Caddis tip
Exchanges ship free and get instant store credit, but choosing a refund instead of an exchange costs a flat $8 shipping fee - swap for a different frame/prescription rather than requesting cash back if you want to avoid the fee. Also note sale items are marked final sale and can't be returned or exchanged at all.
