Polarized lenses make great sense no matter where you are, but for some locations, polarized sunglasses couldn’t be a smarter or more necessary pick.  Really bright and intense sunny locations such as Australia, Africa and the Middle East where the UV rating is seriously high.

Recently, Prince Charles made a trip to the sunny nation of Oman, showing off his style in some Wayfarer looking sunglasses. The Ray-Ban Wayfarer has been famous since the 1930s, but other manufacturers have their own Wayfarer inspired looks as well, such as Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Arnette, Gucci and many others.  Why?  Wayfarers don’t just look very cool; the large frames also provide a good deal of eye protection.  Combining polarized lenses with the large Wayfarer frame makes for an excellent and very effective duo.

Remember if you ever damage your Wayfarer sunglasses or any other sunglass lenses, we can send out a new set of lenses to make sure that you get them quickly and back in style ASAP!  You’ll save money and a great deal of time, and that will certainly help make your day a sunnier one.

Fast car races mean that as a spectator you need to be ready for anything.  Catching all the action as it literally flies by can be tricky if you don’t have the right eyewear.  This is true for any NASCAR event, but it is particularly true for an event such as the Kobalt 400.  The Kobalt 400 is held in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.  With that blazing Vegas sun comes the need for serious sunglasses and sunglass lenses that provide real protection.

Sunglass lenses that reduce glare, such as polarized lenses, are of critical importance for anyone watching racing.  What makes polarized lenses so valuable and necessary for an event like the Kobalt 400?  Polarized lenses cut down on glare so that you can see all the action, but these high-quality sunglass lenses also serve to protect your vision from UV rays.  Whether you opt for a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses or one of the many exciting offerings from a classic sunglass manufacturer like Arnette, you need proper protection.

Wiley X offer a great range of classic style, function sunglasses for the sporty male and are the official sponsor of Matt's Nascar team.

Regardless of what kind of sunglass lenses you wear at the next big race or any sporting event, keep The Sunglass Fix in mind if you damage or scratch them.  Damaged lenses don’t mean useless sunglasses, instead we can replace your sunglass lenses and send them to you anywhere in the world for free.

Paris is always alive and thriving!  But between February 26th and March 6th, the fashion world's superstars showcased some of the very best that the they had to offer.  Sunglasses took on a dramatic role on the Paris fashion stage at this year's event, as cleverly designed eyewear helped attract a great deal of attention. Prada has come out with some very bold floral prints for it's spring/summer 2013 collection.

2013 could be a very interesting year for sunglasses with brands ranging from Arnette to Jason Wu conjuring up some unexpected twists.  Manufacturers have really went out of their way to create some innovative and clever looks that should have people talking, and maybe even talking a little more than normal!

Big and Futuristic Options

This year some of the biggest sunglass manufacturers have added a twist to the usual and time tested favorites like Wayfarer.  Large frames and frames with a decided futuristic edge have made the cut and are now available.  Fashion icons, such as Prada, Versace and Fendi, have some really big and bold designs this year that feature lots of interesting angles and vivid colors.  Clearly, it is going to be a pretty innovative year for the industry and it could mark a real turning point.

Mirrored and Cat Eye Options

If you’ve read my other postings you know that I am a big fan of polarized lenses as they offer a great many advantages, such as boosting clarity of vision.  I also like mirrored lenses a lot and the good news is that they could become quite popular this year.  We've even added a blue mirrored lens that our customers were asking about. Check it out on our Lens Selection page. And if you are a cat lover, then this is your year!  Large cat eye shaped polarized sunglasses from  manufacturers like Jason Wu and Rachel Roy are quite exciting!

This year is all about everything “big” and “interesting.”  But that doesn’t mean that you have to pay big bucks if you damage your sunglasses, as that is never “interesting.”  Instead we can send you new lenses anywhere in the world for a fraction of the cost.  You’ll save time and money!  So no matter whether you damage an old pair of Mui Mui Prada sunglases or fancy Jason Wu shades, we have you covered.
