Ray-Ban 2188 Original Replacement Lenses

Original Ray-Ban RB2188 replacement lenses

If your Ray-Ban RB2188 lenses are scratched, worn or no longer comfortable to look through, you do not need to replace the whole frame. These original Ray-Ban lenses restore the look, sun protection and optical feel of your sunglasses for much less than buying a new pair, with free shipping included.

Model compatibility

These Ray-Ban replacement lenses are made for the Ray-Ban RB2188 model in size 53. Always check the model code on the inside of the temple before ordering; the general square shape of the frame is not enough to confirm compatibility.

Ray-Ban frames with a similar outline may use a different lens contour, bevel or groove. For a secure fit, your frame must read RB2188 and the lens size must be 53.

How to identify your model and size

Open the temple and look for the printed or engraved reference. You should find RB2188 followed by the size 53. The model number confirms the frame; the size confirms the lens calibre.

The frame colour code does not define lens fit. What matters for this replacement is the exact model, RB2188, and the size, 53.

Why replace only the lenses

The Ray-Ban RB2188 frame is often still in excellent condition when the lenses are already scratched. Replacing only the lenses lets you keep the original frame, reduce waste and save up to 60% compared with buying new sunglasses.

Authenticity and logo

This is an original Ray-Ban product. As an official EssilorLuxottica distributor, we supply authentic replacement lenses so your RB2188 keeps its factory look, including the Ray-Ban logo and Ray-Ban P on polarized lenses.

Frequently asked questions

Do these lenses fit any square Ray-Ban frame?
No. They are designed for Ray-Ban RB2188 size 53. A similar square frame can have a different lens shape and will not guarantee a proper fit.

How do I know if my RB2188 is size 53?
Check the inside of the temple. If it shows RB2188 and size 53, you are choosing the correct replacement size.

Does my frame colour code matter?
No. The frame colour does not determine lens fit. Compatibility is based on model RB2188 and size 53.

Are these lenses glass or plastic?
These lenses are listed as glass. That gives the replacement the premium optical feel expected from the original Ray-Ban lens.

Can I choose polarized lenses?
Yes, but only if you select the M3 – Grey blue gradient polarized – Glass option. Polarization should always be chosen from a variant clearly marked as polarized.

Are they difficult to install?
The RB2188 is an acetate frame, so the lenses are usually pressure-fitted with gentle warming of the frame. If you are not used to this, professional fitting at an optical store is the safest option.

Will my sunglasses still look original?
Yes. Original Ray-Ban lenses keep the authentic logo and the factory appearance of the RB2188.
