Prescription Eyeglasses

When it comes to the process of finding the perfect pair of prescription eyeglasses, there is often one thing that’s overlooked: sun protection. While many may feel that they have to sacrifice this important aspect of eye health maintenance in the interest of being able to see clearly, this isn’t quite the case.You can have both!

With prescription sunglasses, you can get the stylish sunglasses that you’ve been dreaming of without sacrificing your ability to see. This style of prescription glasses offers both UV protection and clearer vision in one, allowing you to wear your favorite fashionable shades and maintain perfect sight in any type of weather.

The Prescription Eyeglass Frames Collection

If the Sola Collection and the 1932 Collection do not offer the right pair of stylish shades with UV protection for you, we have great news: any of our amazing prescription eyeglass frames can be adapted to become the perfect pair of prescription sunglasses! Simply select your favorite frames and choose the ‘Polarized Sunglasses Lens’ option during customization. Alternatively, you can also opt for photochromic lenses, which are transitional lenses that adjust to changes in light, transforming into sunglasses when exposed to sunlight. We will provide more detailed  information about both of these options later.
