Let us debunk the myth of “only expensive is good.” At MacV we don’t associate quality with price. We commit that our products are crafted for the Unique You. So, while we ensure that the products live up to your expectations in terms of style, quality, and functionality; how can we miss on the crucial deciding criteria like the price.
Our Sunglasses have polycarbonate lenses which ensure UV 400 protection; therefore your eyes are safe from both UVA and UVB Radiation. So don’t worry and go for whichever product you like. Leave rest to us!
As often as you see a new style trending! Jokes apart, experts suggest that you should replace sunglasses once every 2 years. But on a serious note again, why wait so long – there is so much to try on 😉
Do you even need to protect your eyes? If it’s a YES; then you surely need Sunglasses.
Yes, just as bad as you thought milk was for you when you were young!
However, you need to be cautious about the pair you pick because the wrong ones can lead to strained eyes, mild headaches, and eye damage.
When wearing sunglasses without polarization, the lenses only reduce the amount of light that is transmitted through the lens both horizontally and vertically. But when you choose polarized lenses, the glasses absorb horizontal light waves, while still allowing vertical waves to pass through. Therefore the light only travels in one direction through polarized lenses which then eliminates glare. However, the UV Protection remains the same.
So, the answer is YES! And you can thank us for making your road trips and boating experience better.
The one you have
The one you need
The one you want
And all that we have viz Aviator, Cat Eye, Wayfarer, Pilot, and lot more.
Sunglasses are categorized based on the style, lens coating, shape of the frame, and reason to use. So, don’t worry, we have you covered!
Not technically. Just trust us!
However please do know that our sunglasses are UV 400 which guarantees ultimate protection.
Yes, just like us, even sunglasses wear out. They lose the UV protection layering eventually depending on the amount of time they have been exposed to the sun and also if they are not well taken care of (tips in 10).

Yes, you certainly do. We consume a world of reflected light that is constantly moving and in flux. Polarized lenses channel this reflected light, reduces its movement and thus provides more visual clarity and definition. Also, polarized lenses reduce eye fatigue that is a direct trigger for headaches.
Not necessarily. These are two different concepts. UV Protected lenses are designed to block ultraviolet rays and to reduce the overall brightness of the light reaching your eyes, however, traditional UV lenses do not reduce glare.
Polarized glasses on other hand feature a special filter that is specially designed to reduce glare from reflected light that interferes with vision.
Nevertheless, it is always best that you opt for the best of both worlds. All our polarized sunglasses are UV protected / UV400*
Cheap/Unbranded Sunglasses may not harm your eyes but at the same time, they do not possess the necessary qualities like UV Protection, Polarization, Ideal Lens Quality, etc. The manufacturing of these glasses is not subjected to strict QC and thus cannot be verified for even UV398/399.
Hence, it is safe to say that unbranded/cheap sunglasses may not cater to your protection requirements even though they may check right on fashion appeal.
MacV sunglasses, on the other hand, are subjected to stringent quality control measures that ticks on all parameters be it style or functionality.
The one that provides you ultimate satisfaction in terms of style and functionality.
The one that balances quality and price in a way that there is no compromise.
And we are tempted to say that’s us but we would want to hear it from you.
Dark colors (brown/gray/green) are ideal for everyday use and most outdoor activities. Darker shades are intended primarily to cut through the glare and reduce eyestrain in moderate-to-bright conditions.
Light colors (yellow/gold/amber/rose/vermillion) excel in moderate- to low-level light conditions. They are often great for skiing, snowboarding and other snow sports. They provide excellent depth perception, enhance contrasts in tricky, flat-light conditions, improve the visibility of objects and make your surroundings appear brighter.
In the end, it’s your preference of style + functionality on which your lens color shall be based.
Although grey and green lenses have their own benefits, and colorful lenses are fun, copper and amber tints increase contrast, making them the ideal options for driving. If you’re aiming for a crisp, clear view, we suggest finding a pair of shades with amber or copper lenses/tints – and extra points if they’re polarized.
All polarizers are the same, so if a pair of sunglass really is polarized, it won’t do anything different than a more expensive pair of polarized glasses. However, cheap sunglasses are often not polarized, only tinted. That will reduce the brightness of light, but won’t eliminate reflections.
Yes, if you know the worth of your eyes, and worth of avoiding headaches and migraines; and consider the safety especially while you are on driver’s seat; you will agree that Polarized lenses are certainly worth it 😉
At MacV, we offer glasses in all sizes – small, medium, and large. You can try the frames at our stores and decide what fits you best. ~80-90% of our customers find a medium size frame to be the best fit.
Quality is a non-negotiable aspect of our products. Our plastic frames are made from the best quality acetate and our metal frames are made only from steel or titanium – this makes our glasses corrosion and breakage resistant.
Yes. We have trained opticians that do a quality check of all of our frames and lenses prior to shipping them to you.
Yes, you will have 14 days after receipt of your glasses to return them and obtain a full refund or decide to replace them with an identical pair if you encounter problems. See the Return policy section for more details.
Look for sunglasses that protect you from 99 to 100 percent of both UVA and UVB light. This includes those labelled as “UV 400,” which blocks all light rays with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers.
Yes, UV 400 protection means that your glasses protect your eyes from both UVA and UVB radiation. Therefore UV 400 is the safest bet.
Go for big frames and wrap-around styles as they provide extra UV protection by blocking rays that come in from the side. Also, make sure that you get lenses with UV coating, and polycarbonate lenses have built-in UV coverage.
