Custom-made tinted lenses: the new way to personalize your glasses
Colored lenses for designer eyewear in Paris:
Customized to meet your needs
Far beyond simply providing sun protection, they now allow you to fully customize a pair of glasses and transform your look.
The same frame can take on a more minimalist, fashionable, or sophisticated look depending on the tint you choose.
At The House of Eyewear, a designer eyewear store in Paris’s 1st arrondissement located on Rue de Rivoli, we offer prescription tinted lenses, available in both single-vision and progressive lenses.
Thanks to the many options offered by Novacel, each pair becomes a truly custom-made project.
Classic Sunglasses: Timeless Elegance
Some colors stand the test of time without ever losing their elegance.
Classic gray, brown, green, or blue lenses remain must-haves in designer eyewear today. Their strength lies in their ability to add character without ever overwhelming the frame.
Solid-color versions generally have a bolder, more graphic look.
On the other hand, gradient lenses add a softer look and more light to the face.
For example, a brown ombre will instantly give a more chic and warm look, while a blue ombre will enhance a more contemporary aesthetic.
Today, these tints can be custom-made to order and adapted for progressive lenses.
This design allows you to maintain an elegant look while enjoying perfectly personalized visual comfort.
“Fun” Colors: A More Creative Approach to Eyewear
Over the past few seasons, colored lenses have become much bolder.
The “Fun” collections developed by Novacel explore more artistic and fashion-forward shades.
As a result, colors take on a more central role in the identity of each pair.
Certain solid colors instantly make a bold statement. Intense blues, vibrant pinks, and certain contemporary greens completely transform the look of a frame.
Two-tone gradients, on the other hand, offer an even more creative look.
The interplay of colors adds depth to the lenses and enhances the fashion-forward appeal of the frames.
These combinations make it possible to create highly personalized pieces, which are particularly sought after in the world of designer eyewear.
At The House of Eyewear in Paris, these shades are particularly appealing to people who want a pair of glasses that are more expressive, more original, and completely different from traditional sunglasses.
The choice of color directly influences the perception of light
Beyond aesthetics, the shade level plays a key role in everyday visual comfort.
The lighter the tint, the brighter the light feels.
Conversely, a darker tint provides greater sun protection and a more restful visual experience in very bright environments.
As a result, certain very light-tinted lenses are perfect for wearing indoors, on a gray day, or even in the evening, while maintaining an elegant and understated aesthetic.
Other, more intense tints are particularly well-suited for the height of summer or in environments with strong light exposure.
At The House of Eyewear, we use tinted lenses with 100% UV protection to ensure optimal sun protection, regardless of the shade you choose.
Today, this technology makes it possible to combine visual comfort, protection, and personalization in a much more modern take on designer eyewear.
In addition, the various filtration categories offered by Novacel make it possible to tailor each lens precisely to the wearer’s lifestyle, light sensitivity, and habits.
Specialty Lenses: For Sharper Vision
Novacel offers several specialized lenses designed specifically for heavy screen users and gamers.
These tints help enhance certain contrasts while reducing some of the eye strain associated with blue light.
The “Emotion” and “Sensation” tints perfectly exemplify this new generation of technical lenses.
In fact, visual comfort now goes hand in hand with a genuine pursuit of aesthetics.
In addition, these solutions can also be customized to correct vision. This makes the glasses both comfortable and stylish for everyday wear.
