Like most eyewear frames, EnChroma frames may contain stainless steel hardware components such as wire, hinges and screws. Stainless steel is an alloy of iron, chromium and nickel. Metallic nickel has been classified as a possible carcinogen and is on the Prop 65 warning list.
What testing does EnChroma perform on its frames?EnChroma uses an independent third party laboratory to test its frames and lenses for compliance with international standards including EN 16128:2015. EnChroma frames are compliant with the requirement for upper limit of nickel migration as specified in paragraph 1(b) and (c) of entry 27 of Annex XVII to the REACH. REACH is a European Union regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals. However, the REACH is not recognized by the State of California.

NOTICE: EnChroma glasses are an optical assistive device for enhancement of color discrimination in persons with color blindness; they are not a cure for color blindness. Results vary depending on the type and extent of color vision deficiency per individual. EnChroma does not endorse the use of the glasses to pass occupational screening tests such as the Ishihara test: these tests may be required in occupations where public safety is at risk such as public transport operators, electricians and first responders. Wearing of any filtering lens including colored contact lenses during test administration is prohibited and may invalidate the accuracy of the results.
I've had them for 2 weeks and I still find new things I never knew had color. I find myself every day wanting to go outside and watch the sunset.
I got these for Christmas and I can finally enjoy color. Since I was young, I’ve always hated sunsets because everyone always talked about how “beautiful todays sunset was” and I would see the sunset and it would look bland. It’s been a dream of mine since I found out I was colorblind to be able to see a sunset it all of its beauty. Now, I’ve had that chance and it truly is the most amazing thing. I can’t thank my parents enough for getting me these.
My eyes are still in the beginning stages, getting adjusted to the glasses, but love my enchroma lenses, frames and colors that are going to change the game.
Love my new Enchroma sunglasses. Wearing them inspires me in so many ways. I was diagnosed with color blindness 50 years ago when I was in the service and never realized how beautiful the outdoor world was until I put on my new glasses.
I love my new enchroma glasses because I was not able to see a full rainbow...only a bit of yellow (I think) or green...but that was it. But now, I see what Noah was so excited about (Gen 9:13)! Now I get it!
