🔍 Lenses & Technology
1. What are polarized sunglasses, and why should I use them?
Polarized sunglasses are designed to reduce glare from reflective
surfaces like water, snow, and roads. They work by filtering
horizontal light waves that cause glare, resulting in sharper,
more comfortable vision. They are particularly beneficial for
driving, fishing, skiing, and any outdoor activity where glare
is a concern.
2. What does 100% UV protection mean?
100% UV protection means the lenses block both UVA and UVB rays
completely. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause serious eye
conditions such as cataracts and macular degeneration. Always
look for sunglasses labeled UV400 or 100% UV protection to ensure
your eyes are fully protected.
3. What is the difference between polarized and mirrored lenses?
Polarized lenses reduce glare by filtering light, while mirrored
lenses have a reflective coating on the outside that reduces the
amount of light entering the eye. Mirrored lenses are great for
very bright conditions, while polarized lenses offer better
visual clarity. Some sunglasses combine both features.
4. Are darker lenses better for UV protection?
No — lens darkness has nothing to do with UV protection. A light
tinted lens with proper UV coating protects your eyes just as
well as a dark lens. Always check the UV protection rating rather
than relying on the color of the lens.
🕶️ Choosing the Right Sunglasses
5. How do I choose the right sunglasses for my face shape?
The key is to find frames that contrast your face shape.
For example, round faces look great with angular frames,
while square faces suit rounded or oval frames. Oval faces
are the most versatile and suit almost any frame shape.

for detailed advice.
6. How do I choose sunglasses for outdoor activities?
For outdoor activities, prioritize 100% UV protection,
polarized lenses, and a secure fit. Wrap-around frames offer
maximum coverage and protection from wind and debris. Lightweight
materials like nylon or TR90 are ideal for sports and active use.

7. What frame material is most durable?
Titanium and stainless steel are among the most durable frame
materials available. For lightweight durability, TR90 nylon is
an excellent choice, especially for sports. Acetate frames offer
premium aesthetics and are highly customizable in terms of color
and pattern.
🧴 Care & Maintenance
8. How do I clean my sunglasses properly?
Always use a clean microfiber cloth to wipe your lenses.
Rinse with lukewarm water first to remove dust particles that
could scratch the lenses. Avoid using paper towels, clothing,
or household cleaners as these can damage lens coatings.
For stubborn smudges, use a small drop of mild dish soap.
9. How should I store my sunglasses?
Always store your sunglasses in a hard-shell protective case
when not in use. Avoid leaving them on a car dashboard or in
direct sunlight for extended periods as heat can warp frames
and damage lens coatings. Keep them away from sharp objects
that could scratch the lenses.
10. Can scratched lenses be repaired?
Unfortunately, scratched lenses cannot be truly repaired —
products claiming to fix scratches typically only mask them
temporarily. The best solution is lens replacement. Many
reputable brands offer replacement lens services. Prevention
is always better: use a protective case and a microfiber cloth.
