Removing Ray-Ban lenses typically involves carefully pushing them out from the back of the frame, as demonstrated for models like the Ray-Ban New Wayfarer.
Replacing Ray-Ban lenses can give your sunglasses a new lease on life or allow you to switch to different lens types. While the exact method can vary slightly depending on the specific Ray-Ban model, a common technique involves applying pressure to pop the lens out from the inside of the frame.
Steps for Removing Ray-Ban Lenses
Based on the method shown for Ray-Ban New Wayfarer sunglasses, here is a breakdown of the steps involved:
- Position the Frames: Hold the frames so that they are facing away from you. You should be looking at the inside of the lens you want to remove.
- Grip the Frame: Place one hand on the top part of the eye frame (above the lens). Place your other hand on the bottom part of the eye frame (below the lens).
- Apply Pressure: While maintaining your grip on the frame, push down and outward on the lens from the inside. The goal is to gently apply pressure that encourages the lens to pop out of the frame groove.
- Remove the Lens: Once the lens starts to loosen or pop out, carefully remove it from the frame.
- Note: This method is specifically demonstrated for models like the Ray-Ban New Wayfarer. Other Ray-Ban models, especially those with metal frames or screw-in lenses, may require a different process, potentially involving a small screwdriver.
Always handle your frames and lenses with care during this process to avoid scratching or damaging them. If you are unsure or uncomfortable performing this task, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional optician or eyewear specialist.
