Setup and Fitting
Proper fit is crucial for comfort and effective sun protection. The RB2185 Wayfarer II sunglasses are designed to fit a range of face shapes.
Determining Your Frame Size
To find the correct size, measure the horizontal width of your current eyewear from hinge to hinge. Refer to the size chart below.

Understanding Measurements on Existing Ray-Ban Frames
If you already own Ray-Ban sunglasses, you can find the lens width, bridge width, and temple length printed on the inside of the frame temples. These measurements are typically in millimeters.

New to Ray-Ban? A Simple Fit Test
For new users, a quick method to estimate fit involves using a credit card.
- Place a credit card vertically on your face, with the edge aligned with the center of your nose.
- If the card does not reach the edge of your eye, you likely need a Large Fit.
- If the card edge ends at the edge of your eye, you likely need a Standard Fit.
- If the card edge extends past your eye, you likely need a Small Fit.

Operating Your Sunglasses
Your Ray-Ban RB2185 Wayfarer II sunglasses are designed for daily use, offering both visual clarity and protection.
UV Protection
These sunglasses feature lenses coated with 100% UV protection, safeguarding your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays. This protection is integrated into the lens material and does not diminish over time with proper care.
Lens Type
The G-15 Green lenses provide natural vision by transmitting all colors equally, ensuring true color perception. They are also prescription-ready, allowing for custom optical solutions if needed.

Maintenance and Care
To maintain the quality and appearance of your Ray-Ban sunglasses, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning Lenses: Use the provided lens cloth to gently wipe the lenses. For more thorough cleaning, use a specialized lens cleaning solution or mild soap and water, then dry with the lens cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Always store your sunglasses in the provided protective case when not in use. This prevents scratches to the lenses and damage to the frame.
- Handling: Avoid placing sunglasses face down on hard surfaces. Do not leave them in direct sunlight in extreme heat, such as on a car dashboard, as this can warp the frame.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your sunglasses, consider the following:
- Loose Fit: If the sunglasses feel too loose or slide down your nose, the temples may need slight adjustment. It is recommended to have this done by a professional optician to avoid damaging the frame.
- Tight Fit: If the sunglasses feel too tight behind the ears or on the temples, a professional optician can also adjust them for a more comfortable fit.
- Scratched Lenses: Minor scratches can sometimes be polished by professionals, but deep scratches may require lens replacement. Always use the provided case and cloth to prevent scratches.
- Frame Damage: For any significant frame damage, contact Ray-Ban customer support or an authorized dealer for repair options.
