“The person I worked with, Jacob Rosenberg, was extremely helpful and responsive. Getting timely, clear emails about what's going on is not something to be taken for granted these days! And so we always like to give a shout-out to exceptional service. Thanks, Jacob!”
“The replacement didn’t match my lens. They offered 2 other options, a gold/ brown, and a rose color. I asked if they could be mirrored & they could. The gold/brown might have been better. I chose the rose because I thought the gold/brown looked dark. I have grown fond of the rose.

Dorothy, thanks for the review. Yes, you did have a very unique lens color that we didn't have a perfect match for so we gave you the closest options we had for you to choose. Happy to hear the rose is growing on you!
Jeff, happy to hear you're finding them optically as good as glass and much lighter weight too! Thanks for the review, and enjoy your new favorite lens material!
“Clarity and vision correction every bit as good as Maui Jim and his thieving friends. The brown tint is too yellow for me but what can I do about that?”
“Great lenses. As in they perform every bit as well as, or better than the original Costa lenses. I fished on the North Platte River while using these in my Costa frames. I was pleased with them. Fitment is a bit of an issue. My Tajima lenses are installed easily but are just a touch loose wherein if I clean them without that in mind, they will pop out easily. I may use a touch of glue to take care of that problem”
Daniel, happy to hear you're loving the quality of the new lenses, but sorry to hear the lenses are a touch loose. We can have you send them to us with your frames so we can ensure a perfect fit to your exact frames if you'd like. Thanks for the review!
“I enjoy the lenses. My only gripe would be that the lenses on one side were almost set in very well and popped out. However, I was able to pop them back in. Otherwise I enjoy the lenses and glad to have my favorite shades back.”
Michael, happy to hear you're enjoying the new lenses. Sorry to hear one lens wasn't fully secure, we're happy to send postage to allow you to send them to us to be refit if you'd like. Thanks for the review!
Mike, happy to hear you're pleased with your new lenses. In the future, if you want us to match your original lens color, let us know on the order and we'll do so, otherwise, we simply make the lens color that you ordered. Thanks for the review!
“I have received my Tajima lenses, and they were very easy to install and fit my frames very well. I use these for fishing so I can not yet say how good they are on the water yet but I will test them out in the next couple of weeks. I can compare these to other brands and let everyone know.”
Randy, thanks for the review. They will be the best lenses for fishing you can get anywhere on the market so I look forward to hearing what you think once you have a chance to use them!
“Bought these to replace the old lenses in a pair of Kaenons, so far so good.
Love the clarity, and the polarization so far.
Only 4 stars because I have not had them long enough to comment on durability or scratch resistance.
It is my understanding, that the people behind Tajima, were part of Kaenon at some point, so I was excited to give their lenses a try.”
Ken, glad to hear everything was great on the lenses and you have absolutely no complaints. As for the durability and scratch resistance, they will be equivalent scratch resistance to glass and 5x more scratch resistant than polycarbonate and nylon (plastic), but the will not shatter or crack like glass will as they meet all ANSI standards for impact resistance and shatterproof.
“My experience with Tajima has been fairly good - the wait was significantly longer than expected but the communication was great and the lenses are fantastic quality, better clarity even than my main glasses. Worth the wait, and less expensive than competitors as well!”
Ethan, sorry that your lenses took 3 additional days than originally expected to be shipped out to you, but glad to hear you're loving the prescription polarized lenses you received and that their even better quality than your regular glasses!
“fast shipping and top-shelf customer service. Installation was a bit harder than the website described. You feel like your about to break the frames before they pop-in place. Keep in mind they wont break and use the force necessary to pop out the old and pop in the new. Follow the directions exactly as they suggest on positioning and it is possible to install them yourself.”
Tom, glad to hear you appreciated our shipping, customer service, and lens quality. Sorry to hear you had some trouble installing the lenses, we're always happy to send over a shipping label you can use to send them to us for our experts to do the installation for you if you're having trouble or prefer to do it that way (no extra cost). Thanks for the review!
“Very happy with my lenses, better than the original costa lenses, though they weren't as dark blue tinted as they appeared on the ad I was still happy. Installation was a snap ! Thanks tajima”
Erin, sorry to hear the lenses didn't quite fit perfectly the first time, but so glad to hear you were very happy with how we solved the situation for you by providing a free shipping label so we could reshape and install the lenses into your frames for you at no additional cost. Thanks for the review.
“Nice job fitting my 30+yr young Maui Jim Aviators with Rx lens. The only suggestion is to improve service to a minimum of one phone call upon receipt or completion of each order.”
Matthew, glad to hear you're pleased with your new prescription lenses we custom made for your 30+ year old Maui Jim sunglasses! Thank you for the suggestion. We did email you upon receipt of your glasses and another email when they were completed / shipped back out to you with tracking information. Perhaps we can consider offering to call along with the email in the future.
Mike, glad to hear you're pleased with the quality of the lenses themselves, but sorry to hear the fit isn't quite perfect. We've sent you an email with a prepaid return shipping label to send them back to us with your frames so we can refit / remake the lenses to ensure an absolute perfect fit to your frames.
“Over all the experience was pleasant. I had originally purchased the lenses to install myself but they weren't an exact fit but this was not Tajima's fault. I had purchased some Maui Jim Stingray's back in 2008ish, and the newer stingray's have been slightly altered over the years. I contacted Tajima and they sent me a shipping label to have the lenses corrected and in week or so I had my glasses with new lenses back. So, it was a relatively painless operation but in hindsight I should have just sent the frames on the first go around. As for the lenses them selves, they are great. They are very clear and match with my frames as if they were original.”
