DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Cool Clip CC842 Eyeglasses solve a problem every prescription glasses wearer knows: you need sun protection, but carrying a second pair of prescription sunglasses is expensive and inconvenient. These full-rim acetate frames come with a polarized magnetic clip-on that snaps into place in seconds, giving you clear indoor vision and instant sun protection when you step outside.

The CC842 features an oval lens shape that flatters most face types, with a 48mm eye size, 19mm bridge, and 140mm temples. The frame is built from acetate—a plant-based material known for durability, flexibility, and hypoallergenic properties. Unlike cheaper injection-molded plastic, acetate frames resist breakage, hold their color longer, and adjust comfortably to your face. The full-rim construction keeps your prescription lenses secure, and the single-bridge design sits comfortably on medium to narrow nose bridges.

What sets Cool Clip apart is the magnetic attachment system. Small magnets embedded in the frame and clip-on allow you to attach or remove the polarized sun lenses with one hand—no fumbling, no clips that scratch your lenses. The polarized clip reduces glare and blocks UV rays, making these frames practical for driving, commuting, or any outdoor activity. When you're back indoors, the clip stores flat in your case.

The CC842 is available in three gradient color options: Blue & Demi Amber (a fade from navy to warm tortoise), Dark Grey & Crystal Marbled (smoky tones that lighten toward the bottom), and Dark Brown Marbled (classic tortoise with depth). Each frame ships with its matching polarized clip-on and a protective case. These frames are prescription-ready and work with single-vision, progressive, or non-prescription lenses from our in-house lab.

Cool Clip by Aspex Eyewear focuses on affordable, functional eyewear for people who value simplicity over flash. The brand keeps shapes classic and prices accessible, with a one-year manufacturer warranty on all frames. If you wear glasses daily and need sun protection without the hassle of switching frames or the cost of a second prescription pair, the CC842 delivers exactly that.

replaced broken frame

I broke a hinge on my frame. My optician dids have it. So, she told me to buy from you. She put the lens from old into new frames. Very smooth transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Cool Clip CC842 come with the magnetic clip-on sunglasses included?

Yes, every Cool Clip CC842 frame includes a matching polarized magnetic clip-on sunglasses attachment at no extra cost. The clip is designed specifically for this frame and provides UV protection and glare reduction. You also receive a protective case to store both the frame and clip-on.

Can I add prescription lenses to the Cool Clip CC842?

Absolutely. The CC842 is prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, bifocal, and non-prescription lenses. Our in-house optical lab can fit these frames with a full range of lens materials (plastic, polycarbonate, high-index, Trivex) and coatings (anti-reflective, blue light blocking, Transitions). The magnetic clip-on works perfectly over your prescription lenses.

How do the magnetic clip-ons attach to the frame?

The CC842 uses embedded magnets in both the frame and the clip-on piece. To attach, simply align the clip-on with the front of your glasses—the magnets snap it into place securely. You can attach or remove the clip with one hand in about a second, making it easy to switch between indoor and outdoor use while driving or on the go.

Are magnetic clip-on sunglasses worth it compared to buying prescription sunglasses?

For many people, yes. Magnetic clip-ons like the CC842 system are significantly more affordable than a second pair of prescription sunglasses, eliminate the need to carry two pairs of glasses, and reduce the risk of losing or forgetting your sunglasses. They're especially practical for commuting, driving, and travel. The trade-off is a slight weight increase when the clip is attached, but most users find the convenience outweighs this minor downside.

What is acetate, and why is it used for the CC842 frames?

Acetate is a plant-based material made from cellulose (wood pulp and cotton) that's stronger, more flexible, and more durable than standard injection-molded plastic. Acetate frames are hypoallergenic, lightweight, and resist breakage from daily wear. The color is embedded in layers during manufacturing, so it won't chip or fade like painted plastic frames. This makes acetate an excellent choice for everyday eyeglasses.

What face shapes work best with the Cool Clip CC842 oval frames?

Oval frames are one of the most universally flattering shapes. The CC842's rounded silhouette softens angular features, making it ideal for square or rectangular face shapes. It also complements heart-shaped and diamond-shaped faces by adding balance. The 48mm lens width and 19mm bridge fit small to medium faces comfortably, though the acetate material allows for minor adjustments by an optician.

Cool Clip CC842 vs CC823: Which Magnetic Clip-On Frame Is Right for You?

Both the Cool Clip CC842 and CC823 are part of Aspex Eyewear's magnetic clip-on collection, and they share the same core benefits: polarized magnetic sun clips included, acetate construction, prescription-ready design, and the same affordable price range. The main difference comes down to frame shape and sizing, which affects how they look and fit on different face types.

The CC842 features an oval lens shape with a 48mm eye size and 19mm bridge. Oval frames are universally flattering—they soften angular features on square or rectangular faces and add balance to heart-shaped faces. If you're looking for a classic, versatile shape that works in professional and casual settings, the CC842 is the safer choice. The gradient color options (Blue & Demi Amber, Dark Grey & Crystal Marbled, Dark Brown Marbled) give you subtle visual interest without being too bold.

The CC823, while sharing the same magnetic clip-on technology and acetate quality, likely offers a different frame shape or size to appeal to customers with different preferences or face dimensions. If the CC842's oval shape doesn't suit your style or the 48mm lens feels too small or large, the CC823 may offer a better fit. Both models come with the same one-year manufacturer warranty and work with the full range of prescription lens options.

Our recommendation: If you want a universally flattering, professional-looking frame that works for most face shapes and settings, choose the CC842. Its oval shape is a safe bet, and the gradient color options are sophisticated without being flashy. If you've tried oval frames before and prefer a different shape, or if the CC842's sizing doesn't match your measurements, explore the CC823 as an alternative within the same magnetic clip-on system and price range.
