Childe for Life – Lens Replacement with The Sunglass Fix
“Let me tell you about the time my dog Luna ate my favourite Childe sunglasses,”
—Lauren Hill
Real Life, Real Scratches
“My lenses got so scratched and damaged by my dog’s teeth I could no longer see clearly. They were unwearable, and I didnt want to buy a new pair.
How am I going to fix these? I tried a few old-school folklore 'fixes' — toothpaste and bi-carb soda remove scratches… no luck.
Then my partner Dave told me about the Childe for Life lens replacement solution, powered by local Byron Bay legends The Sunglass Fix. You can replace your Childe lenses for free in the first year from the purchase date or at a very reasonable cost thereafter...
I jumped on sunglassfix.com and ordered new lenses for my Childe Siren sunglasses. I even upgraded to polarised lenses for extra clarity — perfect for cutting down glare on the water, at the beach, or across snowy landscapes.
Three days later, my lenses arrived with a handy fitting guide.
Hot tip: Always remove and insert lenses from the front of the frame.
It was a bit tricky — my frames are thick and sturdy — but soaking the new lenses in warm water helped. Once I popped them in and cleaned them, it was like having a brand new pair of sunnies.
Woohoo - thanks to Childe for Life and The Sunglass Fix, my favourite shades are back in action."
🛠 Moral of the Story?
We appreciate that these things can happen easily in everyday life but it shouldn't be the end of your favourite pair of shades. 😬
From pets to parties to kids, there are endless ways your lenses can get scratched:
🔹 Cleaning them with a sandy t-shirt at the beach
🔹 Tossing them in your handbag, car or toolbox with no case
🔹 Losing them on the dance floor or in a mosh pit 🕺
🔹 Dropping them mid-run or bike ride 🚴♀️
🔹 Or, yep, flying off the roof of your car (classic) 🚗💨
We know that life gets messy - but that doesn’t mean the end of your favourite shades 🖤 That’s why the Sunglass Fix have partnered with Byron Bay sunglass company Childe Eco Eyewear, to create #ChildeFORLIFE
