Bnus italy made classic sunglasses corning real glass lens w. polarized option

Comment

I like the clarity of vision these glass lenses provide. I was tired of my polycarbonate lenses scratching so easily and making things look fuzzy. I was desperately seeking glass sunglasses because glass is more scratch resistant than other types and was very happy to find them. They fit me well; the front piece measures 5 and 5/8 inches across. I like the colour choices for both the frames and lenses. Like other reviewers, I wish they came in more style choices but that said, this is a nice basic style. Overall, good quality at a great price.

Quality for the price is out of this world. These fit and feel better than some ray bans or Oakley glasses I have purchased.

What a deal for polarized glass lenses and high quality frame construction and material. Made in Italy and US (lenses are Corning optics) for this price! Just look at what sunglass companies they sell replacement glass lenses for. The lenses are clear with no hazy distortions. The frame construction is really solid with great action on the hinges. May be tight on a wider head, they are snug in mine but no discomfort. I only wish they had more style options using same materials and construction. I have had many different high end sunglasses and just got sick of breaking them. Never going back now, same quality for third the price. And they are not made in China?!?! The seller was very responsive. I had also ordered a grey style HP lense and for me grey does not give enough contrast while mountain biking and fly fishing so the HP lense did not. Help. The regular polarized brown lense was the way to go for color contrast and detail IMO. So the seller took care of the issue, no problem! The grey lenses are still great but just mute certain colors and contrasts to much for me. Another person may disagree but in any case, the seller handled it very well.

After lots of research to find glass lens polarized sunglasses, I chose BNUS. I knew size was important, so I checked the width carefully. I ordered polarized green lenses in a tortoise frame. After keeping them 3 days and wearing them on the patio in sunlight and looking across a pond in back, I returned them for a refund for 3 reasons: 1) Ive worn polarized sunglasses for many years, and if these were polarized, I couldnt tell. Glare with or without the glasses was the same. True test, I couldnt see into the water beyond the surface. 2) Fit of temples was tight against my head even though the glasses measure wide. 3) Hinges were OK, but nothing that looked like they would hold up with years of wearing. I have RayBans that Ive used for 20+ years, and these BNUS glasses dont compare. I concluded these are satisfactory glasses that come in a fancy cloth bag and fancy box with a cleaning cloth. Much of the $50 cost was in the extras, not the glasses. Ill keep looking.

If you are looking for dark lenses and a good polarization with very good clarity then these are for you! I love these flash type lenses but usually they scratch super easy and are not very dark. These are not made from plastic but multilayer glass like Costa Del Mar which cost a lot more. In fact I would guess they are using the same lenses or technology. So from a cost perspective on the lenses alone these are an excellent value. They are also dark enough to wear in very bright light conditions. I have light eyes and am sensitive to the sun. These are amazing. The frame is really well made but I just wish they had more style choices for the frames. These frames are very well made but not as flattering on me as I would like. So for driving and sports these are awesome. I do wish they included a microfiber cloth bag instead of the useless organic cotton bag that could even scratch the lenses?? I have a pair of Costa Del Mar and Oakleys and these fit right in as far as quality and lenses for a fraction of the cost. If you like the style or can deal with it then these are an awesome value!!
