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.
My husband was one of the first users of Enchroma color correcting sunglasses. He still has that pair. This pair is so much better. The colors are richer and he was able to see a marked difference in what colors he could discern. The online color test was new to us and extremely helpful
My fiancé put on the glasses . He is 48 . He said everything looked “ fake “ but that’s how we see things
Thin and stylish frame yet not as fragile as it looks. Helps with everyday tasks and never loved a purchase more!
Experiencing how others see was a great experience, and I look forward to my walk where I wear the glasses!
I never knew how limited the colors I was actually seeing were. These glasses are amazing.
