GQUEEN clear-lens pair

These are the frames people buy to look like they wear glasses, and the honest thing to say about them is what the lens is not: it is not a prescription, it is not a blue-light filter, and it will not help you read. What it is: a UV400-rated plano lens in a frame that could take a prescription if you ever had one fitted. The frames are the real product. The square and the rectangular are polycarbonate with metal hinges and weigh nothing; the nerd plain frame is the tortoise one; the pilot is polished metal at twenty grams; and the oversized square, at 69 millimetres across the lens, is the one that reads as a statement rather than as eyewear.

Questions about GQUEEN clear-lens frames

What people want settled before they buy a clear-lens pair.

Do GQUEEN clear-lens glasses filter blue light, or nothing at all?

No, and we would rather say so than let a label imply it. The lens is a plain UV400-rated plano lens. It filters nothing in the visible range and makes no claim about screens.

Which GQUEEN clear-lens frame is the smallest?

The nerd plain frame, at 52 millimetres across the lens with a 24-millimetre bridge and a 139-millimetre temple. The metal pilot is 58, the oversized frame is 55 across a 146-millimetre frame, and the oversized retro square is 69, the widest lens on the site.

Do GQUEEN clear-lens glasses come with a case?

A microfibre pouch and a cleaning cloth, rather than the hard case the polarized pairs ship in. The frames are light enough that the pouch is what most people use anyway.
