Costa agreed to a $21.75 million settlement over its promise to repair damaged sunglasses for a "nominal fee." The lawsuit says the fees Costa actually charged were far more than nominal. Costa denies the claims.

Who qualifies

Florida citizens who bought non-prescription, non-promotional Costa sunglasses for personal use between July 28, 2013 and January 31, 2018 (the purchase group), or who were charged a fee by Costa between July 28, 2012 and January 26, 2025 to replace damaged parts on sunglasses bought on or before January 31, 2018 (the repair group).

What you need

The repair group is paid automatically for each repair that cost more than $11.95, with no claim form. The purchase group must file a claim; supporting documents may be required only if you claim more than five purchases. $6,375,000 of the fund is set aside for purchases. If you are in both groups you are paid as a repair group member and cannot file a purchase claim.

How to file

Purchase group members submit the claim form online or mail it postmarked by January 11, 2027. The opt-out and objection deadline is January 19, 2027. The final approval hearing is March 23, 2027.
