“The process was handled quickly and correctly. Prescription is perfect. The new lenses allowed me to continue using my classic Maui Jim frames that Maui Jim no longer supports because they are out of produciton.”
Kenneth, we’re happy the lens replacement process was efficient and that your prescription lenses for your Maui Jim sunglasses turned out perfectly. Thanks for the review!
“Lens are superb. Very uniform all the way to thje edge.
Service was prompt, as advertyised and Jacon provided very good guidance on lens selection to fit my needs.
My 3rd pair and each one was top notch”
David, thanks for the wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you're loving the quality of your new lenses along with our lens replacement service as a whole.
“I had two sets of Serengetti Driver sunglasses with a broken lens in each. I contacted Bolle/Serengetti for repair and was told that they no longer repair these sunglasses. After some research, I shipped my sunglasses to Tajima for new lenses. Turnaround was as advertised. The repaired pairs are great quality and the shade matches the original Driver shade. Overall, a great set of replacement lens.”
Randall, thank you for sharing your experience with our lens replacement service. We’re delighted we could restore your Driver sunglasses when the original manufacturer couldn’t and that the turnaround and quality met your expectations. It’s wonderful to hear the new lenses match the original Driver tint that you love so well.

“This is the second time I’ve done business with Tajima and I’m extremely happy. What makes the difference is communication through every step of the process. Especially the “personalized” communications i.e. emails sent to me that are not auto generated emails, and the fact that some of the emails were actually signed with someone’s name.”
Norman, thanks for the glowing review. We're pleased to hear you've been extremely happy with your new lenses for your Maui Jim sunglasses along with the communication and service we provide throughout the lens replacement process!
“I am so happy that I found this site. So far, I’ve had two sets of Lenses made, they have been spot on and far more cost-effective than my local options. I have another two pairs of glasses being worked on right now. Can’t wait to get them back. Jacob and his team do an amazing job, are incredibly responsive. This is the way of the future. Without doubt.--Update-- Just got my glasses back and they are spot on. Super easy -- very happy, thanks again.”
“I sent my Maui Jim sunglasses (2 pairs) in for replacement lenses due to significant scratches. Tajima's communications are excellent. They provided info every step along the way - received, reviewed for repair, repairs commenced, repairs completed, package prepared for mailing, package mailed. I was never left wondering did they receive them, how far along are they, etc. Glasses arrived in a timely manner. I am delighted to say that they are good as new. This is a much more economical solution to having damaged lenses replaced in favorite frames. Very happy with entire process. Would definitely use them again.”
Regina, thank you for the review. We’re delighted that our step‑by‑step updates kept you informed and that your Maui Jim sunglasses came back looking as good as new.

“Not thrilled with these replacement lenses. The polarization is limited to a narrow strip down the center of the lenses- the top and bottom of the lenses have a broad margin non-polarization, it’s horribly noticeable and is a distraction while driving. Additionally, looking at my cell phone while wearing the lenses is extremely distorted. I’m replacing 580g glass costa lenses. My cheap $40 back up sunglasses from academy sports display none of these issues. My previous costa lenses were scratched or else I would request them to be put back in. New tajima lenses are terrible in lower light conditions on the water in comparison to the costa blue lenses they replaced. Thought these based on a their troutbitten sponsorship(commercial) and would not recommend to anyone.”
Hi Don,
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback, though it sounds like there may be some misunderstandings about the lenses and how polarized optics work.
To clarify:
All of our lenses are 100% polarized with 99.9% polarizing efficiency across the entire lens — there’s no such thing as polarization only in the center strip. What you're likely seeing is the interaction between the polarized lenses and other polarized surfaces (like your car windshield or phone screen), which can create visual patterns or effects. That’s common across all premium polarized lenses, including Costa.
As for distortion, our lenses are optically cast using a patented urethane process and are among the clearest available. Any "distortion" you're noticing is almost certainly the result of polarizing filter interaction, not optical quality.
Finally, the lenses you received match the original 580G in tint color, mirror coating, and light transmission. The only difference is lens material — ours are impact-resistant and lightweight urethane rather than heavy glass. The performance in lower light may feel different simply due to the material or coating preferences, but it’s not a result of reduced quality or polarization.
We always want our customers to be happy, but we also want to make sure the information shared is accurate. If you'd like to return the lenses, we're happy to walk you through the process.
Best regards,
Jacob
Ken, thanks for the review. We’re glad you found it simple to replace prescription lenses in your existing frames and appreciated our customer service and communication. Enjoy your refreshed eyewear!
“Jacob, I was very hesitant to use your service at first, due to all the horror stories of buying from non traditional firms, outside of well known companies. However I must say my experience was top notch from initial order to receiving my glasses. From the simplicity of the explanation of what was needed to secure the order to keeping me posted along the way to delivery was excellant. And the new lenses are great. Now I can play pickleball with my prescription glasses without the scratches!”
Mark, thanks for the review. We’re thrilled that we could exceed your expectations and guide you through every step of the process. It’s great to hear your new lenses are scratch-free and that you’re enjoying pickleball with clear vision!
