Another point in favor of clip-ons is that they can be easily tossed aside when scratched or broken, and you can still see to all the things you need to without waiting for the glasses to be repaired or replaced( like in the case of prescription sunglasses).

Magnetic clip-ons are very easy to use and require almost no effort to put on while driving or walking. You can operate them with one hand. They often are polarized to provide protection from reflective sunlight and glare. Magnetic flip-ups only differ from magnetic clip-ons in that clip on a little differently. They may not be easy to put on, but you needn’t put them on and off that often during the day. True clips have actual claws that hook onto your frames.

In the case of purchasing clip-ons separately, you have again true clips and also customized clips to choose from. For information on getting customized clip-on lenses for your frames, please visit www.firmoo.com, where you can find all things you need to know about glasses.
