Mirror Sunglasses: Reflect Your Style
- BY Zenni Optical

Looking to elevate your outdoor eyewear? No matter what frame shape you choose, you can add a mirror coating to reflect your style. Mirror finishes aren’t just a fashion statement – they also block out harmful UV rays and shield your eyes from damage.
What Are Mirror Sunglasses?
Mirrored sunglasses have lenses with a mirror finish coating. Since the coating is highly reflective, it greatly decreases the amount of light that passes through the lenses, allowing for better vision in certain conditions, including:
- Water
- Snow
- Sand
- High Altitudes
What Frames Look Best With a Mirror Tint?
Oversized, cat-eyes, hearts, geometric … basically any shape can be made into a statement-making style with a mirror finish.
Small round frames have recently made a comeback in eyewear. These black frames are perfect with a gold mirror finish, giving you that 90s vibe that’s on-trend.
Cat-eye sunglasses are a must for anyone looking to make a statement with their glasses. These modern cat-eyes in pink are perfect with an amber or gray tint. Add a rose gold mirror finish and you have the perfect fashion-forward accessory.
Square frames have made a fashion revival in the last few years. These modern silver and black square frames are accented with a cool blue mirror finish.
One of our favorite shapes with mirrored lenses is the classic aviator. Because of their shape, these popular frames provide even better protection from the sun than other frame choices. Thanks to the versatility of the style, they work with any mirror/tint combo.
Can Mirror Sunglasses Be Prescription?
Absolutely! Any prescription sunglasses from Zenni can have a mirror finish added. Have your prescription information ready and simply enter it in during the checkout process.
