Your everyday vision toolkit, tuned like a campervan electrical upgrade.


👓 Frame Specs — Ray-Ban RB7047 (Black)

Your new frames are the optical equivalent of Vanilla: clean lines, dependable, timeless, and no messing about.

  • Shape: Rectangular full-rim

  • Material: Lightweight, comfy plastic

  • Fit: Unisex, sits on the nose like it was meant to live there

  • Vibe: Understated, tidy, proper classic Nix

These frames love progressive lenses — plenty of room for the distance → intermediate → reading zones to flow smoothly.


🔍 Your Prescription (Decoded Nix-Style)

You’ve got a mild long-sighted setup with a sprinkle of astigmatism and a strong reading boost. Here’s what that actually means for day-to-day life:

👁 Right Eye (OD)

  • +1.75 SPH – needs help focusing up close

  • −0.50 CYL @ 15° – slight astigmatism, cleaned up nicely

  • +2.00 ADD – the reading turbo-charger

👁 Left Eye (OS)

  • +1.00 SPH – milder long-sightedness

  • −0.25 CYL @ 165° – minimal shape correction

  • +2.00 ADD – same close-work boost as right

↔️ PD 63mm

The sweet spot between your eyes. Think of it as the optical equivalent of lining up the drone gimbal perfectly.


🪩 Lens Tech — KODAK Easy2 Max Progressives

Your lenses are basically the Swiss-Army-knife of vision.

🧠 Progressive Zones (Nix Simplified)

  • Top: Distance (driving Vanilla, drone spotting, seeing Wolves fans moaning)

  • Middle: Intermediate (dashboard, computer screens, menus)

  • Bottom: Reading (phone, labels, bread-machine instructions)

No lines, no “old bloke” bifocal aesthetic. Smooth transitions, modern performance.


🌗 Transitions® XTRActive® (Grey)

Your lenses literally adapt to the world around you.

  • Darken deeply outdoors 🌞

  • Slight tint indoors 😎

  • Activate behind a car windscreen 🚐 (XTRActive special move)

  • Reduce glare, protect your retinas

It’s like having built-in sunglasses that only wake up when needed.


✨ Silver+ Coating (KODAK)

A sleek multi-layer protective finish:

  • Cuts reflections

  • Sharpens clarity

  • Reduces eye strain

  • Adds that premium polished look

Basically the “ceramic coat” of lenses.


🔧 Lens Index — 1.5 (Standard)

For your prescription, this is spot-on:

  • Keeps things natural

  • Strong enough

  • Clear, crisp, and comfy

  • Sits beautifully in RB7047 frames

Thinner lenses aren’t needed unless the prescription is heavy — yours isn’t.


🛡 UV Protection

All-day defence.Invisible sunscreen for your eyeballs.Perfect for outdoor adventures, drone missions, and bright summer in Filthy Stafford.


🔮 What This Means for You

Your new optical setup gives you:

  • Crisp distance vision (driving Vanilla, drone line-of-sight)

  • Smooth mid-range (B&O speaker positions, control panels, bread maker readouts)

  • Sharp reading vision (phones, labels, Nix Notes)

  • Automatic sun protection

  • Glare control indoors and outdoors

  • A modern look that suits your style

It’s all the benefits of two pairs of glasses… blended into one seamless, tidy, Nix-approved pair.


📝 NIX OBSERVATIONS

  • RB7047 is a perfect match for progressive lenses — loads of vertical height.

  • Your ADD +2.00 means reading will feel dramatically clearer.

  • XTRActive is ideal for drivers — standard Transitions don’t activate in the car.

  • You’ve done everything right here: good frames, strong lens tech, clean coatings.

  • This is a long-term, everyday, no-compromise optical setup.
