshooting

Lenses are difficult to change.

Ensure you are using the correct leverage point near the temple hinge and applying gentle, steady pressure. Refer to the setup instructions or Oakley's official guides for visual demonstration.

Sunglasses feel loose on the face.

Adjust the silicon tips on the temple arms for a more secure fit. Ensure the nosecone is fully attached.

Frame feels uncomfortable behind the ears.

The split temple design is intended to provide a unique fit. Experiment with minor adjustments of the silicon tips. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different Oakley model.

Vision seems distorted.

Verify that the lenses are correctly seated in the frame and that no debris is trapped between the lens and frame. Ensure you are using genuine Oakley Prizm™ lenses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Plantaris sunglasses are designed for immediate use. To change lenses, locate the small tab on the inside of the frame near the temple hinge. Gently pull the lens away from the frame at this point. Align the new lens with the frame and press it into place until it clicks securely. The nosecone can be removed by gently pulling it straight off the nose bridge.

Compatibility: The primary compatibility feature is the ability to use Oakley Prizm™ replacement lenses designed specifically for the Plantaris model. Ensure any third-party accessories are certified for Oakley eyewear to avoid damage.

Care: Clean lenses with a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or household cleaners, as they can damage lens coatings. Store sunglasses in their protective case when not in use. The frame can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
