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. Read More
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 son loves it - ears them everyday
I bought these for my Fiance whom has strong protan color blindness. Meaning he has a strong difficulty seeing Green and Reds. These have changed his outlook on life! He has now started to discover new colors he had never seen. Thank you Enchroma you are doing wonders with these glasses!
Totally worth the money I bought some on Amazon from another brand that were about $120, but they were horrible my Fiance said he just saw everything pink when he wore them. With Enchroma he is able to see almost as normal as regular eye sight.
Strong Protan Colorblindness has meant a reduction of red and green hues in my world all my life. Suddenly, especially on sunny days, the depth and richness of reds, greens, and purples has popped. My eyes took a a few minutes to adjust and because these glasses are for outdoor use only, I do not have the benefit of this new colorful world indoors. What I see outside has enriched my life. I hope for future indoor glasses and polaroid versions.
I saw colors that were nearly unbelievable, like I was in an alien world! Now I know what red and orange actually look like, and hot pink is just crazy!
I got the Ventura Cx3 Sun SP Outdoor Sunglasses and I love them. I use them every day now in place of my old sunglasses. It definitely took some getting used to but I was prepared thanks to the information inside the box. I was prepared to be underwhelmed and I was wrong. I love the product, the packaging, the balloons they send inside lol everything and especially now that you can finance without interest it changed everything
