    Designer sunglasses are made by well-known designers like Ray-Ban, Versace, and Carrera. While price is sometimes at a premium, so are quality and fashion appeal. Frames can be plastic, metal, or even wood, and some designer sunglasses are frameless or only framed at the top. Lens shapes can be square, round, or oval, which is a consideration when choosing designer sunglasses to fit the shape of your face. Eye coverage is important as some lenses are overly large while others just cover the eye sockets. Lens color and darkness should effectively block out the sun but still allow you to see clearly indoors or in the shade. Finally, designer sunglasses can sometimes veer from classic styles with embellishments or original lens shapes.
