Are the RB4179 lenses polarized?

Yes. They are P3 polarized polycarbonate lenses with a dark green gradient tint and 100% UV protection.

Will the 62-13 size fit my face?

The 62 mm lens width and 13 mm bridge with a high bridge fit suit medium-to-wide faces. If you normally wear narrow frames, this one will feel large.

Is the Liteforce frame metal?

No. It is an injected semi-crystalline thermoplastic bio-material, which is why it flexes. It is not the metal frame some shoppers expect from the Liteforce line.

Can I swap the lenses?

No. The RB4179 does not take interchangeable lenses, so the green gradient P3 lens is the only option.

Is $264 a good price?

It is the best new price found, at Macy's as of November 7, 2026, but it sits near the top of the model's recent range. Waiting for a seasonal sale is reasonable if you are not in a hurry.

What comes in the box?

Ray-Ban typically ships these with a case and cleaning cloth. Confirm the included accessories with the store before ordering.

Our take on the Ray-Ban RB4179 Liteforce Sunglasses

The RB4179 Liteforce is a full-rim men's sunglass with a flexible injected bio-material frame and P3 polarized green lenses. The lenses are dark with a gradient and carry a hydro-oleophobic coating that sheds water and fingerprints. The 62-13 size with a high bridge fits wider faces. At $264 at Macy's as of November 7, 2026, the current best new price sits at the top of what this model has sold for recently, so it is not a bargain moment.

Pros

P3 polarized lenses cut glare and give 100% UV protection
Lightweight injected bio-material frame flexes instead of cracking
Hydro-oleophobic coating repels water, sweat and smudges
Full-rim shape holds lenses securely
62 mm lens width suits broad faces

Cons

$264 is high for a polycarbonate-lens sunglass
No interchangeable lenses
Gradient tint darkens the top of the lens, so lower vision is lighter
Frame is plastic, not the metal some expect from the Liteforce name
Only three stores carry it new, which limits price competition

What people mention

WeightPraisedOwners say the Liteforce frame is light enough to forget you are wearing it.
PolarizationPraisedReviewers say the polarized lenses cut glare on roads and water.
Frame flexPraisedThe injected frame bends and springs back, which owners credit for surviving drops and bends.
TintMixedThe gradient darkens the top of the lens, and some owners find the lower part too light in bright sun.
Lens careMixedThe hydro-oleophobic coating helps, but owners say the lenses still smudge and need frequent wiping.
