Polarized Clip On sunglasses might be the solution you’ve been looking for. Wearing prescription glasses and finding a good pair of sunglasses to go with them is often a struggle. Maybe they do not fit over your current frame or you find it uncomfortable to wear two glasses simultaneously. Clip-on sunglasses are the solution to that problem: with them, you can easily convert your prescription glasses to sunglasses by using the Visionaries Size Chart.  The name of this frame is pretty straightforward: they are literally, as the name suggests, clip-on sunglasses. That means that it features dark lenses for sunlight protection in a frame clipped on over your regular glasses.

 

At VS Eyewear you find the best variety and the highest-quality clip-on sunglasses on the market. Here we offer over twenty shapes of clip ons, so we have the right match for you no matter the style of your eyeglasses. Plus, the frames of our clip ons are available in multiple sizes and four different classic colors – all to give you exactly what you need. And that’s not everything: VS Eyewear polarized clip on sunglasses are available in a variety of different lens colors. Here the possibilities are endless.

Frequently asked questions

Have questions? We’re here to help

→ Do your Clip on glasses protect from Ultra Violet Rays?

Categorized as either UVA or UVB, these invisible ultra violet rays from the sun can cause serious damage to your eyes leading to cataracts, macular degeneration, or permanent retinal impairment. Studies have shown that permanent damage to the eyes can result from prolonged exposure to the sun without adequate protection. Ultra violet (UV) light is the component of sunlight most responsible for eye damage. Excessive exposure, especially from light reflected from sand, snow or pavement, can produce a burn on the surface of the eye.

Although darkly tinted sunglasses may reduce brightness, they do not remove glare as does a polarized lens. In addition, dark sunglasses without added ultraviolet protection may cause more damage to the eyes than not wearing sunglasses at all. The darkness of the lens can cause the pupil to dilate, thus letting more ultraviolet rays into the inner parts of the eye. Polarized lenses solve both problems by eliminating glare and filtering out harmful ultraviolet light because the filter reduces the polarized glare and also has ultraviolet absorbing properties.

→ What are your available lens tints?

Available Visionaries Sunglasses Polarized Lens Tint Options:

  • Blu-Gard – Orange Tint
  • Brown – Brown Tint
  • Copper – Copper Tint
  • Grey – Grey Tint
  • Yellow – Dark Yellow Tint
  • Caribbean Green – Grey base tint with Green Flash mirror
  • Classic Silver – Grey base tint with Silver Flash mirror
  • Crimson Red – Grey base tint with Red Flash mirror
  • Deep Blue – Grey base tint with Blue Flash mirror
  • Hcp Yellow – Yellow base tint with Silver mirror and AR backside coating

→ Care when handling and cleaning the clipons

Always hold the clip-ons by the sides of one of the lenses to avoid scratching or smudging the lens itself.  Whenever your clip-ons are not in use, keep them safe in the case provided.  To clean your clip-ons, we recommend use of soapy water and clean, lint free cloth. Avoid using strong detergents or abrasive cleaning products. Always hold the clip-ons by the side of the lens you are cleaning.

→ Clip on Glasses – Care & FAQ’s


 

→ What Safety advice on wearing the clip ons?

  • The clip on sunglasses are designed for wearing outdoors in daylight to help shield your eyes from the sun’s glare.
  • Never attempt to look directly at the sun even when wearing your clip on sunglasses.
  • Never wear the clip on sunglasses for driving at night or where you may encounter low light conditions such as indoors, a forested area, or when going through a tunnel.
  • We do not recommend the use of the clip on sunglasses for sport as the lenses are not designed to offer protection from impact.
  • Never attempt to put on or take off your clip on sunglasses while driving, operating machinery, or carrying out sports.
  • Ensure you check your clip on sunglasses regularly for any signs of wear and replace them if they are no longer safe to use or if the clips have been damaged.
  • Do not wear your clip on sunglasses for any extended period outdoors in rainy conditions and never put them away in their case damp otherwise damage may result to the lenses, frame and case.


 

→ Care when fitting the Visionaries to your spectacles

Our spring-fit clip on sunglasses have plastic coated lugs for attaching to your prescription glasses. While this helps to protect your glasses from accidental scratching, you should take care when fitting and removing your clipons to minimise contact with your prescription lenses.

Check your clip-ons regularly for any signs of wear to the protective coating on the lugs and replace them if the bare metal is exposed.

VS Eyewear cannot be held responsible for any damage to clip on sunglasses or to the wearer’s prescription glasses that occurs through improper or careless use.


 

→ Will the clip ons fit over plastic, metal, or rimless glasses?

These clip on sunglasses are designed to fit over most styles of plastic, metal, or rimless frames but will not fit over all frames! Using the size guide is the most reliable way to assess whether they will fit your glasses.


 

→ Can I wear the clip ons over my light-reactive lenses?

Yes, many of our customers wear our polarized clip on sunglasses successfully over photochromic, light-reactive lenses such as “Transitions”.


 

→ Does the spring bridge adjust to the width of my frames?

The purpose of the spring bridge is to expand the clip on sunglasses to make them easier to clip over your glasses. When you have clipped them on, the spring-bridge returns to its un-extended width, providing the tension required to hold the clip-ons securely onto your frames.


 

→ Will the clipons attach properly over thick spectacle lenses?

The four retaining clips are designed to fit over lenses up to 4-5 mm thick at the edges.


 

→ Will the clipons attach properly over ultra-thin spectacle lenses?

Provided that you have the correct size of clipons for your frames, they will be secured by the tension on the spring bridge, and therefore fitting over ultra thin lenses should not pose a problem.


 

→ Will the clips scratch my lenses or frames?

The four retaining clips on the clip on sunglasses have a clear vinyl protective sleeve to help protect your lenses and frames from scratching. Provided that you take reasonable care when fitting or removing the clipons, scratching is not normally a problem.


 

→ Will the lenses of the clip on sunglasses scratch easily?

We use our clip on sunglasses on a daily basis and have not experienced any scratching of the tinted lenses during normal use. We have had no reports from customers of this being a problem.


 

→ Do you offer a sizing chart?

Polarized Clip On sunglasses might be the solution you’ve been looking for. Wearing prescription glasses and finding a good pair of sunglasses to go with them is often a struggle. Maybe they do not fit over your current frame or you find it uncomfortable to wear two glasses simultaneously. Clip-on sunglasses are the solution to that problem: with them, you can easily convert your prescription glasses to sunglasses.

→ Are your Clip on glasses manufactured in the USA?

→ How much do polarized clip on sunglasses cost?

Polarized clip on sunglasses at VS Eyewear cost from $40.00 to $45.00. The prices will differ based on the type of lens you choose and whether they are non polarized, polarized, or one of the polarized perception colors.


 

→ How to clip on polarized sunglasses?

To clip on polarized sunglasses to your glasses, first you have to fit one side of the lenses to the frame of your eyeglasses. Then stretch the clip on frame outward, place it over your eyeglass frame and fit the other side of the lenses. Release the clip on and just like that it is clipped onto your eyeglasses.
