FAQs

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The standard RL8206U model features brown gradient lenses without polarization.

Can I have prescription lenses put into these frames?

In most cases, yes. Consult your local optician to confirm that your specific prescription can be fitted to the RL8206U butterfly frame.

What face shape do these sunglasses suit best?

The butterfly frame is generally very flattering on oval, heart, and square face shapes due to its rounded corners and sweeping silhouette.

Are the lenses glass or plastic?

These sunglasses use high-quality optical grade materials that are impact-resistant and lightweight.

How do I ensure these are authentic?

Ensure you purchase from authorized Ralph Lauren retailers and check for the correct MPN (RL8206U) and brand engravings on the interior of the temple arm.

Troubleshooting

Lenses have smudges or oil residue

Clean gently with a microfiber cloth and a mild, ph-neutral lens cleaning solution.

Sunglasses feel loose or slide off the face

Take them to an optical shop to have the temple arms professionally adjusted for a tighter fit.

Visibility seems blurred

Check both sides of the lenses for fingerprints or debris and clean thoroughly with a microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Ralph Lauren sunglasses remain in top condition, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Always rinse the lenses with lukewarm water to remove dust or debris before wiping them down. Use a clean microfiber cloth to avoid scratching the surface.
  2. Storage: Keep the glasses in the provided protective case when not in use to prevent pressure damage or lens scratches.
  3. Adjustment: If the fit feels loose, visit a professional optician to have the hinges or temple arms adjusted; avoid bending the frames yourself.
  4. Chemical Avoidance: Keep the lenses away from harsh chemicals, such as hairspray, perfume, or household cleaners, which can degrade the lens coating.
