All FORA eyewear is warranted for twenty-four months (2 years) from the date of purchase against manufacturing defects. Coverage is only valid with the proof of purchase (original receipt/invoice) from FORA or from an authorized FORA retailer. Alteration of FORA products will void the warranty. During the term of this warranty, FORA will replace any current style, which is deemed by FORA to possess a manufacturer’s defect. Scratched lenses or other wear and tear as a result of normal use are not covered by this warranty.

Certain conditions may invalidate warranty coverage including but not limited to:

- Excessive wear
- Visible scratches
- Warped acetate from exposure to extreme heat
- Any type of abuse or mistreatment

For warranty or replacement service, please contact our customer support team at info@fora.pt

Our eyewear is created with high-quality acetates and premium metals, so be sure to take care of your frames. Each pair comes with a cleaning cloth to clean the lenses and a hard case to protect your glasses. Do not leave your glasses in a car in the sun, as the temperature inside the car might cause the acetate to warp and flex out of alignment. Be sure not to set your glasses face down on any surfaces or to expose them to rough textures such as sand. Do not use any chemicals on your lenses as they may strip away their coating.
