FAQs

What does 'TR18 lenses bearing the Eastman seal' mean?

TR18 lenses from Eastman are high-quality copolyester lenses known for their excellent optical clarity, impact resistance, and environmental friendliness. The Eastman seal signifies adherence to their quality standards.

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

The Category 2 filter is suitable for average daylight driving. However, conditions can vary greatly; for very bright or rapidly changing light conditions, a different lens category might be more appropriate. Always ensure your vision is not impaired while driving.

How do I clean the colorful acetate temple ends?

You can clean the acetate temple ends with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher smudges, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by thorough drying with a microfiber cloth.

What is the UV protection level?

These sunglasses provide 100% UV protection with UV400, blocking all harmful UVA and UVB rays.

Can the temple ends be replaced if damaged?

The temple ends are integrated into the design for aesthetic and comfort purposes. Replacement is not typically a standard user-serviceable feature.

What is the lens color and appearance?

The lenses are blue with a cosmetic appearance and a Category 2 filter. They absorb 57-81% of sunlight.

What accessories are included with the sunglasses?

The sunglasses come with a microfiber box and lid for protection and storage.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose.

Adjust the silicone nose pads gently for a more secure fit. If the issue persists, ensure the temple arms are not bent outwards.

Lenses appear smudged or dirty.

Clean the lenses using the provided microfiber cloth and a small amount of lens cleaning solution if necessary. Avoid touching the lenses with your fingers.

The frame feels stiff or difficult to open/close.

Check the hinge area for any debris. If clean, the 3-bar hinge is designed for durability and may require a gentle break-in period. Do not force the arms.

Poor visual clarity or tint seems uneven.

Ensure the lenses are clean. The Category 2 filter is designed for medium brightness; if the lighting conditions are significantly different, the perception of tint may vary. For extreme conditions, consider sunglasses with a different filter category.
