No need to send us the glasses you wear every day.

Fitting clips to the pair you already wear means mailing them to us. Some glasses you would rather not be without, even for a few days. Order this frame instead and your lenses are made for it with the magnets set in, and your clip is cut to match. Nothing you already own leaves your face.
