  • How can i make a payment in the evil eye online shop?

    We currently offer the following payment options:

    Credit card
    When you pay by credit card, you will be asked to enter your credit card details during the checkout process. Your details will be transferred to us securely using SSL encryption. The payment transaction is automatically carried out by the credit card company. Your credit card will be charged immediately and we will process your order. Please note that as of 1 January 2021, all online payments in Europe involving credit cards or digital payment services are subject to two-factor authentication.

    PayPal
    If you choose this payment option, you will be redirected to PayPal during the checkout process. If you are an existing PayPal customer, please sign in using your login details and complete the payment process. If you do not have a PayPal account, you can sign up as a guest or create a new account. PayPal offers Buyer Protection, so you can place your order with complete peace of mind. If anything goes wrong with your order, you will receive a full refund from PayPal.
    As soon as you place your order, the payment will be deducted from the bank account linked to your PayPal account. The benefit to you is that the order is processed more quickly and will often be shipped on the same day (if the items are in stock).

    SOFORT bank transfer
    If you choose to pay by SOFORT bank transfer, you will be redirected to the website of the online payment provider SOFORT GmbH. SOFORT bank transfer is also subject to the Second EU Payment Services Directive (PSD2). This means you will also need to verify your identity using two-factor authentication. If you choose to use SOFORT bank transfer to process your payment, you will be asked to log in to your bank account online. You will then be asked to complete a second authentication, which varies depending on your bank (for example, scanning your fingerprint on your smartphone or entering a TAN code). By logging in, you grant SOFORT access to your bank account. You then confirm that you wish to transfer the payment to us. Please note that we have no influence over the way SOFORT collects, uses and processes your (payment) data. Once we receive payment confirmation from SOFORT, we will officially accept and start processing your order. You will receive further information during the order process. Please refer to SOFORT’s privacy policy, which is displayed separately when you use their service, as well as their statements regarding PSD2.

  • Made in Austria

    Our high-performance sports eyewear is designed, developed and precision-crafted in Linz, Austria. This enables us to ensure the strictest standards of quality.

  • How should i clean my sports eyewear?

    To ensure perfect vision and functionality, clean the lenses regularly with clean water and a soft cloth. We recommend using the cleaning cloth that comes with your glasses, or a similar micro-fibre eyewear cleaning cloth. You can also use a mild soap, washing-up liquid or standard commercial eyewear cleaners. Never rub the lenses dry, but lightly dab them with a soft cloth or leave them to air dry instead.

  • What are the technical specifications of evil eye sports eyewear?

    evil eye sports eyewear offers anti-glare protection and 100% protection against UV rays (UVA/UVB/UVC, up to UV 400). They also protect your eyes from snow, rain and wind. All evil eye sport lenses are made from durable polycarbonate, making them extremely break-resistant.

    They do not provide suitable protection against heavy impacts, hard objects, looking directly into the sun, lamps with high radiant energy or sunbeds.

  • What are the advantages of evil eye eyewear lenses?

    Polarized
    The POL filter gives you extra protection against bright sunlight and strong reflections. Our polarized lenses ensure relaxed vision, preventing rapid eye fatigue.

    Please remember that wearing polarized eyewear may limit your ability to see images on liquid crystal displays such as smartphones, laptops and dashboard displays, etc.

    LST®
    LST®lenses enhance contrasts, equalise rapid light-shadow changes and ensure clear vision. LST® reduces light intensity to a comfortable level and helps you perceive different colours more clearly.

    LST® VARiO
    This combination of lens tints offers all the benefits of LST® and VARiO in one package: enhanced brightness and contrast, equalised vision during rapid alternations between light and shadow and a photochromic lens that adjusts automatically to changing conditions.

    VARiO
    The photochromic VARiO lenses adjust seamlessly and automatically to changing light conditions.

  • Can I order any evil eye frame with VARiO lenses?

    We only offer predefined colour and lens variants per model. Please check on evileye.com whether the model of your choice is fitted with a VARiO lens or offers a VARiO lens as a spare part. You can also check your nearest evil eye retailer.

