Description:

Transform your prescription glasses into premium sunglasses with our patented magnetic clip system. All Chemistrie Sun Clips provide 100% UV protection, with 24 polarized and three non-polarized lens colors available.

Each Sun Clip is custom-made to fit your existing glasses, or you can pair it with new clip-ready Chemistrie eyewear.

Turn Your Eyeglasses Into Sunglasses With a Click.

Chemistrie Sun isn't your average pair of sunglasses. Made from premium polarized materials, our lenses filter 100% of harmful UV rays while reducing glare. The difference? Chemistrie Sun comes as a magnetic clip, custom fit to your prescription frames. Simply click it on for outdoor protection, and off when you're indoors. It's smarter, more flexible, and far more stylish than wearing bulky sunglasses all day.

UV protection

Full coverage from UVA and UVB rays for all day outdoor comfort and visual clarity.

Polarized

Cuts the glare that comes off water, snow, wet roads and the hood of your car.

27 colors

Twenty four polarized colors across solid, mirror and gradient finishes, plus three non polarized.

Why a clip

A second pair means another frame, another prescription, another case, and another thing to remember. Chemistrie turns the glasses already on your face into sunglasses in seconds, so you can step outside ready for the sun without switching pairs.

    Best Multi-Use Glasses EVER

    These glasses are amazing. It is so great to have two glasses in one. When needed, they are regular glasses for normal life. Then when you use the various shaded clip on lenses, it is for outdoor use. I love not having to carry several pairs of glasses. Also, they frames are strong but light weight. And there are many colors and styles to choose from so the options are great. I highly recommend these glass to everyone, because let's face it, we all go outdoors at some point. That's when these dual-use frames are absolutely the best. Don't wait. Order yourself a pair and see how well they work and how convenient it is to have 2 more more pairs of glasses -- in one frame.

About Sun Clips

Chemistrie Sun turns the prescription glasses you already wear into polarized clip-on sunglasses. The clip goes on with a click, held by magnets set into your lenses, and comes off just as fast when you walk back inside. No second pair of prescription sunglasses to buy, carry, or leave in the wrong car.

27 Lens Colors, Polarized or Not

Chemistrie Sun comes in 27 colors: 24 polarized and 3 non-polarized. The polarized lenses come in three styles.

  • Solid: Grey, Brown, G-15, Bronze, and more.
  • Mirror: Blue, Gold, Silver, Caliente, and more.
  • Gradient: darker at the top and lighter toward the bottom.

The three non-polarized options are there for a reason. Some screens, like car dashboards and gas pumps, can look dark or striped through a polarized lens. NP Grey, NP Brown, and NP G-15 keep them readable.

Glare Control and 100% UV Protection

Polarization cuts the glare that bounces off roads, water, snow, and car glass. A plain tint mostly makes everything darker. Every Sun clip, polarized or not, gives 100% UV protection (UVA and UVB). How dark a lens looks tells you nothing about its UV protection, so there's no need to pick the darkest one.

Photochromic lenses often stay light in the car, because the windshield blocks the UV that darkens them. A Sun clip needs nothing to switch it on. It works the moment it's on your glasses.

Made to Fit Your Frames

Each clip is measured and cut to the shape of your lenses, so it follows their outline and leaves your frame in view. Small 2 mm neodymium magnets are set into your prescription lenses near the edge, out of your main line of sight. No clamps or springs press on your frame. Made and used properly, the clip is designed not to scratch your lenses or damage your frame.

It works with virtually any frame: full-rim, semi-rimless, and rimless. Running, biking, and fishing are fine. Leave it off for swimming, and for contact sports, where a knock to the face can dislodge it.

Two Ways to Get Started

  • Use your own glasses: order your clip, mail us your glasses with the prepaid label, and both come back together.
  • Choose a Chemistrie frame: pick a new frame, and we make your lenses with the magnets set in before it ships.

One pair of glasses can do the work of several. Add a Sun clip in a second color, or a different clip for night driving or screens, and switch in a second. Wear one clip at a time.

Chemistrie Sun clips come with free 30-day returns. They are also sold through authorized eye care professionals; use our store locator to find one near you.
