Help with CSS arrow links

I'm having trouble with my CSS arrow links. They don't fully show up as arrow, and they also do not constantly stay in the same position on the page.

-Looking for full arrow visibility -Looking to have arrow on top of everything during scroll.

I know I need to keep the position relative for them to be clickable, however, I'm not sure what areas to change. Either the arrows themselves or the articles they are contained within. 

</article>

      <article class="left-container" >
         <a href="" class="left-arrow"></a>
      </article>


      <article class="right-container">
         <a href="T-Shirt-3ajeeb!.html" class="right-arrow"></a>
      </article>

article.left-container {
    visibility: none;
    position: relative;
    float: left;
    left: 5px;
    margin: 14px;
}

a.left-arrow{
    padding: 12px;

    width: 0;
    height: 0;
    border-top: 12px solid transparent;
    border-bottom: 12px solid transparent;
    border-right: 12px solid green;
    z-index: 10;
    position: relative;
    max-width: 100%;

}

article.right-container {
    visibility: none;
    position: relative;
    float: right;
    left: 5px;
    margin: 14px;

}

a.right-arrow{
    padding: 12px;
    width: 0;
    height: 0;
    border-top: 12px solid transparent;
    border-bottom: 12px solid transparent;
    border-left: 12px solid green;
    z-index: 9999;
    position: relative;
    max-width: 100%;

}
