Hi all,
My daughter has broken one of the lens of her RayBan Aviator sunglasses. Fortunately it’s only one and the one not with RayBan P on it…..unfortunately they’re polarised.
I’ve been to a local sunglasses outlet and they said that it will be at least half the price of the glasses and I think they cost me $320, so that’s really $160 for one lens; ok, they said that they would replace both.
Is there any cheaper method to replace the broken lens or must I just shut up and pay up?
I’ve been in touch and they said that they don’t have a replacement or repair policy in Australia. Any repairs must go through resellers and sent overseas for repair.

They look like a decent outfit. I’ll chase them up. Thanks
I must say you're making my kids $10 polarised glasses from the markets look like good value!
I suppose it will be a good lesson to her to look after expensive things when she has to pay the repair bill.
Trust me, these are the one and only pair that she will be having. I’ve just bought myself a pair of RayBans too and if I’d realised that lens replacement was so costly/difficult, I wouldn’t have bothered.
Sunglasses really are a rip off.
They're not original lenses but I'm quite happy with a set that I got from here https://www.revantoptics.com/replacement-lenses which did fit perfectly.
I think they also have ebay listings.
$275 for classic aviators
$295 for flash lenses.
I would maybe contact rayban themselves to see if they offer a better price for one lense because half the price is quite a bit
