Category guide

Color is only one part of a sun-lens specification.

Sun-lens purchasing may involve non-polarized tinted blanks, polarized lenses, plano programs, prescription routes, solid colors, gradients, and multiple base curves. Similar-looking samples can perform differently when polarization, UV transmission, color consistency, and frame wrap are measured.

A repeatable order starts with a physical color reference or transmission target, then fixes material, polarization, base curve, diameter, coating, gradient position, UV requirement, and tolerances. Pair matching and batch-to-batch color control should be included in sample approval.

Buying factors

Define the variables before sampling.

A focused specification makes supplier comparison, sample approval, and repeat purchasing more reliable.

PolarizationState whether the program is polarized and define efficiency, axis tolerance, and verification method.

Color controlApprove solid or gradient color against a physical sample, swatch, or measurable transmission target.

Frame geometryMatch base curve and usable diameter to frame wrap, shape, decentration, and edging allowance.

UV and coatingSpecify the destination-market UV standard and any hard coat, mirror, AR, or hydrophobic requirement.

Category FAQ

Questions buyers ask before requesting samples.

Are all tinted lenses polarized?

No. Tint controls color and visible transmission, while polarization uses a filter to reduce selected reflected glare. Polarization must be specified separately.

How should a custom color be approved?

Use a physical sample, color swatch, or target transmission data, then approve color depth, hue, pair consistency, and permitted tolerance under agreed lighting.

Why does base curve matter?

Base curve affects how the blank matches frame wrap and can influence optics, appearance, edging allowance, and finished assembly.

Can gradient position be customized?

Selected gradient programs can be discussed. The color depth, transition position, direction, usable diameter, and frame shape should be approved together.

What should be tested on polarized samples?

Check polarization efficiency, axis orientation, optical quality, color, visible and UV transmission, surface cosmetics, and compatibility with the intended frame geometry.
