Original Ray-Ban 2198 Bill replacement lenses
If the lenses in your Ray-Ban 2198 Bill are scratched, you do not need to replace the whole frame. These original Ray-Ban replacement lenses restore the look, vision and UV protection of your sunglasses for much less than buying a new pair, with free shipping on qualifying orders and the confidence of purchasing from an official EssilorLuxottica distributor.
Model compatibility
These lenses are made specifically for the Ray-Ban 2198 Bill. They are not universal Ray-Ban lenses and should not be fitted into other frames, even if the shape looks similar. Always check the model code RB2198 on the inside of your temple before ordering.
The Ray-Ban Bill uses a square lens shape with Base 6 curvature. A different Ray-Ban model may have another groove, diameter or curve, so forcing the lens can damage the frame or compromise the fit.
How to identify your model and size
Open the temples of your sunglasses and look at the printed or engraved reference inside. You should see 2198 or RB2198, followed by the lens size. For this replacement lens, the available sizes are 56 and 60.
The size is the first number in the frame measurement sequence. If your temple shows 56, choose size 56; if it shows 60, choose size 60. We do not recommend trimming or filing an original lens to make it fit another size, as this alters the factory geometry and optical fit.

Lens material, protection and lens finishes
These Ray-Ban RB2198 replacement lenses are made from glass, the classic material used for high optical clarity. They deliver sharp vision, a premium feel and UV400 protection against UVA and UVB radiation.
Polarized options help reduce annoying glare from roads, water and bright reflective surfaces. On original polarized Ray-Ban lenses, the logo appears as Ray-Ban P.
Why replace only the lenses
The Ray-Ban 2198 Bill frame is a solid, stylish frame that often lasts for years. Replacing only the lenses is a smart repair: you can save money compared with buying new sunglasses, keep the frame that already fits your face, and reduce unnecessary waste.
At ReplacementLenses.net we have repaired more than 600,000 glasses and processed over 400,000 orders in more than 50 countries since 2018. We work every day with original Ray-Ban lenses like these.
Authenticity and logo
Because this is an original Ray-Ban product, the lenses include the Ray-Ban logo, and polarized variants include Ray-Ban P. As an official EssilorLuxottica distributor, we supply genuine lenses made for the exact model indicated.
In our own optical workshop in Granada, qualified opticians check lenses with a lensmeter before dispatch. We also use professional MEI Easy Fit Trend equipment for precise optical work.
Frequently asked questions
Do these lenses fit every Ray-Ban Bill?
They fit the Ray-Ban 2198 Bill when the model and size match. Check that your temple shows RB2198 or 2198, then select size 56 or 60.
Can I use them in another Ray-Ban frame?
No, we do not recommend it. A similar square shape does not guarantee the same Base 6 curve, diameter or frame groove.
How do I know which size to order?
The size is printed inside the temple. If your frame says 56, order 56; if it says 60, order 60. This is the safest way to avoid a wrong fit.
Are these glass or plastic lenses?
These Ray-Ban 2198 Bill lenses are glass. This helps maintain the original optical quality and premium feel of the sunglasses.
Do they protect against UV?
Yes, they provide UV400 protection, blocking 100% of UVA and UVB rays. That is one of the key reasons to choose original Ray-Ban lenses instead of unverified copies.
Are polarized versions available?
Yes. The polarized options are colour codes 48, 57 and 58. Choose one of those lens options if glare reduction is important to you.
Can I install them at home?
On an acetate frame like the Ray-Ban 2198 Bill, lenses are usually pressure-fitted with gentle heat to make the frame slightly more flexible. If you are not experienced, an optician can fit them safely in minutes.
Example for guidance only. The position and order of the codes may vary depending on the frame.
