DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Elle EL13512C Clip On transforms your Elle EL13512 prescription eyeglasses into sunglasses in seconds. This magnetic clip-on attachment features a round acetate frame available in three versatile colors—Green, Black, and Rose—each designed to complement the matching base frame perfectly.

Instant Sun Protection for Your Prescription Glasses

Designed specifically for the Elle EL13512 eyeglasses, this clip-on uses a secure magnetic attachment system that snaps into place over your prescription lenses. The full-rim acetate construction matches the quality and style of your base frame, creating a cohesive look that doesn't compromise on fashion. The round lens shape provides generous coverage while the single bridge design ensures a stable, secure fit that won't slip during daily wear.

Clip-on sunglasses offer a practical advantage over buying separate prescription sunglasses—you get UV protection without the expense or hassle of carrying multiple pairs. The lightweight acetate material keeps the clip-on comfortable for all-day wear, and the magnetic system means you can attach or remove it with one hand. Keep one in your car, one at the office, and you'll always be ready when you step outdoors.

Who It's For

This unisex clip-on works for anyone who owns the Elle EL13512 prescription frame and wants a budget-friendly sun solution. The three color options let you match your mood or outfit—classic Black for versatility, Green for a fresh look, or Rose for a softer, feminine touch. At under $50, it's an affordable way to extend the functionality of eyeglasses you already love.

Important: This is a clip-on accessory only. The Elle EL13512 prescription eyeglasses are sold separately. If you need the complete eyewear system, add both the base frame and this clip-on to your cart.

Product arrived late

I got exactly what I ordered and couldn’t be happier. However the website said shipping in 7-10 days. It was closer to 7 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this clip-on work with any eyeglasses, or only the Elle EL13512 frame?

The Elle EL13512C clip-on is designed specifically to fit the Elle EL13512 eyeglasses frame. It uses a magnetic attachment system that aligns with the base frame's design. It will not fit other eyeglass models, even within the Elle brand. If you own a different Elle frame, look for the corresponding clip-on model number.

Are the Elle EL13512 prescription eyeglasses included with this clip-on?

No, this is a clip-on accessory only. The Elle EL13512 prescription eyeglasses are sold separately. You'll need to purchase both the base frame and the clip-on if you want the complete eyewear system. Many customers buy the clip-on as a replacement or to add a second color option to frames they already own.

How do magnetic clip-on sunglasses attach to my glasses?

Magnetic clip-ons use small magnets embedded in the clip-on frame that align with corresponding magnetic points on your prescription eyeglasses. You simply hold the clip-on in front of your glasses and it snaps into place with a secure magnetic connection. Most designs allow one-handed attachment and removal, making them convenient to use while driving or on the go.

Do clip-on sunglasses provide UV protection?

Yes, quality clip-on sunglasses are designed to block harmful UVA and UVB rays, typically offering UV400 protection. The tinted lenses also reduce glare and brightness for more comfortable vision outdoors. Clip-ons provide the same sun protection as regular sunglasses, making them a practical alternative to prescription sunglasses.

What are the advantages of clip-on sunglasses over prescription sunglasses?

Clip-ons are significantly more affordable than prescription sunglasses and eliminate the need to carry multiple pairs of glasses. They're lightweight, easy to store in a pocket or purse, and can be quickly attached or removed as lighting conditions change. If they get lost or damaged, replacement is inexpensive compared to ordering new prescription sunglasses.

Can I get prescription lenses in the Elle EL13512C clip-on?

No, clip-on sunglasses are non-prescription accessories designed to attach over your existing prescription eyeglasses. The clip-on provides sun protection and glare reduction, while your base frame holds your prescription lenses. This design allows you to use one prescription frame for both indoor and outdoor wear.

Choosing the Right Elle Clip-On System

The Elle EL13512C Clip On is part of a coordinated eyewear system where each clip-on is precision-matched to a specific base frame. Understanding the differences helps you build the right combination for your needs.

Elle EL13512C vs. Elle EL13510C and EL13511C Clip-Ons

All three clip-ons share the same $49.59 price point and use the same magnetic attachment technology, but each is designed exclusively for its corresponding base frame. The EL13512C features a round lens shape that complements the EL13512 base frame, while the EL13510C and EL13511C are cut to match their respective frame shapes. You cannot interchange these clip-ons between different base frames—the magnetic alignment and lens dimensions are model-specific.

If you're deciding between these clip-ons, your choice is really about which base frame style suits your face shape and personal taste. The EL13512's round design offers a classic, versatile look that works well on oval and square face shapes, while the EL13511's semi-cat-eye silhouette adds a more feminine, retro-inspired touch.

Clip-On vs. Base Frame: Building Your Complete System

The Elle EL13512 Eyeglasses base frame is the foundation of this system, priced at $107.06 and ready for your prescription lenses. The clip-on is an add-on accessory at $49.59. Together, you're investing around $156 for a complete prescription eyewear solution that transitions from indoor to outdoor use—still significantly less than buying separate prescription eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses.

Many customers buy the base frame first with their prescription, then add the clip-on later. Others purchase multiple clip-on colors (Green, Black, Rose) to match different outfits or occasions. The modular system gives you flexibility without the expense of multiple prescription pairs.

Our recommendation: If you already own the Elle EL13512 prescription frame, the EL13512C clip-on is an affordable way to add sun protection. If you're starting from scratch, budget for both the base frame and clip-on to get the full indoor/outdoor functionality this system is designed to provide.
