- Are these actually made for golf?
- Yes. The Flatscreen lens is shaped with a flattened top so the frame sits below your brow line when you look down at the ball. That is the main difference from a standard aviator.
- Do the lenses protect against UV?
- Yes, the lenses carry UV protection. They are not polarized, so glare off water and cart paths will not be filtered the way polarized lenses do.
- Can I swap the lenses?
- No. The Flatscreen uses a fixed whole-frame design, so you cannot change tints for cloudy or low-light rounds. You would need a second pair for those conditions.
- How do they compare with Oakley golf sunglasses?
- Oakley and similar sport brands offer wrap coverage, interchangeable or Prizm lenses and grippier frames. The Flatscreen counters with a lighter, classic aviator look and a simpler build.
- Will they fit under a cap?
- The thin metal temples generally sit fine under a golf cap. The aviator shape is wider than a sport wrap, so try them with your usual hat if you have a narrow head.
- What comes in the box?
- Expect the sunglasses and a basic case or pouch. Optic Nerve does not bundle extra lenses or a cleaning kit with this model.
- Where is the Optic Nerve Golf Flatscreen Sunglasses cheapest?
- At Rock Bottom Golf, for $11.04, as of our latest check.
