What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 8, 2026
These are wraparound amber-tinted sunglasses designed for people with light sensitivity caused by conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, or cataracts. The amber tint transmits only 15% of visible light while blocking 100% of UV — a meaningful reduction that can make bright environments navigable for eyes that struggle to regulate glare. The frame includes side shields and a top ridge to block light from entering around the edges, which standard sunglasses don't address. They can be worn directly or over prescription glasses, making them a ready-to-use option without a separate prescription. The medium frame runs about 6 inches wide, so sizing matters — someone with a smaller or larger face may find the fit awkward, and NoIR offers other sizes in this line.
