Frequently Asked Questions About Sunglasses

How can sunglasses really start at $18.95?

Our $18.95 styles are part of our SALE rotation — fully-functional, optician-verified frames from past-season collections. No hidden lens upcharges; $18.95 buys a complete pair of non-prescription sunglasses with 100% UV protection.

Can I make any Aoolia sunglass frame into prescription?

Yes — almost every frame in our sunglasses collection can be made prescription. Choose your frame, upload your Rx at checkout, and we'll make single-vision, bifocal, or progressive lenses. Prescription sunglasses typically ship in 7–10 business days.

What's the difference between polarized and UV400?

UV400 blocks harmful ultraviolet radiation (UVA + UVB) that damages your eyes over time. Polarization is a separate lens treatment that reduces horizontal glare — think: sun bouncing off a wet road or lake surface. You want UV400 always; polarized is a preference (great for drivers and anyone near water).

How do I know what sunglasses fit my face shape?

Round faces look best in angular frames (square, rectangle). Square faces suit softer shapes (round, oval, cat-eye). Oval faces work with almost anything. Heart-shaped faces balance with bottom-heavy frames (aviator). See our full face shape guide for measurement tips.

Are polarized sunglasses worth the extra cost?

If you drive daily, spend time on water, or are light-sensitive: yes, polarized is worth the $10–15 upgrade. If you're mostly in the city and not light-sensitive, standard UV400 tinted lenses do the protection job at a lower price.
