SmartFlip Fit & Tech Guide
Love the idea of one frame that does more? SmartFlip’s clip-on system snaps on with a soft click, shielding glare the moment you step outside—then stows away indoors. Most styles pair durable metal fronts with spring hinges for a secure, pressure-light fit. ModaFrames is an authorized retailer, and US shipping is free.
How the clip-on system helps
Clip-on lenses turn everyday eyeglasses into sun-ready shades in seconds. It’s practical for commuting, light sensitivity, or quick coffee runs—no second pair to juggle. If you’re between sizes, start with your usual bridge width and look for spring hinges to add a little give.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do SmartFlip frames include clip-on lenses?
Yes—most styles come with a matching clip-on set for fast sun protection. It’s a simple on/off motion that’s handy for commuting or quick outdoor errands. Check each product’s “Frame Specifications” to confirm the included clip-on set and size details, then use filters to narrow by shape and width.
What’s the benefit of spring hinges?
Spring hinges add flex at the temples, improving comfort and grip as you move. They help the frame recover its shape and reduce pressure at the sides. If you prefer a looser feel, standard hinges work too. Compare both in the specs and sort by “Spring hinges” to find your sweet spot.
How do I choose the right size?
Match your current pair’s three numbers (lens-bridge-temple). SmartFlip covers narrow to standard widths (about 42–57 mm lenses). If you’re between sizes, prioritize bridge fit, then temple length. Use our face-shape guide for silhouette cues and the collection filters for precise width and bridge ranges.
Are these frames lightweight?
Most SmartFlip styles use metal or metal-&-plastic mixes for strength without the bulk. Weight also depends on shape and hardware. Look for half-rim or smaller lens widths for a lighter feel, and spring hinges if you want extra “give.” Check product measurements, then compare a couple of close sizes.
What if the clip-on changes the look too much?
Clip-ons are designed to match the frame’s lines, so the look stays cohesive. Prefer a subtler vibe? Choose slimmer rectangles or softer ovals, then try neutral clip-on tints. Review product photos and specs, and shortlist two styles to test which silhouette you like best.
What’s your return policy?
You have 30 days to return new, unused items in original condition; buyer covers return shipping when applicable and original shipping is non-refundable. Refunds go to the original payment method. Read full steps in our Returns & Refund Policy, then pick your frame with confidence.
Do these arrive with demo lenses and a case?
Yes—eyeglass frames ship with demo lenses and typically include an original case for safe storage. Your local optician can fit prescription lenses. Check the “Case” line and measurements in the specs, then use filters to align material, shape and hinge style with your preferences.
