DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Cool Clip CC843 eyeglasses deliver practical two-in-one eyewear for men who need prescription vision and sun protection without the hassle of carrying multiple pairs. Manufactured by Aspex Eyewear, a company with over 50 years of experience in innovative clip-on technology, these full-rim acetate frames come with a removable polarized magnetic sun clip that snaps on and off in seconds.

Magnetic Clip-On System

The CC843's magnetic attachment system uses embedded magnets in the frame to secure the polarized sun clip instantly. Unlike traditional spring-loaded clip-ons, the magnetic design provides a flush, secure fit that won't shift during movement. The clip removes just as easily when you step indoors, eliminating the need to swap between regular glasses and prescription sunglasses throughout the day. The polarized lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces, making these frames particularly useful for driving and outdoor activities.

Frame Design & Fit

The CC843 features a modern square shape in a full-rim acetate construction, sized at 54-18-140mm. The black and red colorway shown offers a bold two-tone look, with the red accent running along the inner rim and temples. Spring hinges provide flexibility and durability, adapting to different face widths for all-day comfort. The acetate material is lightweight yet sturdy, and the 18mm bridge sits comfortably on most nose types. These frames are prescription-ready and can accommodate single-vision, progressive, or bifocal lenses from your optician.

Who It's For

If you're tired of juggling prescription glasses and sunglasses, or if your time outdoors is unpredictable, the CC843 offers a cost-effective solution. The magnetic clip-on design is ideal for commuters, travelers, and anyone who moves frequently between indoor and outdoor environments. At this price point, you get dual functionality without the expense of purchasing separate prescription sunglasses, and when your prescription changes, you only need to replace the base frame lenses—the sun clip adapts to your new glasses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Cool Clip CC843 come with the magnetic sun clip included?

Yes, the CC843 comes complete with a polarized magnetic sun clip that attaches to the front of the frame. The clip is specifically designed to fit this model and provides UV protection when attached. You can remove and reattach it as needed throughout the day.

Are these frames prescription-ready?

Absolutely. The Cool Clip CC843 is designed to accept prescription lenses of all types, including single-vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses. You can order them with your prescription through Designer Optics or take the frames to your local optician for lens installation.

How do magnetic clip-on sunglasses compare to buying separate prescription sunglasses?

Magnetic clip-ons are more affordable and convenient for people who transition frequently between indoor and outdoor settings. They eliminate the need to carry two pairs of glasses and adapt when your prescription changes. However, prescription sunglasses may offer slightly better optical clarity since they're a single-lens system without layering.

Are the magnetic clip-ons safe and secure during activity?

Yes, the magnets are strong enough to hold the clip securely in place during normal daily activities, including walking, driving, and light exercise. The magnets are small, encased within the frame material, and pose no health risks for most people. If you wear a pacemaker or similar medical device, consult your physician before use.

What are the frame measurements for the CC843?

The Cool Clip CC843 measures 54mm lens width, 18mm bridge width, and 140mm temple length (54-18-140). This is a medium-to-large fit suitable for most adult male faces. The square lens shape measures approximately 53mm horizontally and 36mm vertically.

Does the polarized clip provide UV protection?

Yes, the magnetic sun clip included with the CC843 features polarized lenses that reduce glare and provide UV protection for your eyes. Polarization is especially helpful for driving and water activities where reflected light can cause eye strain and reduced visibility.

Cool Clip CC843 vs. Similar Models

If you're considering the Cool Clip CC843, you may also want to compare it to other models in the Cool Clip collection. All Cool Clip frames share the same innovative magnetic clip-on technology from Aspex Eyewear, but they differ in frame shape, sizing, and color options.

CC843 vs. CC840

Both the CC843 and CC840 feature square acetate frames with magnetic polarized sun clips at the same price point. The main differences come down to subtle variations in frame geometry and available colorways. If you prefer the two-tone black and red styling of the CC843, that's your distinguishing factor. Both models include spring hinges and are prescription-ready with identical clip-on functionality.

CC843 vs. CC842

The CC842 is another close alternative in the Cool Clip family. Like the CC843, it offers full-rim acetate construction, magnetic clip-on sun protection, and the same affordable pricing. The decision between these models typically comes down to which frame shape and color combination best complements your face shape and personal style. Both provide the same practical benefit: one pair of glasses that adapts from indoor to outdoor use in seconds.

CC843 vs. CC847

The CC847 rounds out the comparison with slightly different pricing ($51.39-$86.14) but the same core technology. All three models—CC843, CC842, and CC847—are built on Aspex's proven magnetic attachment system, so you're getting the same quality and convenience regardless of which you choose. The CC843's square shape and 54mm lens width make it ideal for medium-to-large faces, while other models may offer different sizing options.

Why Choose the CC843?

The Cool Clip CC843 stands out if you're looking for a modern square frame with bold two-tone styling. The black and red colorway adds visual interest, and the 54-18-140 sizing fits most adult male faces comfortably. With the included polarized magnetic clip, you're getting dual-purpose eyewear at a fraction of the cost of buying separate prescription glasses and prescription sunglasses. When your prescription changes, you simply replace the lenses in the base frame—the magnetic clip adapts to your updated glasses, extending the value of your investment.