  • What size of frame would you recommend for a small head?

    evil eye eyewear prides itself in the fact the performance range models come in different sizes. We recommend you best try the eyewear on in the shop as our models also come with angle adjusting hinges and nose pads making the eyewear customisable to your personal needs.

    We additionally recommend using our Virtual Try-On feature on the website in order to first virtually try on the eyewear and the various sizes available in that model.

  • What prescription glazing solutions does evil eye offer?

    All evil eye sport eyewear can be fitted with prescription lenses. We offer 3 solutions: Direct glazing; adapter glazing and the Clip-in solution. Please go to https://www.evileye.com/en/prescription to learn more.

  • What do you recommend as the best glazing option for progressive vision for my evil eye sport frames?

    We recommend that you discuss this with your nearest evil eye optical retailer as your prescription will determine which is the best option for you.

  • Can I have any evil eye lens tint with my prescription?

    All evil eye lenses can be produced to incorporate your prescription. Lens colour remains original to the specific lens.

  • I have high prescription values but would still like to have a 10 base curvature sport frame, is this possible to glaze?

    As each individual has varying and very specific prescription values, we recommend you discuss this with your nearest evil eye optical retailer who can advise on what solution is best for you.

  • Can I order a pair of evil eye sport eyewear with prescription online?

    This is currently not possible. We recommend you visit your nearest evil eye optical retailer by using the online retailer search. The optician can best advise you what solution would suit you best by taking your optical prescription and requirements into account.

  • How does the Virtual Try-On tool work?

    You've seen some sports glasses you like. Now you can try them on virtually on our website. It's a great way to get to know our extensive product range and to find out which of our various models suit you the best.

    To do a Virtual Try-On, take a video of your face using the camera on your device (desktop PC, laptop, tablet or smartphone). Make sure that you follow the instructions on how to move your face. You'll also be asked to hold a standard-sized credit card in front of your face (this is an optional step that you can skip) — please use the reverse side of the card so the camera doesn't capture your personal information. Putting the credit card in the frame ensures that the eyewear are displayed in the right size. Now you're all set to try on models from our wide range of sport glasses that are available to try with our Virtual Try-On tool.

  • How can I access the camera?

    The Virtual Try-On tool will ask your permission to use your camera. Once you have granted permission, the tool will use the camera on your device.

  • Where can I find the Virtual Try-On tool on evileye.com?

    You can find the Virtual Try-On tool on the evil eye website. In addition, all products that can be tried on virtually can be identified by an icon. You can also access the tool via the product page of any item with Virtual Try-On capability.

  • Can Virtual Try-On footage be downloaded as an image?

    Yes, the Virtual Try-On tool allows you to download the video footage as an image.

  • Can Virtual Try-On footage be saved?

    You can view the video recording in your user account for 1 year after it has been taken. However, this depends on the availability of your user account (which varies depending on your country) or whether you have accepted browser session cookies with a duration of 90 days. This happens automatically as soon as you re-start the Virtual Try-On process. The process works with session cookies provided that the cookies stored via your browser have not been deleted in the meantime. You can delete the video at any time. Our software provider ditto Technologies Inc. stores data on their servers for 2 years. You can ask our software provider to delete your data at any time by revoking your consent.

  • Why do I need a credit card for the video?

    The credit card is used to help scale the eyewear so that they are displayed on the face in the right size.

  • How can the video quality be improved?

    Please ensure that you take the video in a bright, well-lit place. You will also achieve better results in the video if your hair is pulled back and your ears are visible. Look directly into the camera on your device and follow the instructions guiding you through the Virtual Try-On process.

  • How realistic are the glasses in the Virtual Try-On?

    The sport glasses and colours are displayed in a realistic way. There may be minor differences due to the way different screens are set up.

  • Can you see at a glance which products can be tried on virtually?

    There is an icon that shows which products have a Virtual Try-On option.

  • Where can I get help if I encounter any technical problems?

    If you have any problems when using the Virtual Try-On, please get in touch with us via our contact form.

  • How can I contact evil eye?
