The Ray-Ban Sunglasses Sizing Guide
The sizing of Ray-Ban sunglasses can be easily determined by the size measurement printed on the inside of the left temple. The number usually consists of three numbers, such as 50-20-150.
• The first number in the sequence refers to the width of the lens in millimetres.
• The second number in the sequence refers to the bridge width in millimetres, and is the distance between the lenses.
• The third number in the sequence represents the temple length, or the ‘arms’ of the frame, in millimetres.
How To Care For Your Ray-Ban Sunglasses
We recommend that you always store your Ray-Ban sunglasses in the original case to
ensure that no damage can be done when they are not in use. Avoid placing the sunglasses lens side down as this may cause scratches on the lenses.
If cleaning is required, use a glasses cleaning spray and a clean microfiber cloth to gently clean the lenses and frame. We also recommend not leaving your glasses out in the elements as this
may affect the lenses and hinges on your sunglasses.
