Are the lenses polarized?

Yes. This version uses polarized brown lenses, which reduce glare from water, roads and snow.

What face shapes does the Erika suit?

The rounded phantos shape works well on square and angular faces and on most oval faces. It is a softer, slightly oversized alternative to a Wayfarer.

How does it compare with the Wayfarer?

The Erika is rounder, lighter and a bit more retro. The Wayfarer is boxier and reads as more classic.

Is the frame metal or plastic?

The frame is plastic in a polished light Havana finish, with a keyhole bridge.

What comes in the box?

Ray-Ban typically includes a case and a cleaning cloth with the sunglasses.

Can the lenses be replaced?

Yes. Ray-Ban and independent opticians can fit replacement lenses, and prescription lenses are possible through Ray-Ban.

Our take on the Ray-Ban Erika Classic Sunglasses RB4171

The Ray-Ban Erika RB4171 is a rounded phantos-shape frame with a slightly oversized, softened silhouette and a keyhole bridge. This version pairs a polished light Havana frame with polarized brown lenses, which cut glare and improve contrast in bright light. It suits people who want a retro-leaning everyday frame that is lighter and less boxy than a Wayfarer. Against cheaper fashion sunglasses it offers Ray-Ban's lens quality and build, though the plastic frame and hinge feel are the usual weak points owners mention.
