FAQs
Who are these Oakley frames best suited for?
These frames are designed for adult males, particularly those with round or oval face shapes looking for a modern, structured look. They are also suitable for individuals needing prescription lenses.
Can I get prescription lenses fitted into these frames?
Yes, these optical frames are designed to accommodate both single vision and varifocal prescription lenses. You will need to visit an optician for fitting.
How do I clean the lenses and frame?
Gently clean the lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. The frame can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth and dried with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the main style benefit of the squared shape?
The squared shape provides definition and angularity, which can balance softer features common in round and oval faces, creating a more balanced and defined facial appearance.
Are these frames available in other colors?
The Oakley Socket 5.5 line includes various color options. This specific guide focuses on the grey variant (OX3218), but other colors like blue and brown may be available in the broader product range.
How should I store my glasses when not in use?
It is recommended to store your glasses in a protective case to prevent scratches on the lenses and damage to the frame.
Troubleshooting
Frames feel too tight or too loose
Consult an optician to have the frames adjusted. They can make precise adjustments to the temples and nose pads for a comfortable and secure fit.
Screws come loose
Use a small eyeglass screwdriver to gently tighten any loose screws. If you are uncomfortable doing this, take them to an optician.
Scratches on lenses
Lenses are a consumable part and can be replaced by an optician. Minor frame scratches can sometimes be buffed by a professional, but significant damage may require frame replacement.
