With the goal of helping to protect our customers and employees, we have established an enhanced store cleaning protocol, including the frequent cleaning of all high-contact surfaces. Each pair of glasses will be cleaned after a customer tries them. We will also adhere to all social distancing requirements. Our associates will be wearing masks and customers should be wearing masks in states where it is mandated.

We clean each pair of glasses after they have been handled by an associate or a customer.

We are using a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.

We have the majority of our styles in stock in the store, so the pair you purchase has never been opened or tried on by another customer. If we don’t have your particular choice in stock, we can order it for you via our Smart Shopper and have it shipped directly to your home.

After a customer tries on a pair of glasses, they should then place them in one of the styling trays that are designated for pairs customers have tried on. Customers should not be placing any glasses back on the shelf.

We will observe social distancing requirements, ensuring our customers are at least 6 feet apart and limiting the number of customers in the store at one time.

We are providing our associates with face masks. Our goal is to help maintain the health and safety of our people as well as our customers and patients.

Everything that has shipped from our distribution center has been thoroughly cleaned for your safety before it is placed in its packaging.

We have extended our return policy and you can return your purchase up to 60 days after we reopened our doors. This may vary by location. The glasses must be in their original condition.

Our process for cleaning returned glasses in the same as the process in-store. Our frames are thoroughly cleaned are using a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.

Customers are only mandated to wear a face mask in the states where a face covering is required, but we will be offering face masks to customers who enter the store.

Our proactive approach, supported at all levels of the company, incorporates the guidance of the CDC and WHO, as well as that of our own internal experts who have decades of experience managing through global crises. While there are no known cases of COVID-19 among our employees, our first action was to adopt an extra vigilant cleaning protocol to ensure that our factories, stores and other workplaces remain free of contaminants. We have also limited all non-essential air travel, postponed large scale business gatherings and implemented stricter vendor policies. Each of our team members in N.A. has access to the LiveSafe app where they can find emergency resources in their city, access company health and safety news and self-report any symptoms. All of this is designed to give our employees peace of mind as they continue to serve you.

We are determined to maintain our commitment to our customers. Our vertically integrated supply chain allows us full visibility of the manufacturing and shipping process.

Current research, which is still evolving, shows that the chance of spreading the virus through the eyes is possible, but rare. Studies found only a small amount of virus in tears of infected individuals. That said, in alignment with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), you should take all necessary precautions to avoid touching your eyes.

While glasses may potentially provide some protection from COVID-19, that protection is limited to the shielded area of the eye. The virus can still reach your eyes from the exposed sides, tops and bottoms of your glasses. In alignment with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), you should take all necessary precautions to avoid touching your eyes.

Because taking care of our employees is our primary focus at a time like this, all Sunglass Hut employees will be made whole on their paychecks over the next two weeks despite the store closures.

COVID-19 is thought to remain on some materials for hours or days. For this reason, it’s advisable to regularly clean your glasses. A standard hand soap or glasses cleaning spray that contains detergent should be effective at removing potentially harmful microbes. Using antibacterial products such as hand sanitizer or household cleaning spray to clean your glasses is not recommended. This is because they probably contain alcohol or chemicals that could damage the lens surface of your glasses.

There are many studies that associate prolonged computer use with eye strain and discomfort. Ocular surface dryness (due to infrequent blinking) can result in symptoms. To minimize this, you should follow the 20-20-20 rule: take a break every 20 minutes and look at an object 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. You can also change your computer display brightness, increase font size and minimize glare with proper lighting.

Of course you can. Use your gift card or an e-gift card online or at any one of our nearly 2,000 store locations. Gift cards can be used to make a full or partial payment of an order. And if your gift card falls short, you can make up the balance with another payment type, like a credit card, PayPal or applepay.Simply enter your gift card number and PIN (found on the back of your card or in your email if its an e-gift card) during the checkout process.

