1 Classic B&L Ray-Ban 5022 tortoise shell Wayfarer sunglasses combine the original Ray-Ban tortoise shell shading with B&L green G-15 lenses for a super look that's stood the test of time. It's a style and combination made famous in movies from the 1970s and 1980s like Dirty Dancing, and trust us that there is absolutely no comparison between Bausch & Lomb 5022 Wayfarers and the ones made today by Luxottica. The inside of one ear stem marked Wayfarer and the inside of the other stem marked B&L Ray-Ban USA. In addition, B&L 5022 is impressed in the frame above the right lens, and each B&L lens is laser etched BL near the hinges. Don't be fooled by fakes - vintage B&L Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses are widely faked and have spread throughout the market by sellers who knowingly and unknowingly sell them. The Wayfarer frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple, and each lens measures approximately 1.875" x 1.75" at the widest points.
