How do I swap my prescription lenses?

Our material is pretty darn unique in the optometry industry. Because it is so flexible and durable, with a little effort twisting at the right angle, you can pop out your new prescription lens pretty easily and put it into one of our other frames! Now, we do not recommend swapping out your lenses frequently, especially if you have a prescription that is not a simple one. We particularly do not suggest swapping out the lenses regularly in the "Malibu Sands" round shape frame, as the potential for user error is higher with those lenses (they look the same, much easier to tell with the classic square "Bayside" shape!). Lenses need to be set into the frames correctly to get the correct effect.

IMPORTANT: When swapping your prescription lenses into a new frame, make sure to put them in the same order as you took them out. We mark them: Red on the Right.
A note when swapping prescription lenses into a new frame: It is never a bad idea to have your swapped lenses checked for correct placement by your optician, especially for babies and little ones who cannot self report an issue.
Most opticians will check for free. Peace of mind is worth the time!

If it's hard to pop in your lenses, you can put your frames in hot water (boiling ok!) to soften them before putting in lenses. This is also a great trick for reshaping your frames if they get stretched out. Our frames are slightly malleable in nature, so stretching can occur if bent for prolonged periods. You can easily bend the bridge, arms and ear pieces to adjust your fit to be a little tighter or looser. Don't worry, you can't break them (or we'll replace them for free)!
