How do I add a sun tint to my prescription sunglasses?

You can choose from the tint options available with us. All the tints provide 100% UVA and UVB protection and are available in different lens colours. Adding a tint allows you to enjoy a fashion element added to your prescription sunglasses with full functionality. Below are our tints options:

Full Tints – For bright environments, these full dark tints can help reduce eye strain and block 100% UVA and UVB light.

Gradient – Perfect for driving and reading, this tint option makes your lenses darker at the top and clear at the bottom. This is bliss for drivers and readers who find it difficult to see when sunlight is directly hitting their eyes. The top dark part will protect your eyes from the sun overhead, while the clear part at the bottom will allow you to see things in front of and below you clearly. This tint option comes with 100% UVA/B protection.

Mirrored – This tint comes with 100% UVA/B protection and helps minimise the glare from reflective surfaces in bright conditions such as skiing. The mirrored surface also adds to a fashion factor, offering both fashion and functionality.

Polarised – Ideal for water sports such as surfing, fishing and . This tint option enhances contrast for clear and comfortable vision so that you can enjoy your sports or a day out fishing with your perfect pair of prescription sunglasses.

How to choose a lens type

Choosing the right lens type is crucial when selecting your new pair of glasses:

Single vision

This lens type has one prescription that covers the entire lens. Single vision is ideal for a single prescription, either for distance or reading.

Bifocal lenses

Bifocal lenses contain two different prescriptions in one lens, making it the perfect option if you require correction for both distance and reading.

Progressive lenses

These lenses also contain multiple prescriptions. They correct vision at different distances by gradually changing power, allowing you to enjoy seamless vision.
