Having a detachable sunglasses add on to your glasses is extremely convenient. In the past, a lot of companies offered clip-on sunshades to almost any frame to accommodate the customer request. Unfortunately, time has proven that these clip-ons usually rub on the prescription lenses and cause scratches that even scratch resistant coatings cannot fight.

Magnetic Sun Clips

Magnetic clip-ons are the perfect solution! These separate sunglass pieces attach to your frame by a couple of magnets, either on the bridge or on top of the hinges. The only downfall is that we do not offer these for every single frame, but rather a collection of frames that have been specifically designed for the magnetized attachments. Our magnetic sunshades are polarized, and made of flexible yet very durable material.

Frame displayed in the picture is Exesto Vintage; this model comes in 2 colors and, as with all our glasses, includes single vision standard lenses with all lens coatings.
