Clip-on Sunglasses for MemoMind One: Attach & Use Guide
You know that moment—you step out of the office or a coffee shop, and the sun hits you square in the face. You pat your pocket, dig through your bag, and realize you left your sunglasses at home. Again.
If you're wearing MemoMind One, clip-on sunglasses are meant to solve exactly that.
They're a pair of gradient-gray sun lenses that clip onto the front of your frame. No separate prescription pair to carry, no switching glasses mid-day.
What Are Clip-on Sunglasses
Clip-on sunglasses aren't a new idea—people have been clipping sun lenses onto prescription frames for years. What's different here is that these are built specifically for MemoMind One's three frame shapes. The claw hook is sized to the frame's edges, so it sits flush without wobbling or covering part of the display. You can flip the lens up without removing the clip, which is handy when you're moving between indoors and outdoors throughout the day and don't want to fiddle with anything. Plus, the claw hooks the frame itself, not the lenses, so prescription lenses are fine too.

How to Attach Them
Attaching sunglasses clip-on takes just a few steps. Once you've done it once or twice, the process becomes quick and intuitive.
-
Fold the claw hook slightly. Give the hook a gentle bend so it's ready to grip the frame.
-
Hook the lower edge. Pinch the middle of the clip, position the claw against the inside of the frame's lower edge, then pull upward to secure it.
-
Hook the upper edge. Seat the claw firmly onto the upper edge of the frame.
-
Flip the lens down. Once both claws are in place, flip the lens downward. That's it.
The video below shows the entire process in real time.
In addition to this article, you will also receive a package with a printed quick-start guide in 8 languages when you receive the clip-on sunglasses, in case you want the official steps in writing.
How to Take Them Off
Removing the clip-on lenses is even simpler. Pinch the middle of the clip, lift it upward, then pull the lens down and off.
Once removed, place the lenses back in their protective case to keep them from getting scratched when you're carrying them in a bag.
When You'll Actually Reach for Them
Clip-on lenses aren't meant to replace a dedicated pair of sunglasses for extended exposure to strong sunlight. They're most useful for those everyday situations when you want some extra shade without carrying or switching to another pair of glasses.
For example:
-
Walking to work when the morning sun is in your eyes, but you'll be indoors in a few minutes.
-
Sitting outside for lunch when you end up at a table in direct sunlight.
-
Commuting when you're moving between tunnels, buildings, and outdoor spaces and don't want to keep switching glasses.
-
Traveling when you'd rather carry one compact accessory than bring a separate pair of sunglasses.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
These sunglasses clip-ons are designed for everyday sun and glare reduction. They're not intended for looking directly at the sun, viewing an eclipse, or providing industrial or professional eye protection.
Don't use them in low-light conditions. Avoid wearing them while driving at night, in tunnels, or anywhere visibility is already limited. The lenses reduce incoming light, which is useful in bright conditions but not in the dark.
Check the clip before wearing them. Make sure it's securely attached and that the lenses are free from scratches, cracks, or other visible damage.
If something doesn't feel right, take them off. If you notice anything unusual with your vision or eye comfort, remove the lenses rather than trying to push through it.
Taking care of the lenses is simple. Clean them with a soft, clean cloth and avoid alcohol-based or abrasive cleaners, which may damage the lens coating.
FAQs
Do clip-on sunglasses work with prescription lenses?
Yes. The claw hook grips the frame, not the lenses, so your prescription doesn't matter. They also fit all three MemoMind One frame versions.
How do I know if the clip is on securely?
Give the frame a light shake. If the clip slides or shifts, it's not seated properly—usually the lower claw isn't fully hooked on. Take it off and reattach, making sure the lower claw catches the inside of the frame's lower edge first. Once both claws are seated, it shouldn't move.
Can I wear sunglasses clip-on while driving?
During the day, yes—they're meant for sun and glare. At night, in tunnels, or in low light, no. The lens reduces the amount of light getting through, which is exactly what you don't want in dark conditions.
Is there a guide in the MemoMind One box?
There is. Every clip-on comes with a printed quick start guide in 8 languages covering attachment, removal, and care.
