    What sits behind this lens.

    Every claim on this page traces back to a document you can open: a spectrophotometer report, a granted patent number on the public registry, or a peer-reviewed paper indexed by the US National Library of Medicine.

    Third-party spectrophotometer readings for this exact lens formulation, tested to EN ISO 12312-1, ANSI Z80.3 and AS/NZS 1067.1. We publish the measured number either way, not only the flattering ones.

    Comparison

    Why not just any blue-light coating?

    Compare the mechanism before you choose. A coating reflects a little blue; a wavelength-selective lens absorbs a defined band and publishes the measurement.

    Before you decide

    Fit, tint and prescription.

    The fitWill this frame fit me?

    Look on the inside of the arm of a pair you already wear. You will find three numbers, usually printed as 52–18–145. They are, in order, the lens width, the bridge width and the arm length — all in millimetres. Match those to the frame below and the fit will be close.

    Lens widthBridgeArm length
    54-16-145140mm42mm

    If your numbers are within about 2 mm of the frame, it will sit correctly. A narrower face suits a smaller lens width; a wider face suits a longer arm.

    The lensAmber or Red — which one?

    Amber is the all-day lens. Luminous transmittance around 50%, Filter Category 1, safe indoors and outdoors. It removes the blue band and part of the green band while leaving enough light through to read, cook and work. Wear it from late afternoon onwards.

    Red is the night lens. Zero measured transmission from 380 to 560 nm, Filter Category 3, indoor use only. This is the one to put on two to three hours before bed, when the aim is to remove the circadian signal completely rather than reduce it.

    Most people who use both wear Amber in the evening and switch to Red in the last hours before sleep. That is the reason the second-pair pairing exists.

    The lensPrescription and lens index

    Choose Prescription Lens and we cut the tint into a lens made to your power in our own lab. After checkout you will receive an email asking for your prescription and pupillary distance — you can also reply with a photograph of the prescription.

    Not sure which index applies to you? Send us the prescription and our optometry team will select it for you at no extra cost.

    Prescription lenses are made to order for your eyes and cannot be returned or exchanged, unless we made them incorrectly — in that case we remake them free of charge.

    Clean the lens with the supplied microfibre cloth only. Tinted lenses are absorptive through the full thickness of the material, so surface scratches do not change the transmission curve — but they do scatter light, which is worth avoiding.

    The Performance Hybrid Series · FL-41

    Elegan Matte Slate Blue

    A softly squared front in Matte Slate Blue, the only color here that is not black, brown, gray or clear.

    Slate blue is a muted, almost industrial tone, and it works on this frame because the Performance Hybrid construction has no thick acetate rim to carry a color: the Ultem body is slim and the titanium at the bridge and temples does the structural work, for a total of about 12 grams. The squared shape runs 54 mm in the eye with 42 mm of lens depth on a 140 mm front, a balanced medium that never pushes at the temples. Lenses are cut from MR-8 Mitsui optical-grade resin. A good everyday choice if you want FL-41 glasses with some color and no weight.

    The lens

    The filter, in measured terms

    • 7.9% measured transmission at 420 nm and 13.8% at 450 nm - the blue band is attenuated across its width rather than cut
    • 12.6% at 520 nm - the green band is attenuated in the same pass
    • 44.2% at 570 nm rising to 100% above 670 nm - the rose band is deliberately preserved
    • Luminous transmittance 41.1%, Filter Category 2
    • 100% UV protection (UV400)

    All figures are single-lens spectrophotometer measurements from our own laboratory reports for this lens, tested to EN ISO 12312-1, ANSI Z80.3 and AS/NZS 1067.1. Individual response varies.

    Fit

    Will the Elegan fit you?

    Check the three numbers inside the arm of the pair you wear now: eye, bridge, temple. Elegan reads 54-16-145. The 140 mm front puts it in the center of the medium band, comfortable on faces from about 135 to 143 mm across. Temples are a full 145 mm, so they suit a standard head depth. The 16 mm bridge is on the narrow side and sits best on a lower nose bridge; if yours is prominent, the frame may ride a little high.

    Shipping. Free shipping to the United States and the European Union with import duties and taxes included — nothing to pay on delivery. Rest of the world: shipping is calculated at checkout and any local duties or taxes may be payable by the recipient. In-stock zero-power orders are processed within 1–2 business days and most orders arrive within 6–8 business days after dispatch. Every order ships from our own optical laboratory.

    Prescription orders. If you selected a prescription lens, our optometry team emails you after checkout to confirm your power and pupillary distance. Lenses are not cut until that confirmation, so a prescription order takes 3–7 business days longer than a zero-power one.

    Returns. Zero-power (non-prescription) glasses may be returned within 30 days of delivery, unworn and in the original case with the cloth and packaging. Prescription and custom lenses are made to order and cannot be returned or exchanged unless we made them incorrectly. Returns are shipped by the customer to our warehouse in Surat, India, and return shipping is paid by the customer. See our Returns policy for the full process.

    Warranty. One-year frame warranty and a six-month lens warranty covering manufacturing defects. Accidental damage and normal wear are not covered.

    Lens care. Clean only with the supplied microfibre cloth. Our tints are absorptive through the full thickness of the lens material, so surface scratches do not change the transmission curve — but they do scatter light, which is worth avoiding. Do not use paper tissue, alcohol wipes or household cleaners.

    Standards. Every lens carries 100% UV protection (UV400) and is tested against EN ISO 12312-1, ANSI Z80.3 and AS/NZS 1067.1. Spectrophotometer reports for each lens family are published on our research page.