A gift card is a physical card (like a bank card) that has a 16-digit gift card number and an 8-digit PIN number, printed on the back of the card. An e-Gift Card is a virtual gift card that is sent via email (but it still has a 16-digit gift card number and an 8-digit PIN number, just like a physical card). Both a physical gift card and an e-gift card can be used online or in any Sunglass Hut stores (excluding partner stores, such as Macys).

You sure can. Your gift card carries a balance until all of the credit is used up. One thing to remember, however, is that when you use your gift card online, your card is locked until your order is fully processed and shipped. During that time, your balance will be unavailable to use.

You can buy a gift card right here at sunglasshut.com , just follow this link or any Sunglass Hut store using a valid form of payment, including another Sunglass Hut gift card.

Unfortunately a Sunglass Hut gift card cannot be returned. There's no expiration date, however. So save it. Re-gift it. Or better yet, use it. You can always do with a new pair of sunglasses.

You can check your gift card balance online by clicking here. Alternatively you can check in any Sunglass Hut store or by calling our Customer Services team at 1-888-860-7966. Please have you Gift Card number to hand when calling which you can find on the back of the card or for an e-gift card within the email that was sent to you.

A gift card should be treated just as you treat cash. If you no longer have your gift card then we sadly cannot offer a replacement.

We are able to add additional funds to a Sunglass hut Gift Card at any of our stores. To find your nearest store use our Store Locator here.

Not all at once. If you buy something and have a balance left over, you can use your card again on your next purchase. If your gift card falls short on your next purchase, you can just make up the balance with a valid credit card.

Of course. Both regular gift cards and e-gift cards can be used online and in all Sunglass Hut stores (excluding shop in shops, such as Macys).

When you have chosen the amount of the e-gift card that you want to send and checked out online then an email is sent to the recipient informing them of your gift. The email to the recipient shows who the e-gift card is to and who it’s from as well as the gift card amount, the 16 digit gift card number and the 8 digit PIN (so that it can be used either online or in-store). As the sender you will also receive an email with all these details (except, of course, the gift card number and PIN).

Keeping your sunglasses clean with help them - and you - look great and perform well. However, premium sunglasses and especially their lenses require careful treatment. Improper care can damage lenses, resulting in scratches or haziness, which in turn may cause eyestrain.

So, the best way to clean your sunglasses is by gently rubbing them with a lens cleaning cloth and a liquid cleaner specifically designed for eyewear lenses, or with a pre-moistened lens towelette. It's also a good idea to occasionally bring them into a Sunglass Hut store for a complimentary in-store cleaning and adjustment. Find a store near you.

To avoid damage, never clean your sunglasses with paper towels or clothing, which can grind dust and fibers into lenses and leave scratches. Also avoid using household detergents or soaps. While a few mild soaps don't harm lenses, today's extra strength soaps are powerful enough to slowly disintegrate lens coatings. Glass cleaners especially are highly corrosive and can damage your lenses quickly. They are not designed for use on the non-glass lens materials used in sunglasses.

While none of these products will do immediate apparent damage to your senses, over time and with repetition, the damage will become visible.

We have cleaning kits available online for purchase or in stores. Simply search for “clean”!

Keep your sunglasses in top condition by using our complimentary in-store cleaning and adjustment services. Find a store near you.

Polarized lenses fight glare by minimizing the passage of undesirable light to the eye. The result is sharper vision, more vivid color and greater depth perception. Click here to see our Polarized page.

Photochromatic lenses darken with UV exposure, adjusting to a variety of light conditions.

Anti-reflective lenses reduce distracting reflections that can bounce off the back of the lens into the eye.

Gradient lenses fade from a darker tint to a lighter tint, allowing for comfortable vision over a wide range of distance and lighting conditions.

Frames that have interchangeable lenses let you swap out lenses for different looks and performances.

Mirrored lenses have reflective coating that reduces the amount of light passing through to the eye.
