i'm colorblind and i clicked on this video as entertainment as i was eating thinking i wouldn't get any useful information on here and i have to say i was terribly and surprisingly wrong! this is GREAT info! I'm looking forward to get brown, and purple tints now! they look amazing!

G-15 great color. Sunset suite, violet is an absolutely amazing color.

Brown is my favourite colour! I luckily own blue, grey, pink and purple sunglasses and love them all but brown is by far my best colour to see the world in even on a cloudy day

The last bit flicked the lightbulb in my mind! I bought oakley sapphire mirrored glasses, but I got super disappointed that instead of seeing blue tint I am seeing brown, and could not figure out why. Now of course it makes sense. Thank you!

Fantastic comparison Robert! It was so good to see the tints one after another. The Sweet Violet was truly an enhancing tint. Really lends itself to an enriched vision experience.

I like which ever one gets me to see the world like its always “golden hour”. I just go for the feels.

Here's what I use:
- grey for general use, especially on bright days. 
- polarized smoked amber for partially overcast or sunny winter days (to help cut snow glare). 
- Yellows for night driving which helps reduce glare and makes it easier on my eyes due to my astigmatism

I love the grand seiko watch spring drive movement he is wearing.

I never imagined I would care about sunglass tint. Also that scenery is so beautiful 😍

Pink is very useful in darker conditions. E.g. rainy forest. Yellow is close, because it helps to bring out contrast in the "cold"light. But pink pretty much works in anything, so changing from a rainy day to sunshine, and entering a well lit trail after a dark forest, it's the best experience.

Hence companies like Oakley using a pink-ish tint in their "trail" line of products.
Once the rainy season comes, it's only pink and yellow glasses I wear while cycling.

Very informative. I'm in the same field as you are. I have more years experience than you but you taught me something valuable. Now, no longer will I reflexively recommend gray or brown or green. Thank you. I respect you and your knowledge enormously.
From now on, for any client that is inquisitive about tints, I will just show him or her this video.
In a way, you will be doing my job. Hope you don't mind.
I love your content.

I just recently had Lasik done and at 50 and wearing glasses for most of my life, Sunglasses are a new thing to me. I have mostly steered towards brown lenses because I find the way it shades the world very appealing. I found this video eye opening, pun intended, as to what other shade of lens colors can offer. I still need to find a good set to use at night for driving, since the operation does create a more pronounced bloom around bright lights.

I really appreciate the thorough explanation of tint colors in this video! The honest discussion about their daily added value and how they fit into personal style was very insightful. It's great that you took the time to show various tints, which made it easier to understand their differences and benefits. I think it is helpful to stop/start the video at key points when watching to be able to better assess and compare. This video truly reflects the same honest, professional, and committed expertise and service you receive in the shop. And the footage of the amazing Bodnant Garden, home to National Collections and Champion Trees, was a fantastic addition. Keep up the great work!

Damn I should have watched your video before going to my optician and getting a grey tint for my sunglasses and 15% green tint for my prescription glasses... brown, orange and pink are the most pleasant to look through, should have chosen one of these 😩 I guess I prefer warmer colord

[gwenjones]

Oh Wow! No one ever told me how much your lens color Mattered! So interesting. I’ll definitely be watching this again. I’ve always gotten the Darkest possible lens & mirrored (sunglasses) bc my eyes are so sensitive to bright light, now I’m rethinking the whole thing! Even a different colored tint over a colored lens. Fascinating! Thanks so much for all the inSight!!

asmr + all coloured lens info = eye ear zen heaven

[vaclav_fejt]

My favourite tint is red. I got a pair of novelty Lennon glasses and it was trippy. Everything was red. Blue was red. Brown was red. White was red. Green was black and red was orange.

[ShashwatShukla]

Without any lens, I can see a Grand Seiko on your wrist.... Great choice man!

[mariafasolinh]

One of the best videos about eyeglass lenses I've ever seen!
