Explore Chemistrie Clips

Sun

Enjoy instant sunglasses with Chemistrie Sun Clips. Choose from 24 polarized colors, all custom made to your frame and prescription. UV protection is built in, with style choices like bridges, magnets and crystals.

Why Chemistrie Sun Clips?

In and out of the car, the office, the coffee shop. Photochromics cannot keep up with that, and a second pair of prescription sunglasses ends up in the wrong car. These go on with one hand.

Reader

Turn your glasses into readers in one click. Powers from +0.50 to +2.50, crafted from ultra-thin Hi-Vex with an anti-reflective coating, custom fit to your frame.

Why Chemistrie Reader Clips?

Your glasses already work. You just cannot read the menu in them. Clip the power on for the small print, take it off when you are done, and stop carrying a second pair you will leave behind.

Blue Light

Protect your eyes from screens with Chemistrie Blue. Engineered with Hi-Vex for a lightweight fit, these clips filter blue light and come with intermediate add powers up to +2.00.

Why Chemistrie Blue Light Clips?

If you tilt your head back to find the screen in your progressives, that is a stiff neck by three o'clock. These put intermediate power where the screen actually is, and filter the light coming off it.

Night Drive

Sharper nights, clearer roads. Engineered with Quantum's glare-control hardcoat, these clips filter harsh yellow light in the 565 to 595nm range, sharpening contrast without unnecessarily darkening your view.

Why Chemistrie Night Drive Clips?

Headlights, wet asphalt, a road sign you read too late. You want sharper contrast, not a darker windshield, and these filter the harsh yellow band without dimming the road.

Migraine

Chemistrie Migraine uses Avulux lenses to filter up to 97% of harmful blue, amber and red light, while soothing green light passes through, so color still looks like itself. Avulux lenses may, as part of a healthy lifestyle, help people living with migraine.

Why Chemistrie Migraine Clips?

If bright light is part of what sets yours off, the filter needs to be on the glasses you are already wearing, not in a drawer at home. Click it on when the light turns against you.

Light Sensitivity

Find comfort in bright light with Chemistrie Light Sensitivity. An FL-41 rose tint made for fluorescent and LED lighting. Light at 20% is for indoor use, Medium at 50% is made for indoors and out.

Why Chemistrie Light Sensitivity Clips?

Fluorescent offices, LED aisles, a classroom under strip lighting. If those leave you squinting and tired by lunchtime, this is a rose tint you can wear for the meeting and take off for the drive home.

3D

Enjoy immersive 3D without bulky theater glasses. Chemistrie 3D Clips are lightweight, flexible, and designed for RealD cinemas and circular passive 3D televisions, with no color distortion.

Why Chemistrie 3D Clips?

Theater glasses do not fit over your own frames, and wearing both pairs at once is its own kind of misery. These clip onto the glasses you walked in with.

Here's How It Works

Four steps. Two of them are yours, and neither is hard.

  1. You Send us your glasses. Shipping's free.
  2. We Set tiny magnets into your lenses.
  3. We Tailor it specifically to fit your frames.
  4. You Unbox & enjoy!

You send the pair you already wear, with a prepaid label. We set the magnets, cut the clips to your lens shape, and send it all back fitted.

Not ready to send your everyday pair?

Understandable. Some glasses you would rather not be without, even for a few days. Start with a new Chemistrie frame instead, from $95 with single-vision prescription lenses included, and keep the pair you have.

Why Chemistrie Clips?

Most people who find us have already tried the alternatives. Here is what is different.

Cut for your glasses, not for everyone's

Your Chemistrie Clip is made specifically for your glasses, from the shape of the lenses to the placement of the magnets. Instead of the bulky, one-size-fits-all look of traditional clip-ons, it follows the shape of your own eyewear for a precise, low-profile fit. Chemistrie works with most frame styles and nearly any prescription, including strong, prism, and progressive prescriptions.

On and off with one hand

Chemistrie makes switching lenses quick and effortless. Click your clip on or off with one hand, without removing your glasses or interrupting what you're doing. It takes about a second, so you can adapt your eyewear and keep moving.

They work where photochromics don't

Windshields block much of the UV light that photochromic lenses rely on to darken, which means they may stay mostly clear while you're driving. They can also take time to return to fully clear once you head back indoors. A magnetic sun clip or a night driving clip goes on when you want it and comes off when you are done.

One pair of glasses, more than one job

Turn the prescription glasses you already wear into more with sun, blue light, or reading lenses. No second pair to buy, carry, or leave behind. Keep multiple clips for the same frame and switch whenever your day calls for it.
