To remove the lense, pull down from the center.
To replace, put one corner in and compress the lense slighter to allow the other corner to clip in
and then push the center in until you hear a light
click. There should be a graphic illustrating this both with the product and on the web site.
The frame is more easily broken then the lense. That is ok because the guarantee and replacement
program is on the frame. Also, the "Full Metal Jacket" colors (the metallic colors) are usually the
ones that fatigue and crack from frequent lense changes. I have never had any non-FMJ Oakleys break.
That is why I use non-FMJ colors for all of the odd lense colors and I leave my favorote lenses in
the FMJ so that I don't break them.

Haven't had any problems (aside from the nose piece falling off and having to get another lens) I
find the best way to clean them is under warm water and gently applying something like Dial hand
soap to each side of the lens and then drying with an already damp cotton towel (more patting dry
than wiping.) Lens is more easily removed and replaced with the nose piece off (which removes and
replaces easily.)
These things are a blessing after all the red eyes I used to come home with after rides.
