About Smooth Black Frames
The EnChroma Smooth Black surface finish is a rubberized material designed to retain its shape and resist tearing and abrasion. This soft, flexible texture provides easy handling for children and teens.

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.

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.
Perfect fit for my 11 year old! I was told by my son's optometrist that these won't work... I decided to take a chance. I'm glad I did! They are amazing! My son is so happy! He can see colour more vivid and is able to even see colours he hasn't seen before (like orange!) We did the skittle challenge... and I am still amazed! A huge thank you to the creators of these glasses. You have changed a little boy"s life forever in the best way possible! I am saving for the outdoor pair... I can't wait for him to be able to see a rainbow! A huge thank you again!
In our Family my Brother and I both married wives that carry the color blind gene. My son has red/ green and my brothers son is completely color blind. They both have the outdoor style and now they are trying the indoor. Life changing
Thank you for such a great product and gift of color to two in our family.

Este fue el regalo del Día del padre para mi papá, a pesar de ya tener unos oscuros le encantaron, no ha dejado de usarlos desde que se los d, dice que se dio cuenta que no veía bien muchos colores, los cuales no tenía idea que tenía problema, él está feliz porque ahora puede ver el mundo cómo lo hacen los demás y entender por fin las diferentes tonalidades de cada color
It is stated that this may or may not work, as well as the first time you put on the glasses you might or might not have an immediate reaction. I was so excited that my family inflated the balloons and were anxiously waiting for my opinion... but couldn't give any. I was little hesitant by trying them for the 1st time, it was at night, really bad idea since I got bummed immediately because the glasses are not cheap, even less when making prescriptions to them! But as all the warnings Enchroma puts out, I gave it another go on the next day. So I go into my car to go to work, my car looked a different shade of red, I smiled. Inside the building everything looked a little dimer (because of the 'sunglass' kind of tint). The artificial light is very different from a ceiling (LED vs others) and from a computer monitor VS phone. So I did a test, I opened Microsoft Word, opened the color palette and naturally, tears rolled down my eyes. I had to take off the glasses to avoid getting them wet and covered my mouth to avoid making a scene around my co-workers. I cried so badly, but happiness started filling inside me.
I also cannot emphasize enough the magic behind the Sunlight. Even though the glasses I got (Colby (Age 10+) Cx1 Indoor DT) are for indoor, they work phenomenally outside.
I will definetely consider obtaining a future pair of Outdoor glasses, or maybe wait unit an Outdoor/Deutan combination of glasses appears.
As all the e-mails signatures from the Enchroma Staff ever received, I can now say:
Colorfully,
Edgar L.
