Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, bring these frames to a licensed optician to have your prescription lenses professionally cut and fitted. The metal frame is designed to hold standard ophthalmic lenses securely. To maintain the frames, clean them regularly using a microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could strip the black finish. When not in use, store the frames in a hard-shell case to prevent bending or impact damage.
