Prescription Sunglasses

For many of the sunglasses we sell we can fit prescription sunglass lenses to the frame but to special order - this can include polarised lenses and a variety of lens colours not just grey or brown. The starting point is to choose a model and then call or email us and we can advise if prescription lenses can be fitted to it - it's usually dependent on the frame shape and style. If we are able to do this we will need to have a copy of your prescription. If you don't have your prescription your optician should make it available to you but there may be a charge. Alternatively, you will need to go to your local optician and have your eyes tested. Following the eye test, your optician should make a copy of your prescription available and you are not obliged to purchase your sunglasses from them. Please ask your optician to include your PD (pupillary distance) measurement in your prescription.

Another very good option and often the most straight forward is to choose a model with optical inserts (these clip behind the frame of the sunglasses). We sell several interchangeable models that come with an optical insert so you also get the benefit of different coloured lenses. In this instance all you need do is take the optical insert to your usual opticians and have prescription lenses put in the insert. We can also provide this service in conjunction with our partner optician. Please click on the left hand link - Prescription Options - to see our current models with optical inserts.
