Many clients ask if Ray-Ban repairs sunglasses and, if so, how much it costs. They want to know if they can get genuine replacement parts for their sunglasses repair.
Many glasses frame repair centres will offer Ray Ban repairs but, when pressed, will admit they cannot provide original parts such as lenses and arms.
They offer appropriately priced repairs but can only use generic or custom-supplied parts, usually sourced from the Far East.
It is because Ray-Ban's parent company, Luxottica, is very particular about branding and keeps a tight reign on those who sell its luxury brand products.
Only approved retailers get access to the Ray-Ban product range. This privileged access is too high a bar for many frame repair workshops.
As a result, they cannot source original and genuine Ray-ban parts for use in sunglasses repair.
Fortunately, AlphaOmega is a fully approved retailer of Ray-Ban eyewear and can, therefore, offer Ray-Ban glasses repair customers the real deal.
Luxottica does offer a two-year warranty against manufacturing defects, but this does not include lens scratching, wear and tear or accidental damage. Details are given on their warranty web page.
All we need is the code
Replacement parts for your precious Ray-Bans can be guaranteed to come from the manufacturer. If new parts are required, we only need the model, colour code and size to have your sunglasses returned to you looking as good as new. All the necessary codes can be found etched on the temple arm of your Ray-Bans, beginning with the letters RB. Of course, if your sunglasses require the purchase of original Ray-Ban spare parts, there may be an extra charge to cover the cost.
Wear and tear on sunglasses
It's not only broken parts that can be a problem. Everyday wear and tear can take its toll on your favourite pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses. AlphaOmega offers a thorough, low-cost check and clean service for customers who want to keep their sunglasses in tip-top shape. Should you need a new or backup pair of Ray-Bans, our sister site AlphaSunglasses has some excellent deals on Ray-Ban and Oakley eyewear products.
