How to Find the Right Clip-On For Your Glasses

A good way to start is check to see if you have a number on the temple arm of your glasses for example 54-18-140, the first number is important. The first number is width of one of your lenses not including the rim around your lenses. You will need to order a clip-on width at least as big as the first number shown on the inside of your frames temple arm. Some glasses do not put a number there or it is worn off so in that case you would need to measure using the directions below.

1.  Measure ONE lens of your glasses including the rim around your lens with a millimeter ruler.
2.  Next pick the closest clip-on shape shown below compared to that of your glasses.

Example:
If one lens of your glasses measures 52mm, you should order a 52mm clip-on or the next size up if the rim around your lens is thick. A clip-on that is slightly larger will fit better than one that is too small. 

Matching the Lens Shape of Your Glasses to a Clip-on Shape

In addition to size, the shape of your lenses matters. Choose the closest match. Your goal is to get as close as you can to the right shape of your glasses.

• Round lenses → Semi round clip-ons or round square shape clip-ons. 

• Square lenses → Round square clip-ons

• Rectangle lenses → Rectangular shape clip-ons

*** Important notes: The clip-on should never be too snug. The clip-on lens should not rest on your glasses. You can sometimes nudge the clip-on hooks slightly inwards so the lens of the clip-on is not resting directly on the lenses of your glasses. 

Always clean the lenses on your prescription glasses before attaching the clip-on. Please be careful when trying on clip-on sunglasses, never put on a pair of clip-on sunglasses that is too small or force a clip-on sunglass to fit. We cannot be responsible if you accidentally scratch one of your lenses. If it looks too small or feels too tight, please send the clip-on back for a refund. If you have an expensive pair of eyeglasses, we recommend checking with your eyeglass dealer if they have a matching clip-on for your glasses.

METHOD #2:  We might also be able to help with sizing if you have an every day  household printer/scanner. You can email us a scan of your glasses using the directions at this on this page Scanning Glasses For Clip-on Sizing Help.
