How to change the lenses of sunglasses?

Most of our customers are looking to renew their glasses without having to buy new ones. For this reason, our flagship product is the original spare parts for signature sunglasses . And we are going to tell you how to change the lenses of signature sunglasses, so that you can do it yourself at home.

The firm par excellence in sunglasses, and as a consequence in spare parts, is undoubtedly Ray Ban. But we have parts from all the major firms. There are two large groups of frames, based on their ways of changing the lenses, and those two methods are the ones we are going to detail.

Change the lenses of metal glasses:

An example of the most used metal glasses are the Aviator, the Round Metal or the Hexagonal. All these models are changed in a very simple way, with a small screwdriver. You only have to remove the small screws that join the frame to the rods, and that's it. The lens fits between the frame ring.

Change the lenses of some horn-rimmed glasses:

And if the change in metal ones seemed easy to you, when it comes to horn-rimmed glasses, it is much more so!

The crystals go in and out by pressure, simply. Fit your lens to the frame's rim, and slowly press down until it fits snugly.

IMPORTANT! We recommend washing the lenses with water, regardless of the frame, before changing the glass. In this way, we will prevent them from being scratched during handling.
