How to Choose Tinted Glasses (And why you SHOULD)

[@thespectaclefactory]

Can I just say it was pretty trippy wearing all of your prescriptions! I wonder if anybody has looked through so many different ones in such a short space of time before!? I was spaced out for a while afterwards 😂

[@paparazzina1]

Robert, I admire you for that, I can understand that feeling.

[@kellyfaux1167]

[@embergrit2305]

Lol I was wondering how you were handling so many different prescriptions. Was impressed how you kept so composed as if it wasn’t affecting your vision at all.

I would have been nauseated, thank you for sacrificing yourself 😅

[@pgknighton]

Hi Robert. I've only discovered your channel in the last couple of days but I'm hooked. It's wonderful to find someone so passionate about all things 'spectacles'..... You've certainly 'opened my eyes' to the many aspects of coatings, tints, gradients, frames and all things to do with glasses. Something many of us take for granted and are not fully aware of just what we can ask our optometrist to do in order to enhance our experience and style. Thank you again.

[@ilyasfulat9340]

Ditto

[@thespectaclefactory]

Thank you so much for this lovely comment.

[@johnmichaelarnaud]

You are so good at this. I've learned a lot about what's available outside the mainstream retail stream! I'm sure most of these specs are out of my league, but maybe it's something to save for as a true statement piece down the road. Those Porsche aviators are INCREDIBLE.

[@thespectaclefactory]

I appreciate that!

[@blackcat9100]

I totally agree with you on the amber tint, it's so stylish and luxurious and so soft on the eyes. I have a pair of Moscots made of chunky acetate. Both the frame and the gradient lens are exactly this tint of amber . You won't believe how many people asked me where I got them, not counting the curious glanses from strangers I get every time I put them on. On a more sour note though, most people get taken aback when I tell them how much I paid for them! Still, they are definitely a jewel in my collection.

[@thespectaclefactory]

All that matters is that you think they're worth it. Moscot isn't even a particularly expensive brand (not down-playing the value BTW), so don't feel bad! And so glad to hear your feedback on this incredible tint.

[@blackcat9100]

@@thespectaclefactory I know Robert. I am from North America. RayBan rules here, even for glasses for vision. I can see you cringe, haha! Therefore anything over $200 sounds like a big deal . Thank you for your input. You're the best vision consultant I happened to come across on KZbin.

I honestly see better with non polarised orange/red warm coloured amber tint. It contrasts every colour beautifully, making everything stand out and making everything look like it is under a warm sunset. Really useful while driving in both bright and overcast conditions.

Man, videos like this one are so helpful to customers who need to understand optical technologies, and how you can create personal style choices. You've taught me a lot and can't wait to try on my new glasses. Bravo Robert!

Great video. Totally agree that photochromic lenses is the way forward. For sure! Ideally with some mirror. The only thing that I don't like about them is that they don't get as dark when wearing a hat.

You guys have been busy! These are all absolutely stunning. But I must say that magma orange is something else. Of course, no bias at all! 😜

[@thespectaclefactory]

Naturally since it's a tint I created 😉

[@markmanc]

I really want to try that sweet violet tint at my appointment! I would never have thought of that colour for a tint and was thinking of something more obvious. Still haven't decided on which Reykjavik Eyes frame to pair it with.

[@iamEricHall]

I like the fixed tint to change the look and the mood. Definitely adds style and shows that you are different from the norm when you step into the room. Picking up some JMM with an amethyst(similar to sweet violet) tint on black acetate around 40%

[@thespectaclefactory]

Lovely!

[@specsbundy1392]

Learned in this vid you did video consultation. Can I do a consultation and send you the frames I own and have you fill the prescription and put all the options you offer to be put on the lenses ?

[@ankumagotra4445]

Hi Robert, do you do consultations online and suggest glasses that will suit ones face, shape, colour, etc. ? In addition, do you suggest tints, which we can then ask for in our own country? I am based in India and have been wearing spectacles since I was 6. Thanks to your videos, now that I am 42, I am learning about tints and various contrasts and combinations. Thank you for continuing to make videos and showing up so many possibilities, rather than the same old boring glasses we are used to wearing.

[@thespectaclefactory]

Hi Anku - yes we offer online consultations for our customers and can then ship any orders internationally 👍

[@polasantkullavanijaya436]

Great video Robert!Thanks for creating an eyewear wardrobe for me. Can’t wait to get my RE Elias and BP Cecil and wear them here in Thailand! As mentioned to you, I have a Reykjavik Eyes Vor (Aviator style). Thinking of a polarised lens with mirror finish for this, but don’t particularly want a fixed tint. Is it possible to have a brown gradient (already have green on my Cecil) adaptive sun and polarised, with diamond flash? How do you think this would fit in as a 3-pair eyewear wardrobe? Or do you suggest some other tint/flash combo?

