The Prescription Lens Lineup

Here’s our prescription lens lowdown!

Proper selection and use of eyewear is critical to your eye safety. If your occupation, sports, or other activities expose you to the risk of flying objects or physical impact, your eye safety may require the use of special spectacle lens materials. We strongly recommend the use of impact resistant Standard lenses simply because your safety, vision and the health of your eyes is our main concern. Eyeglass lenses made from Basic or Premium materials are not as impact resistant as our Standard material.

Single-Vision

  • For prescriptions from -14.50D to +5.00D
  • These lenses can be made to correct distance, intermediate or near vision as a single focus lens
  • High quality UV-blocking lens materials available
  • Including our premium Anti-Reflection coatings, which are also scratch-resistant and easy to clean

Progressives

  • Our Premium quality varifocals/progressives are made using Digital Freeform Technology
  • These are the upgrade to old bifocals and trifocals
  • If your prescription had an ADD value and you are over 40 these would be ideal for you!

The Handy Lens Add-Ons

Proper selection and use of eyewear is critical to your eye safety.

Blue-Light Filtering

Blue-light lenses filter out potentially harmful rays of visible light that are typically emitted during screen time and by the sun. If you spend a good chunk of time looking at your go-to electronic devices, this lens can reduce your exposure to blue-light and may help with eye fatigue and sleep issues.

Light Responsive

If you’re quickly moving from indoors to outdoors, it can be a hassle to have to swap out your glasses. These photochromic lenses darken when they hit UV light. This tint will deepen as the rays become stronger, making this Pair very practical!

The Murphy

Series

What are Tops Frames?

Add personality to your Pair with hundreds of swappable Top Frames that instantly snap onto your Base Frame. We have tops in unique patterns, bold colors, Sun Tops, and classics!

How Do Top Frames Attach to Base Frames?

The magic is in the magnets. Two invisible, ultra-lightweight magnets (we’re talking < 1 gram), cover the top left and right corners of the frames, firmly attaching the top frame.

What Are Top Frames Made Out Of?

Durable, injected-molded plastic.

How Thick Are Top Frames?

2mm. Our goal is to have our Pair Family seeing 20–20, so our Tops will not obstruct your vision.

How Heavy is a Top Frame?

The weight of a single Top Frame ranges from 2.6 to 3.5 grams, depending on the model. That’s lighter than a teaspoon of sugar! Our Sun Tops will typically add an additional 2–3 grams due to their lenses.

This wide square frame has an oversized, new-fashioned feel. The Murphy looks fantastic on most adult faces, and they particularly suit an oval, heart, oblong, or triangle shape.

Reviews

Murphy

"I received my Pair Eyewear yesterday and am thrilled. I got the clear Murphy frames and 3 toppers. They are very well made and love being able to change the look so easily. A lot of people think they are only for young people, but I'm 75 and it's exciting to be able to change the look without the expense of purchasing multiple frames. Plan to buy more toppers in the near future, plus they make great gifts for my family to give me."

My 6th base frame and new favorite!

"I now have Wanda, Reese, 2 Zuris, and a Payton, but I think Murphy is my new favorite! I thought they would be way too big for my face, but they are the perfect oversized frame! The color and gradient is so gorgeous that I almost don’t want to cover them up with toppers! Will definitely get Murphy in another color in the future!"

— Kristi T. (5/5)

I love these!!

"Well made, plus I can do all my eye makeup and you can see it so well, these are bigger glasses but I absolutely love them! And the sparkle is awesome! I got some sun glass frames to go over them too, looks so good"

— Maddy J. (5/5)

Love the look!

"My 2nd pair of Murphy glasses and I love the new color and mixed metal. I have a very wide face and these don’t look 2 sizes too small for my head. Violet Pearlized Gradient Acetate Rose Gold Metal."

— Sarah M. (5/5)

The Murphy

"I LOVE my new glasses. I got The Murphy and they are great quality and my prescription is perfect. I took them to my optician for adjustment which took less than 10 minutes and they fit wonderfully. I also love all my different lens covers I chose. The process was all pretty easy. I recommend Pair!"

— KRISTIE B. (5/5)

Almost perfect 🥲

"I love The Murphy frame! The fit is perfect and the magnetic system is great — even the black topper looks super sleek. I gave 4 stars only because the tortoise topper looks a bit cheap up close, you can tell the pattern is printed. Would love a more translucent / layered tortoise option. Otherwise, obsessed!"

— Richmon R. (4/5)

Spruce Murphy

"I love my new Murphy glasses in spruce! I’ve been so eager for this color since it was released, and waited on a second pair until the stars (my insurance and updated prescription, lol) aligned. I have a large head (unfortunately *not* due to a massive brain) and high cheekbones: I feel the Murphy shape and size does a nice job balancing out my head and face! My only complaint so far is that my cute top frames (3) don’t sit flush to the base frames, so the magnet attachment isn’t very secure as a result. The gapping is only visible to me, but the other consequence is that it’s very easy to knock the top frames askew, or completely off, when I adjust my glasses (or reach up to touch them at all with toppers on). The problem isn’t enough to make me remove more than one star: the glasses are beautiful and so are the toppers: but I’d love to see this issue addressed!"

— Jillian G. (4/5)

The best glasses I’ve ever owned

"I love these glasses so much. They come in my favorite color, lavender. And all the different options for toppers makes it fun to match my mood every day and truly express myself."

— Brittany G. (5/5)

Love them.

"I ordered glasses with no-line progressive bifocals and a few tops. I did not have the highest of hopes that they would be ready to wear right out of the box, thinking the prescription would be "off" or the frames would need to be adjusted. Well! I received them yesterday and was SO pleasantly surprised. They fit and I can see! Highly recommend!"

— Mary E. (5/5)

If you're sitting on the fence. . . . . don't wait. Order a pair!!!

"This is my THIRD pair of glasses from PAIR EYEWEAR. That's a review within itself. The Murphy frame looks beautiful with the silver accents. They are comfortable and lightweight. Ordering and submitting my prescription was a breeze. I had a little hiccup on my end when ordering but everyone i contacted was so nice and helpful. They made me feel confident that my order would be corrected before it shipped out. Can't recommend PAIR EYEWEAR enough. And the BIGGEST PLUS is the fact that I absolutely love the ability to match my glasses with every outfit"
