Can I remove the original lens and put my own prescription lens for my 11 year old son. Do the lenses come off from the front or the back (face side)

I bought these to do exactly the same thing. At the optic shop they told me it is possible. However my 5 years old son found them too hard on his nose so he didn't want to use them.

Yes you can. In fact, i did it with my 9 year old son, and it works pretty good. I recommended.

These are inexpensive goggles that can fit OVER your sons glasses. They are not the 500 prescription versions

I'm not sure if replacement lenses individually are available I can say this. I contacted the company about 2 year after I owned them because one of the nose pieces fell off and I wanted to buy a new set. Instead of selling me a new set of noes pieces they sent me a whole new set of glasses lenses and all. I would highly recommend them. Great glasses for the price.

You would have to check with your optometrist to see if they can craft the lenses to fit. I have two pair of these, one with plastic and one with perforated steel. It is rather difficult to get the lens out and back in because there is no screw or anything in the frame. The plastic is probably more pliable at elevated temperatures, which could be used to pop the lens out and back in. They were not designed to have the lenses removed.

Hello Kevin. Yes, it comes with lenses and I understand you can change them with prescription. The frame is made of a sort of plastic.

No. You will have to replace the original lens with prescription lens as I did mine. So far it has worked for me. I am happy with it.

It seems like theyre sending out a different product every time. You should be able to gently bend the outer frame and dislodge the lenses. Mine came with parta that arent for anything, amd the instructions were definitely not in English

You don't need to replace the lenses as these fit over our OWN prescription glasses. They work well and don't look or feel bulky.

How do you pull them out? It seems like you would need super small tweezers or something but how do you do it without damaging the lens itself?

Yes the lens the top is made from glass and is so easy to repleace it becouse is stick with double tape so just heat it up with hair dryer and u can take it out and repleace it in same way with double tape or u can use glue as well

It is removable. I can't find the lenses on their own on Amazon tho. I wish I'd purchased the XD5 with the four lenses to begin with: http://www.amazon.com/Optrix-PhotoProX-Waterproof-Interchangeable-Photography/dp/B00EGWHTUC/ref=pd_cp_cps_0

My son has this case, and he says that you can remove the lens if you want to change. He has used it with slow motion effect while skiing, and has some pretty cool pics! Be sure to get a floating wrist strap just incase.

The lens is not glass. You should be able to very carefully remove the lenses.

It is possible to remove the shade yourself (see Youtube videos), but looks very risky. I returned the original one I purchased and instead bought the version that already has the lens shade removed - I use mine underwater with a full frame camera. So, if you have not already done so, this is my recommendation! I have been very happy with the lens.

Hello Matthew, Yes, it comes off and it can be remounted to use with the left eye. It's very easy to remove and swap over to use on the left side. Hope that helps.

Hello Cynthia. Just bend a little the lens to insert or extract from the right spots as the lens have a small cut to adapt perfectly. It's easy.Good luck!

Take off the lens, put your thumbs on both sides of the rx frame and push with equal pressure on both sides. It will come out without anything being broken.
