FAQs
About the Brand & Craftsmanship
Q: What makes Reykjavik Eyes frames unique?
A: Reykjavik Eyes frames combine clean, contemporary Icelandic-inspired design with precision Italian craftsmanship. Made from premium Japanese beta titanium, they are exceptionally lightweight, flexible and durable, with an innovative screwless hinge that offers a distinctive combination of comfort and engineering.
Q: Are Reykjavik Eyes frames completely screwless?
A: Yes. Our signature design relies on an innovative screwless hinge mechanism. A series of intricate folds and bends ensures that the temples stay perfectly secure without the use of traditional screws or rivets, meaning you never have to worry about hinges loosening over time.
Q: Are the frames hypoallergenic?
A: Yes. The frames are made from premium Japanese beta titanium, which is nickel-free, biocompatible and suitable for most people with sensitive skin.
Sizing & Fit
Q: How do I choose the right frame size?
A: Each product page includes detailed frame measurements, including lens width, bridge width and temple length. You can compare these with the measurements printed on the inside of your current glasses to help find a similar fit.
Q: Are Reykjavik Eyes frames comfortable for all-day wear?
A: Their lightweight titanium construction helps reduce pressure on the nose and ears, making them comfortable for extended daily wear.
Q: Can I wear these frames with headphones or headsets?
A: Yes. The slim titanium temples sit close to the side of your head, helping to reduce pressure when worn with over-ear headphones, communication headsets or hearing protection.
Lenses & Maintenance
Q: Can my optician fit prescription lenses into these frames?
A: Yes. Reykjavik Eyes frames are suitable for prescription lenses, including single vision, bifocal and varifocal lenses. Your optician will be able to advise on the most suitable lens options for your prescription and chosen frame.
Q: Can I choose sunglasses or tinted lenses?
A: Yes. Most Reykjavik Eyes frames can be fitted with prescription sunglasses, tinted lenses or photochromic lenses. You order directly from the website or speak to your optician about the options available.
Q: How should I clean my frames?
A: Clean your frames using the supplied microfibre cloth and a suitable optical lens cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners or household chemicals, as these may damage the finish.
Q: Do the hinges need adjusting or tightening?
A: The patented screwless hinge does not use traditional screws, so there are no screws to tighten. If your frames become misaligned through everyday wear, your optician can make any necessary adjustments.
Q: Do Reykjavik Eyes frames come with a case?
A: Yes. Every pair of Reykjavik Eyes frames is supplied with a protective case and cleaning cloth to help keep your eyewear in excellent condition.
