Polarised prescription lenses are available as an upgrade to help reduce reflected glare from surfaces such as roads and water.

Bifocal lenses, thinner lens options and additional coatings are also available at extra cost. Choose your options using the Select lenses button; the price updates as you make your selections.

Choose your preferred frame and lens-colour combination before starting lens selection.

Included

A microfibre pouch is included with your sunglasses. A hard case is sold separately and is available at half price when purchased with any pair.

The samples are black, regardless of the colour you may later choose.

FAQs

 How does the Scholar differ from Classic and Gent XXL sunglasses? 

All three XXL frames are 165mm wide, but their shapes and other measurements differ. The Scholar has rounded lenses and a keyhole-style bridge, the Classic has a squarer lens shape, and the Gent has a shallower profile.

Use our Fitting Guide for a suggested size. Head shape and bridge fit also matter. UK prescription customers can request sample frames to try at home before ordering.

 Are polarised prescription lenses included in the price? 

The starting price includes standard 1.5 single vision, non-polarised prescription sun lenses with an anti-scratch coating.

Polarised prescription lenses are an optional upgrade. They help reduce reflected glare from surfaces such as roads and water. Bifocals, thinner lenses and additional coatings also cost extra.

Use Select lenses to explore the options and see your updated total before adding your sunglasses to the cart.

 How do I order and send you my prescription? 

Choose your frame colour, then tap Select lenses and follow the steps to choose your lenses and upgrades. You can upload a photo or PDF of your prescription, enter the details manually, or choose to email it to us after ordering.

If you choose to send it later, email your prescription to info@fadeddays.co.uk with your order number. Please allow up to 14 calendar days for UK delivery from the date we receive your prescription.
