Wish I hadn't opted for the FRQ Blue Light Lens

"Last time I bought a pair of (other brand) glasses, the blue light protection barely changed the color of the lens. I thought the technology had improved so I didn’t hesitate to add it to my order with Caddis. I feel like it ruined them for me. I’m pretty happy with the frame but now this will probably be my bedside pair and not the out and about pair I had hoped for :("

Love the Porgy’s!

"I’ve had one pair of glasses in the past 15 years (otherwise contacts). I found Caddis randomly on line and couldn’t get enough of the wonderfully designed frames. Luckily I live in NYC, I went down to the store in the West Village, Christopher St. , and tried on all of them… the Porgy’s were my favorite, so much so I bought two, one in Donkey and one in Frog Blender. I’ll probably buy two more Porgy’s and a Mister Cartoon."

Quality!

"I really love these glasses. They feel solid and well-made, not flimsy like some frames I’ve had before. The quality is great, and they seem like they’ll hold up for a long time."

Perfect Color

"As always quality is unmatched."

LOVE

"Love the beautiful color and Porgy better on my face/ nose bridge than Miklos; not quite so heavy"

Sue B. (5/5)

Eye Like

"Eye like. . . See what I did there. lol. Love the look of these because as a former skater it gives me good vibes that at least my eyes can still be radical even if the rest of me is relegated to the longboard."

Very Happy

"I am impressed with the quality and style of my new Caddis glasses. I’ll be buying another pair next week!"

Dustin G. (5/5)

Ordered 2 pair of the same lens but they came with subtle differences

"Overall happy with the purchase but not completely. Ordered 2 identical progressive lenses, but one pair has a much smaller clear upper portion than the other pair. Not ideal because it’ll take some adjustment when switching between them but not a deal breaker"

Dylan S. (4/5)

2 of a kind but slightly different

"Overall happy with the purchase but not completely. Ordered 2 identical progressive lenses, but the gloss black pair has a much smaller clear upper portion than the Donkey(Grey) pair. Not ideal because it’ll take some adjustment when switching between them but not a deal breaker"

Dylan S. (4/5)

Even better than photos

"I have to say I liked the photos of these Porgy frames, but the moment I put these on I fell in love with them. They look great and have a luxurious feel- I am so impressed with the quality and look of these. Will be recommending to my friends and family"

Q&A

Why is it so expensive?
Hi, we feel that the price charged for our glasses is a good deal for what you are getting. They have high-quality frames and lenses, that have a very solid feel and can last for a long time. The frames are optical grade and can have the lenses taken out and new ones put in. The glasses are very stylish and come in a variety of colors and designs. The blue light-blocking lenses block a high amount of blue light that most of our competitors can't compare to. The return policy and warranty are top notch as well. I think if you try the glasses you won't be disappointed.
can I insert my prescribed and use as glasses?
Hi Diana, we do make prescription glasses, here is a link to our prescription page to see what is available. https://caddislife.com/collections/rx Some of our customers will buy readers and take them to their local optical shop to have new prescription lenses made for the glasses. The frames are optical grade and can withstand having the lenses taken out and new ones put in.
the writing on the frame can be white?
I'm sorry the orbital etching is not able to be customized or changed.
can I order them without the inscription on the top of the frames? I find it weird.
No the frames are manufactured with the engraving and are not customizable.
