Shadow Ultralight Unisex Blue Light Glasses, 10.2 g, in 5 Colours

Shadow is a unisex plastic blue light glasses frame that weighs 10.2 g, the lightest frame in our range, with a slim rim and a low-profile lens, sold in five colours. The lenses are clear, with no prescription and no magnification.

The Lightest Frame We Sell

Most of our frames weigh between 15 and 25 g. Shadow weighs 10.2 g. For comparison, Modern is 14 g and Scholar is 15 g. Midnight is 22.1 g and Castel is 32.9 g, more than three times as much. If you like a frame you barely notice, Shadow is the lightest pair we have.

A Low-Profile Lens

The lens is 54 mm wide and only 36 mm tall, so it is about two-thirds as tall as it is wide. The front is a slim rectangle with softly rounded corners. Autumn is 46 mm tall. Pacific has a similar height (35 mm) but an oval shape, and it weighs 16 g. A short lens gives a low profile that sits close to the brow, but you see less above and below it, so compare it with a pair you already wear.

Shadow FAQ

How light is Shadow?

10.2 g. Modern is 14 g and Scholar 15 g.

Will Shadow prevent eye strain or headaches?

We don't say it will. Shadow's lenses filter part of the blue light from screens, and they are not prescription glasses. Regular breaks from your screen help more. If your eyes hurt or you get headaches, book an eye exam.

How big is Shadow?

140 mm wide, with a 54 × 36 mm lens and 140 mm arms.
