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.
