What material are the Prada PR C11V frames made from?

These frames are constructed from acetate, a durable and lightweight plastic material.

Lens scratches are permanent. Ensure proper cleaning and storage practices to prevent future occurrences. Consider replacement lenses if severe.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your Prada optical frames:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth (like a microfiber cloth) to gently wipe the lenses and frame. For tougher smudges, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
