1. Preparation: Ensure your hands are clean and free of oils or dirt. It is recommended to work on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratching the lenses or frames.
2. Removing Old Lenses:
   • Hold the frame firmly with one hand.
   • With your other hand, gently push the lens from the inside of the frame outwards, near the nose bridge or the temple arm hinge.
   • The lens should pop out with moderate pressure. Avoid excessive force.
3. Installing New Lenses:
   • Identify the left and right lenses. They are typically shaped to fit only one side.
   • Align the new STREX lens with the frame groove.
   • Start by inserting the outer edge of the lens into the frame groove.
   • Apply gentle, even pressure around the edges of the lens until it snaps securely into place within the frame. You should hear or feel a click.
   • Ensure the lens is fully seated and does not rattle.
4. Final Check: Inspect both lenses to confirm they are properly installed and secure.

Operating (Usage)

STREX polarized lenses are designed for optimal performance in various outdoor conditions, providing enhanced visual clarity and protection.

• Glare Reduction: The polarization technology significantly reduces glare from reflective surfaces such as water, snow, and roads, making them ideal for driving, fishing, skiing, and other outdoor sports.
• UV Protection: Wear your sunglasses confidently knowing your eyes are protected from harmful ultraviolet rays during prolonged sun exposure.
• Color and Contrast Enhancement: Experience richer, more vivid colors and improved contrast, leading to a more defined and enjoyable visual experience.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life and maintain the performance of your STREX replacement lenses.

• Cleaning:
  • Use a clean microfiber cloth specifically designed for eyewear.
  • For stubborn smudges, rinse the lenses under lukewarm water. Apply a small drop of mild soap (avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners) and gently rub with your fingertips.
  • Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean microfiber cloth.
  • Avoid using paper towels, clothing, or rough materials, as these can scratch the lens coating.
• Storage:
  • When not in use, store your sunglasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage.
  • Avoid leaving sunglasses in direct sunlight or extreme heat (e.g., on a car dashboard), as this can degrade lens coatings and frame materials.
• Handling: Always handle your sunglasses by the frame, not by the lenses, to minimize smudges and potential damage.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your STREX replacement lenses, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

• Lenses do not fit securely:
  • Ensure you have the correct lenses for your Oakley Flak 2.0 XL frame model.
  • Re-attempt installation, ensuring the lens is properly aligned with the frame groove before applying pressure.
  • Verify that you are installing the correct lens (left/right) into the corresponding side of the frame.
• Blurred vision or distortion:
  • Clean the lenses thoroughly using the recommended cleaning method.
  • Ensure the lenses are free from smudges, dirt, or residue.
