Are the RA5274 lenses polarized?

No. They are brown-tinted with UV protection but not polarized, so they cut brightness and UV without removing road or water glare the way polarized lenses do.

Will this cat-eye frame suit a round face?

The angled cat-eye shape adds definition, which generally works well on round and oval faces. Square and heart-shaped faces can wear it too, though the upswept corners are more noticeable there.

Is the frame metal or plastic?

The whole frame is molded plastic, including the front and temples. That keeps it light, but it will not have the metal-rim look of some Ralph Lauren styles.

What comes in the box?

You get the sunglasses and the Ralph Lauren case and cleaning cloth that ship with the RA5274. Lens cloths and cases vary by seller, so check the listing details.

Can I wear these for driving?

Yes in bright daylight, where the brown tint reduces glare. They are not a substitute for polarized driving lenses in low sun or wet roads.

How does it compare with other Ralph Lauren cat-eye styles?

The RA5274 is one of the bolder cat-eyes in the line, with a thicker plastic front and translucent color. Slimmer metal Ralph Lauren frames suit shoppers who want a lighter, less retro look.
