Start / FAQ
Please contact an optical, bicycle or sports retailer near you. They will be happy to order the sports glasses you require. Many specialist retailers are already our customers. To find out whether there is already a Swisseye retailer in your area, please use the retailer search.
Many of our products are always in stock and usually arrive at the specialist retailer within 1-2 days. We ask for your understanding if an item is sold out and delivery is delayed. Swiss Eye will of course inform the retailer about the status of the order.
We have spare parts in stock for the current products (nose pads, center bars, etc.). Please contact your dealer for this.
The product catalog contains the respective instructions for use for each model. All instructions for use can be found under Downloads.

Glasses are divided into different transmission levels (light transmission levels). This classification has nothing to do with UV protection. All our sports glasses – including the clear ones – offer 100% UVA, UVB and UVC protection.
Category 0:
for heavily overcast days or indoor use (clear)
Category 1 and 2:
light to medium sunlight (orange, yellow)
Category 3:
strong solar radiation (smoke, brown)
Category 4:
very strong sunlight (e.g. on a glacier) and is therefore not suitable for driving. The Guardian Arctic falls into this category.

Due to the many different possibilities, the bandwidth is greater than with direct glazing. Nevertheless, here too there is a range that may not be technically feasible. This should also be specifically clarified by an optician.

What is the best way to clean the RX clip?
