Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why do most glasses break so easily?

Most glasses break at the hinge or arm because they take the most pressure. Traditional frames are glued or riveted together, so if one part fails the whole pair is ruined.

Good Citizens answer: Our frames are modular and repairable. Arms, hinges and clips can be swapped in seconds at home with no tools. If one part breaks, you replace just that piece, not the whole frame.

2. How do I choose the right frame size for my face?

Most people look for proportions that balance face width and shape. Oversized frames can overwhelm smaller faces, while narrow frames may look lost on broader faces.

Good Citizens answer: We make one size that fits most people. If you know you usually need extra large frames or kid sizes, we are probably not the right fit.

3. Are expensive lenses worth it?

Premium lenses usually mean sharper vision, better UV protection and stronger coatings that resist scratches.

Good Citizens answer: Every pair of our reading glasses comes with Carl Zeiss Vision lenses, offering world class optical clarity trusted by surgeons and photographers. Our sunglasses also use Carl Zeiss Vision sun lenses with full UV protection for maximum eye safety.

4. Can I get prescription lenses in eco-friendly frames?

Not all sustainable frames are designed to hold prescription lenses.

Good Citizens answer: Yes. We offer online prescription services with major health fund rebates. Choose single vision, progressive or readers, all glazed into our recycled modular frames made in Sydney. Essilor prescription lenses are fitted for optical precision and comfort, while our non-prescription readers use Carl Zeiss Vision lenses.

5. What is the difference between sunglasses and prescription sunglasses?

Sunglasses block sunlight, prescription sunglasses also correct your vision.

Good Citizens answer: Our sunglasses can be fitted with prescription clear or tinted Carl Zeiss Vision lenses, so you can enjoy perfect vision and sun protection in one pair.

6. Why do nose pads fall off and arms get loose?

Screws and glued pads in traditional frames loosen over time.

Good Citizens answer: Our frames are screw free. The arms click securely into place, and nose support is built into the design. No slipping pads, no loose arms.

7. Are lighter frames more comfortable?

Yes. Heavy frames can pinch your nose and ears during long wear.

Good Citizens answer: We use the plastic from one 600ml bottle for each frame. If you want to know how light they are, hold an empty plastic bottle. That is all it takes to make a pair of Good Citizens frames. Strong, flexible and so light you will forget you are wearing glasses.

8. What is the best way to clean glasses?

Use a microfibre cloth with mild soap or lens spray. Avoid hot water or paper towels, which scratch lenses.

Good Citizens answer: Same advice, and because our lenses are coated Carl Zeiss Vision lenses, they resist smudges and scratches better than cheap lenses, making cleaning easier and faster.

9. Can I customise the look of my glasses?

Most eyewear is fixed, what you buy is what you are stuck with.

Good Citizens answer: With us, every frame is customisable. Swap arms, mix colours, add clips. Change your style to match today’s outfit, tomorrow’s mood or next season’s vibe.

10. What happens when I am done with my glasses?

Most old glasses end up in landfill or sit unused in donation bins.

Good Citizens answer: With Good Citizens, you do not throw them away. You can repair or refresh them by swapping parts, and when you are ready, we take back all parts and recycle them. Nothing wasted, nothing left to pollute the planet.
