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.
I had my father in law take the color blind test, and then surprised him with the sunglasses. We all lined up with colored balloons outside and he opened the gift. He was blown away by the difference in colors, and now he’s walking into the grocery stores talking about how vibrant the fruit colors are. He also told use he can tell the difference between a red and green traffic light - before it was only based on the position of the light, and now he can see the difference. He’s really pleased with them and wears them everywhere. After 73 years he got the gift of color.
I had my husband take the Enchroma color blind test in Nov 2018 so I could know what type of glasses to get him. He is a Strong Deutan. I kept putting it off because he does not like to spend money on himself. I finally got the Eaton Cx3 Sun glasses for him and it has been amazing. He looked at my pink shirt I had on and he said, “I always thought that shirt was orange!” He saw that the stickers on the license plate were bright yellow instead of pale green. He came back from a trip to the store and said he was completely sold on the glasses after he saw beautiful pinks and reds in the flowers on the way. I am so happy and wished I had not waited. Now to get a pair for indoor and another for his 87-year-old grandmother who we just learned is also color blind. Thank you!
My sister and I purchased these for our dad for a Father’s Day/Birthday gift. He wears them all the time now and said he can see more colors, brighter colors and more variations in color shades. I’d highly recommend these for the color blind person in your life.
I got the Eton Cx3 Sun version for my dad and he loves em! His only problem with them is that its too rosey with the tint on them!!