[@thespectaclefactory]

Hi Pol! Unfortunately the Adaptive Sun cannot be polarised and gradient. But I still think a solid tint with Diamond Flash would work with the VOR, and it would give you another dimension for sure. This pair would be ideal for driving and around the water, which I know is important to you!

[@polasantkullavanijaya436]

I think I got you-Polarised lens has to be non-gradient. But being adaptive sun, it will still vary from 60 to 97% even though it is polarised? Thanks again Robert.

[@TravisBlake-s8u]

Hi Robert, I just discovered your channel and it's amazing! I love your talks about how lens color can affect your mood! I lost my 12 years old RayBans and I missed their specific green color. I've tried many sunglasses with green lenses but not able to find similar green color. First, I bought new RayBan with G15 but this is not even green, this is more grey color..then I tried Etnia Barcelona Polarised HD green glasses - these are very good and pleasant for the eyes however they are little bit yellowish than green..the best green I've found so far was in Oliver Peoples - Oliver Sun model special collaboration with Bruno Cucinelli (this was also very special color (named as "Green C") made only for this particular model but differs from "Green C" color in other models in their lineup!), but I'm missing that "deep water green" color as my old RayBans had..I'm not sure they were made by Bausch and Lomb but definitely they had very unique green color lenses I'm looking for. As you're the expert and you had many sunglasses in your hands do you happen to advise some perfect forest? water? crystal green lenses? They should be made of mineral glass. I loved the mood when wearing them that's the reason I'm still looking for similar glasses..:( I found one video where some guy is showing the old RayBans and it seems it's the color I'm looking for..kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKm9fXp7n5Zkl9k Many thanks and keep doing a great work!

I love this video and just stumbled upon your channel. After being inspired, I went to my Zeiss certified optometrist and asked about fitting my frames with similar ask as what this video shows (slight gradient tint, flash coating, anti glare, photo fusion, etc). He looked at me and said that there’s no way to do such things and began telling me of how tints wear out eventually but that it can’t be done with zeiss photochromic lenses. Basically, I have to stick with the trivex , photofusion, digital lenses. But that they’ll have a slight tint indoors. So, do you take HSA (Health Savings Account) payment? lol

What tint color and percentage would you suggest? I would prefer very subtle, not dark at all, almost none to tell you the truth. The lenses would be trivex, Varilux Series X progressives. Thank you! Appreciate the thoughtfulness to every sentence.

@thespectaclefactory : Hello Robert, I was wondering, is that Amber gradient tint with amber flash coating a Zeiss colour? I couldn't find it. Also, for some reason, here in Belgium, it doesn't seem possible to get their "Fun" range of colours (Magma Orange, Sunset tints,...) with their various Flash coatings. Is that possible? I tried ordering a pair of Magma orange Drivesafe lenses with Sapphire Flash as you have, but that combination is not possible apparently?

I can't help but feel that an Amber flash would've also worked with the Magma Orange on that particular pair, since there's already so much going on with the contrasting colours as it is. Thoughts?

Stylistically, yes, but the whole point of this lens is maximum contrast and reducing as much blue light as possible is essential for that. Sapphire reflects extra blue light away from the eyes

I'm somewhat confused. Dissappointed in my new Cartier Panthere silver progressive computer glasses. I wanted everyday gradient blue tint with adaptive sun with flash. What I received was clear lenses which darken in sunlight ...I believe photochromic with a flash coating. My request seems to be new territory for them. But watching your videos on tinting I'm not so sure what is doable. I thought photochromic lens could be tinted indoors but todays video seems to suggest no, they are clear. The last set of fashion tints on your video do not alter for outdoors. So am I correct that if I want tint indoors and darker outside they should be ordering an adaptive sun lens. Hopefully a gradient blue with a sapphire flash coating. Is this correct? Which lens are best adaptive? Finally, wondering how you work with international customers.

With Adaptive Sun, how light does the tint get indoors? Is the tint 40% or 60%? It seems to my own uneducated eye, that if Adaptive Sun starts at a 40% tint, especially with a gradient, it would be more preferable than Photofusion because Adaptive Sun goes darker? Am I wrong?

[@joebloggs4191]

I thought you didn't sell Silhouette 😂 but seriously my favourite tints out of that lot is the gradient sweet violet. A question regarding adaptive sun, techincally they are capable of going upto 97% dark but what's the reality? I ask becuase Photofusion X is supposed to go around 87% (I think) but I have only seen mine do this when put under a very strong UV test lamp, outdoors it never goes that dark so I somehow doubt that Adaptive Sun will easily hit their maximum darkness. Also why can't Ziess do photofusion X with a fashion tint?

[@thespectaclefactory]

😂 We don't, the Silhouette's were the customers frames that they sent in to us for customisation. In terms of adaptive sun, it would depend on the UV but when I had mine on a hike recently I'd say they went very close to 97%!
