Attachment Mechanism

They typically attach via a small clamping mechanism, a magnetic connection (Magnetic Clips), or by fitting over the frame (Fitover style).

Key Benefits

Cost-effective and convenient, as they utilize the wearer's current prescription, instantly converting them into sunglasses.

Safety

Quality sun clips should provide 100% protection against both UVA and UVB radiation and should have optically clear, non-distorting lenses.

Are magnetic clips better?

Magnetic clips are generally preferred for convenience and aesthetics, as the magnets are often integrated discreetly into the primary spectacle frame.

Do they come polarized?

Yes. Many high-quality sun clips are polarized to provide superior glare reduction from surfaces like water and roads.

What is the main drawback?

The primary drawback is that the clip-on mechanism can sometimes be fragile or scratch the main lenses if not handled carefully.
