The Original Pilot has been a favorite of U.S. military pilots since 1958. The rounded-square lens shape and bayonnette-style temple tips produce this signature look for the classic military aviator - and creates a fantastic look for men and women - sized for small faces with a lens width of 52mm, medium faces with a lens width of 55mm, and large faces with a lens width of 57mm. The shiny Silver frame has been the go-to color for this iconic military aviator for decades.
For nearly two centuries, American Optical sunwear has been the choice of US presidents, the first on the moon, and has been immortalized in Hollywood history. Today, in their state-of-the-art American factory, AO produces this iconic style.

GET OUT AND SEE.
It's always surprising to us how many people still haven't had world changing experience of wearing prescription sunglasses. If you wear glasses and you don't want to have to put on contacts to be able to see what you need to see when you're outside, then you're a candidate for single-vision Rx sunglasses. Your world will change. We guarantee it.
SUNGLASSES DONE RIGHT.
Our mission is to get your glasses done right. Period. That means we’ll work with you to return or exchange your eyewear if something isn’t right. If you don’t love the frame style or color you selected, send them back to us within 90 days and we’ll make a fresh pair of lenses in a different frame style or color – at no charge. Sometimes a new doctor’s script is a little off; no problem! Just send us an updated doctor’s script and we’ll re-make your lenses at no charge. That is what we mean by Glasses Done Right.
POLARIZED LENSES TO ELIMINATE GLARE
Say “goodbye” to squinting. We choose to make our prescription sunglasses with premium polarized lenses because polarized lenses eliminate irritating glare to produce a super clear and comfortable viewing experience in all outdoor environments. And all of our prescription sun lenses block harmful UV rays so you can get outside and protect your eyes from the harsh elements.
CUSTOM MADE. FOR YOU.
L&F Rx Single Vision sunglasses are custom made just for you in our California lens lab with state-of-the-art equipment including digital surfacing, in-house coatings, multi-axis lens edging, glazing and finished by hand in the frames of your choice. You’ll begin to experience crystal clear vision as soon as you put on your new L&F premium prescription sunglasses. Right out of the box, you’ll be looking great and seeing clearly.
ONE YEAR SCRATCH WARRANTY
All our eyeglasses and sunglasses are covered by L&F's one year scratch warranty which means that we'll replace your scratched lenses one time for free within the first year.
PREMIUM ANTI-REFLECTION COATINGS
All of our prescription lenses come standard with premium Anti-Reflection coatings engineered to knock down unwanted bounce-back reflections which will enhance clarity and comfort while boosting oleophobic and hydrophobic properties to keep your lenses cleaner longer.
HIGHLY ADJUSTABLE FRAMES
We use sustainable, eco-friendly cellulose acetate for all of our frames (except those that are made of titanium). Cellulose acetate is widely used for premium optical frames because of the unlimited colors and patterns that can be produced, and because it is highly adjustable in order to personalize the frame fit to your head shape. Need to tighten the frame to stop it from sliding down your nose, no problem: gently bend the temple tips to hook more tightly around your ears. Feeling a little pinch behind your ears, no problem: gently straighten the temple tips to relax the frame fit.
