–How can I protect my sunglasses from damage?
To protect your sunglasses, you should follow these simple rules:
1. When we do not use sunglasses, we always put them in their case.
2. Never put sunglasses on the head-hair because these arms open or can break but also get loose.
3. We don’t wear glasses in sea, because salty water can destroy filters or lenses itself.
4. We always clean our glasses with the special micro-fiber wipe.
-If my lenses are scratched but my frame is in a good condition can I change only lenses?
