CORE TECHNOLOGY

FLOATFIT™

We obsess over every detail across design, engineering, and materials science to ensure your frames can keep up with anything you throw at them. The result is a frame that is extremely durable, lightweight, comfortable, and will stay on your face. We call this Float Fit, and we invite you to feel the difference.

NO-SLIP GEKO™ PADS

Proprietary formulation enhances fit and retention, relieves pressure points, and gets stickier when wet.

PREMIUM LENS TECHNOLOGY

Our proprietary C3™ lens tech (stands for Color, Contrast, and Clarity) offers best-in-class optics with UV protection + anti-scratch, anti-reflectance, and hydrophobic coatings as standard issue.

LENS MATERIALS

Standard

POLYCARBONATE

The highest quality PC, featuring anti-reflective, anti-scratch, super-hydrophobic, oleophobic and fog resistant coatings. Lightweight, impact resistant, 100% UV protection.

Upgrade

TRIVEX

Features all of the benefits of our polycarbonate lenses but even lighter and more optically clear, both centrally and peripherally.

Upgrade

HIGH INDEX

Thinner and lighter to accommodate strong prescriptions.

LENS TINTS

LENSES

PREMIUM COATINGS

All ROKA performance eyewear has the following lens coatings.

Scratch resistance Highly abrasion-resistant coating which increases surface hardness allowing lenses to exceed testing requirements.

Fog resistant Reduce fog and water formation on the lenses. Smooth coating surfaces allow for easy cleaning after use.

Hydrophobic/Oleophobic Help repel water and reduce oil buildup.

Anti-Reflective Reduce glare and unwanted reflections

OPTIONAL COATING

Blue light blocking An optional lens coating that reduces the amount of high energy visible (HEV) blue light from heavy screen-time use that extends late in the day and into the night.

LENS MATERIAL

Lens material options for this frame are below.

Polycarbonate Thinner than mineral glass by up to 25%, lightweight with increased impact resistance.

Trivex Best optical clarity (centrally and peripherally), ultra lightweight, increased impact resistance and resistant to chemical and stress.

High Index Ideal for stronger power prescriptions that allow for thinner lenses, increased scratch resistance, lower impact resistance as compared to polycarbonate or Trivex. High Index lenses are recommended for prescription powers above +/- 4.00 Sphere and/or Cylinder above +/- 2.00.

OPTICAL TYPE

Prescription and non-prescription options for this frame are below.

Single Vision Most common prescription that corrects for one field of vision (far distance, intermediate, or near vision correction).

Progressive Multifocal lenses for far distance, intermediate, and near vision. Progressive lenses have added magnification at the bottom of the lenses for up close reading.

Readers Non-prescription lenses that have magnification (+ power). Designed to enhance up close reading and do not require a prescription to purchase. Power range offered- +0.50 to +3.00 
(in +0.50 diopter increments).
