Can COVID-19 transmit through eyes?
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.
Do glasses help protect against COVID-19?
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.
How should I clean my glasses in this period?
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.
What can I do about increased screen time straining my eyes?
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.

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).
Can I make multiple purchases with my gift card?
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.
How do I purchase a gift card/e-gift card?
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.
Can I return a gift card or e-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.
How do I check my gift card/e-gift card balance?
You can check your gift card balance online by clicking here.
What if I lose my gift card?
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.
How do I add money to a current sgh gift card?
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.
Do I need to spend the exact amount on my gift card?
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.
Can I use an e-gift card in a store?
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).
What exactly does the recipient receive when I send an e-gift card?
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).
Is it possible to redeem a gift card for cash?
Yes, only the Sunglass Hut stores in the states listed below allow the balance of their gift cards to be redeemed for cash:

Read what the experts recommend for keeping your sunglasses in top condition.
How should I care for my sunglasses?
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 sight, over time and with repetition, the damage will become visible.
How can I order accessories and/or cleaning supplies?
We have cleaning kits available online for purchase or in stores. Simply search for “clean”!
What if I need my sunglasses adjusted?
Keep your sunglasses in top condition by using our complimentary in-store cleaning and adjustment services. Find a store near you.

Get to the bottom of all the benefits, plus find simple definitions for high-tech terms.
What does "polarized" mean?
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.
What does "photochromatic" mean?
Photochromatic lenses darken with UV exposure, adjusting to a variety of light conditions.
What are anti-reflective lenses?
Anti-reflective lenses reduce distracting reflections that can bounce off the back of the lens into the eye.
What are the benefits of gradient lenses?
Gradient lenses fade from a darker tint to a lighter tint, allowing for comfortable vision over a wide range of distance and lighting conditions.
Why might I want interchangeable lenses?
Frames that have interchangeable lenses let you swap out lenses for different looks and performances.
What are the benefits of mirrored lenses?
Mirrored lenses have reflective coating that reduces the amount of light passing through to the eye.
How do I find my frame size?
To find your frame size, measure your features according to this guide:
Eye Size:
Measured from outermost edges of lenses horizontally.
Approx. 40mil - 62mil
Bridge Size:
The distance between lenses.
Approx. 14mil - 24mil
Temple Size:
Length of the temple piece - also known as the arm piece or earpiece.
Approx. 120mil - 150mil
What difference do lens colors make?
All colors absorb light differently. Lens colors determine which parts of the light spectrum pass through the lens to your eye.
Gray or "smoked" lenses protect eyes from dangerous ultraviolet radiation without distorting colors. They reduce glare and absorb the same quality of light at any wavelength, which makes them good for driving, prolonged wear and general use.
Yellow lenses filter out near-UV blue light while allowing a larger percentage of other frequencies through. Since blue light creates glare, these lenses make everything really bright and sharp. Just don't use them for anything that requires accurate color perception. With yellow lenses, colors are very distorted
Brown lenses are good for general use. Like yellow lenses, they filter out a large proportion of blue light, but they offer greater clarity and contrast, and help you maintain optimal vision even in irregular light.
Green lenses offer the highest contrast and greatest visual acuity of any tint. They also filter some blue light and reduce glare. This filter is recommended for prolonged use in extreme conditions.
Purple and rose lenses offer the best contrast for object against a green or blue background, making them ideal for water sports.
What prescription lenses do you offer?
- Single Vision: Corrects Near, intermediate or far-sightedness
- Progressive: One lens that corrects both near and far-sightedness, without having to switch glasses
What are your lens treatments?
- UV Protection and Scratch Resistant: Blocks 100% UV rays and protects against scratches
- Premium Anti-Reflective: Eliminates unwanted reflections and repels water and oil
- Polarized Coating: Reduces glare in extra braight light, for superior clarity and protection of the eye
What are your lens types?
- Solid Tint: Uniform tinted lenses in various different colors
- Mirrored: Uniquely coated lenses that reduce glare and hide your eyes
- Gradient: Darker at the top and clearer at the bottom

How do i read my eyeglasses prescription?
When you look at your prescription for eyeglasses, you will see numbers listed under the headings of OS and OD.
OS (oculus sinister) means the left eye and OD (oculus dextrus) means the right eye. Occasionally, you will see a notation for OU, which means it involves both eyes.
The further away from zero the number on your prescription, the stronger prescription you need. A “plus” (+) in front of the number means you are farsighted, and a “minus” (-) means you are nearsighted.
If you have astigmatism, there will be three numbers in your prescription. The general form for writing these numbers is S x C x Axis.

How can I make sure i receive my Sun Points after each purchase?
In order to award you points, we need to know that you are a The Sun Club member when you make a purchase. This is how you can ensure we are aware of your membership:
1. Online: If you check out on sunglasshut.com, make sure you are logged into your My Account page when making a purchase.
2. In store: Make sure you always tell your store associate that you are an The Sun Club member and give them your email address that is linked to your The Sun Club membership.

I didn't earn Sun Points on my purchase. Why is that?
There are two reasons why you may not have been awarded points for your purchase.
- In order to award you points, we need to know that you are a The Sun Club member when you make a purchase. If you did not self-identify as a member by logging into your My Account before you completed your purchase online, you would not have been recognized as a member of our Loyalty Program. When shopping in one of our stores, if you did not self-identify as a The Sun Club member by giving your store associate your email address, you would not have been recognized as a member of our Loyalty Program.
- Some products are not eligible for points accrual. Moreover, some special moments of the year have their own eligibility and qualification requirements which might exclude The Sun Club members from earning points on certain purchases.
What happens to my Sun Points if I return my order or part of it, or if my order is cancelled?
If you make a return or if your order gets cancelled, Sun Points received for those items will be deducted from your Sun Point balance at the time of the return. If the remaining balance of your active Sun Points is not enough for your current status threshold, you might also incur a status downgrade.
Do my Sun Points expire?
Yes. Sun Points are valid for a period of 24 months rolling and expire on the last day of the calendar month in which they were earned (i.e., if points are earned on 8/14/2024, they will expire on 8/31/2026). It is your responsibility to keep track of when your Sun Points may expire.
How can I check my Sun Point balance, accrual missions and rewards?
Here's how you can get information on your The Sun Club membership, points and rewards:
- Sign in to your My Account on sunglasshut.com
- Ask any store associate when you next visit one of our stores
- Call us on 1.800.786.4527.
