Why All Blinded Wear Rx Glasses Come with 1.61 High-Index Lenses

High-Performance Vision Starts with High-Index Lenses

When it comes to prescription sports eyewear, not all lenses are created equal. At Blinded Wear Co., we believe elite performance begins with elite materials. That’s why every single Rx pair includes 1.61 high-index lenses — at no additional cost.

Explore our Prescription Eyewear Collection to see the difference.


What Are 1.61 High-Index Lenses?

High-index lenses are designed to bend light more efficiently. The result? You get the same prescription power in a thinner, lighter lens compared to standard plastic or polycarbonate options.

Why It Matters for Athletes:

  • Less weight = more comfort for extended wear.

  • Thinner profile fits better in sport frames.

  • Reduced distortion for improved court vision.

Whether you choose the Dark Ruby RX or any other performance style, you’re getting premium lens quality with no hidden fees.


Our Promise: No Rx Upcharges, Ever

Other brands charge $50-$100 extra for high-index upgrades. At Blinded Wear Co., we believe performance eyewear should come standard with performance lenses.

Included in Every Rx Pair:

  • 1.61 High-Index Lenses

  • Anti-scratch + Anti-fog Coatings

  • 100% UVA/UVB Protection

  • Bounce-Free Athletic Fit
