Shop by Brand
Ray-Ban
The world's best-selling sunglass brand for good reason. Ray-Ban has defined cool since 1937 — from the Aviator worn by US Air Force pilots to the Wayfarer that dominated pop culture for decades. Classically proportioned, endlessly wearable, and built to last. Styles include the New Wayfarer, Clubmaster, Round, Hexagonal, and more — all with UV400 protection and authentic Italian craftsmanship.
Prada
Italian luxury at its most precise. Prada sunglasses are an exercise in architectural thinking — clean lines, premium acetate, and a silhouette that sits perfectly between timeless and thoroughly modern. Whether you're drawn to the bold geometry of the PR 17WS or the refined simplicity of the PR 10ZS, Prada eyewear is an investment in enduring style.
Miu Miu
Prada's playful, fiercely feminine sister brand. Miu Miu sunglasses celebrate individuality — oversized shields, gold metals, tortoiseshell acetate — designed for women who set trends rather than follow them. Crafted in Italy to the same exacting standards as Prada, every Miu Miu frame is a collector's piece.
Tom Ford
Hollywood glamour meets Italian craftsmanship. Tom Ford sunglasses are worn by celebrities, shot by photographers, and coveted by anyone who appreciates genuinely beautiful design. Oversized, dramatic, and unmistakably luxurious — a statement from the first second you put them on.
Polo Ralph Lauren
Preppy sophistication with an all-American sensibility. Polo Ralph Lauren sunglasses are built for the person who values understated quality — clean shapes, premium materials, and a versatility that works as well at the yacht club as at brunch. A wardrobe staple done properly.
Swarovski
For those who love a little sparkle. Swarovski sunglasses feature crystal-embellished frames that catch the light beautifully — bold, glamorous statement pieces for occasions that call for something special. Austrian precision meets high-fashion design.
Buying Guide
UV400 Protection
The only thing that actually shields your eyes from sun damage. Every pair we sell carries full UV400 certification, blocking 100% of UVA and UVB radiation. Fashion-only sunglasses without UV protection can actually do more harm than wearing nothing — dark lenses cause pupils to dilate, letting in more UV if the lenses don't filter it.
Frame Fit
A sunglass frame should sit comfortably on the bridge of your nose without pinching, with temples resting lightly on your ears. Lens width matters too: oversized frames (70mm+) offer more coverage; compact frames (48–54mm) suit narrower faces.
Lens Quality
Authentic designer lenses are optically precise — no distortion when you look through them. Cheap counterfeit lenses cause eye strain over time. Buying from a registered optometry practice like Eye Concepts guarantees optical-grade lenses.
Frame Materials
Acetate frames are lightweight, hypoallergenic, and available in rich colour patterns. Metal frames are durable, thin-profile, and adjust easily. Many premium frames use a combination of both.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are designer sunglasses worth it?
Yes. Authentic designer sunglasses use optically precise lenses that reduce eye strain compared to cheap alternatives. The frames are made from higher-grade materials that hold their shape and last years rather than months. And the UV400 certification on genuine designer eyewear is verified, not just printed on a sticker.
How do I know if sunglasses are authentic?
Buy from an authorised retailer like Eye Concepts Australia. Authentic designer sunglasses come with a branded case, cleaning cloth, and authenticity documentation. The engraving on temples and lenses is clean and precise. If you're ever unsure, our optometry team can verify authenticity in store.
Can designer sunglasses be fitted with prescription lenses?
Many designer sunglass frames can be glazed with prescription sun lenses. Visit us in store at Eye Concepts and our optometrists can advise which frames are suitable and fit your prescription lenses professionally.
What's the difference between UV400 and polarised lenses?
UV400 protection blocks harmful UVA and UVB rays — essential for eye health. Polarised lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, roads, and glass — improving visual comfort especially while driving or near water. Many premium sunglasses offer both.
Do you ship sunglasses Australia-wide?
Yes. We ship to all states and territories from our Sydney base. Orders are typically dispatched within 1–2 business days.
Can I try sunglasses on in store?
Absolutely. Visit Eye Concepts in Sydney to browse our full range in person, get professional fitting advice, and try frames on before purchasing. Our team can help you find a frame that suits your face shape and lifestyle.
