FAQs

What size is this specific Oakley Airdrop™ variant?

The Oakley Airdrop™ frames come in four available sizes. Please refer to the product details or consult with a retailer to determine the specific size of this 'Brown' variant (e.g., 53mm, 55mm lens width).

Can I get these frames with non-prescription lenses?

While primarily sold as optical frames for prescription lenses, some retailers might offer them with non-prescription clear lenses. However, their main purpose is to be fitted with your specific prescription.

How do I know which of the four sizes will fit me best?

The best way to determine the correct size is to try them on. Alternatively, measure the width of your current best-fitting glasses and compare with the specifications for each Airdrop™ size.

Are these frames suitable for sports?

While durable, the Oakley Airdrop™ is primarily designed as an everyday optical frame. For high-impact sports, Oakley offers specialized performance eyewear.

What is the 'dark crystal theme' on this brown model?

The 'dark crystal theme' refers to a subtle, semi-translucent coloration within the brown frame material, adding depth and a unique visual element.

Do these frames come with a case?

Typically, Oakley frames are sold with a protective case. Please check the product listing or inquire with the retailer for confirmation.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel too tight or too loose

Visit an optician for professional adjustment. They can carefully bend the temples or adjust nose pads for a better fit.

Lenses become smudged easily

Ensure you are using a clean microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaning solution. Avoid using clothing or paper towels, which can scratch lenses.

Screws on the hinges feel loose

Carefully tighten the screws with a small eyeglass screwdriver. If unsure, consult an optician to prevent overtightening or stripping the screw.

Frames cause discomfort on the nose or ears

This indicates an improper fit. Seek professional adjustment from an optician to modify the nose pads or temple arms.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Professional Fitting: These are optical frames and require prescription lenses to be fitted by an optician. Ensure your optician has the correct measurements for your vision needs.
  2. Adjustments: Once fitted with lenses, an optician can make minor adjustments to the temples and nose pads for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility:

  • Prescription Lenses: Compatible with most standard prescription lens types, including single vision and progressive lenses. Consult your optician for specific compatibility with advanced lens technologies.
  • Face Shapes: The rectangular lens shape is generally versatile but best suits oval, round, and square face shapes. Consider trying them on to ensure a good fit.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to clean the lenses and frames regularly. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution approved for coated lenses.
  • Storage: Store the frames in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
  • Avoidance: Keep frames away from extreme heat (e.g., car dashboard) and harsh chemicals, which can damage the materials.
