All Monokel Eyewear lenses feature anti-scratch and anti-reflective treatment with 100% UVA/UVB protection and are produced by renowned German lens and optics manufacturer Carl Zeiss and are in compliance with European, USA, Australian, and New Zealand standards.

  • Handcrafted from organic- and biodegradable acetate

  • 5-Barrel OBE Stainless steel hinges
  • Teflon covered hinge screws
  • Saddle Nose Bridge
  • Regular rivets on front
  • Includes protective case, cleaning cloth and box for storage

    Handmade from plant-based acetate, the frame is lightweight yet durable, with a clean black finish that pairs easily across seasons. The green Carl Zeiss lenses cut glare and balance contrast, making them just as usable in softer light as full sun.

    Monokel Eyewear make their black frames by mixing black ink with raw biodegradable cellulose acetate from cotton and wood pulp. The result is a highly durable, hypoallergenic material, made from renewable resources. 

    Aviator pilots of the 1930s are often credited with making green lenses popular, choosing to wear them due to their ability to work in both sunny and low-light environments while reducing glare and brightening shadows.
