Warby Parker's Intelligent Eyewear collection

Warby Parker’s Intelligent Eyewear collection

For more than 16 years, Warby Parker has helped people see more clearly. With Intelligent Eyewear, the company is now helping people experience the world in entirely new ways.

“Glasses are one of the most personal things we wear,” said Dave Gilboa, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker. “Intelligent Eyewear is about adding extraordinary capability without losing the beauty, simplicity, and humanity that make a great pair of glasses feel like part of you. By designing products that are as useful and intuitive as they are refined, we’re empowering people to look up, stay present, and engage more deeply with the world around them.”

Designed for everyday wear

The full Intelligent Eyewear collection features three frame styles—Alden, Reid, and Wren—inspired by Warby Parker’s most recognizable and beloved silhouettes. At about 41 grams, the frames bring together lightweight comfort and integrated technology, designed for all-day, everyday wear.

Each frame is crafted from ultra-lightweight, flexible nylon, with a semi-transparent finish on the inner temple that subtly reveals and celebrates the integrated technology and hardware. The styles are available in optical and sun versions across three colorways: Pine, Saddle, and Jet Black. The collection supports a wide range of prescriptions, widths, and lens options so that everyone can find their perfect fit. For additional versatility, customers can also select from a variety of custom clip-on sun lenses designed exclusively for Intelligent Eyewear.

Every pair reflects a design approach that starts first and foremost with the glasses themselves, driven by the belief that they must be something people want to wear all day. Warby Parker’s in-house, New York City-based design team focused on timeless style, lightweight comfort, and prescription compatibility, working closely with Google and Samsung to ensure that integrating the technology would not compromise style, fit, or comfort.

“Designing Intelligent Eyewear began with the same conviction that guides every collection we create: glasses should be as expressive as they are effortless to wear,” said Neil Blumenthal, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker. “We considered every detail, from the proportion of each silhouette to the interplay of color, material, and finish, with the same attention to fit, comfort, and optical quality that defines Warby Parker. The result is a collection that feels distinctly ours, with technology thoughtfully integrated to open up remarkable possibilities.”

Intelligence for everyday life

With Google Gemini, Warby Parker Intelligent Eyewear brings contextual, in-the-moment assistance into everyday life, helping wearers access information and get things done while staying engaged with the world around them. The technology is designed to be useful when you need it and unobtrusive when you don’t.

Combined with Samsung’s engineering expertise, the frames feature a 12-megapixel HDR camera designed to capture high-quality photo and video, two open-ear speakers, and four microphones for voice input and audio capture. Intelligent Eyewear also delivers up to nine hours of battery life on a single charge, with a charging case that can recharge your frames up to seven times.

Intelligent Eyewear has privacy features designed for both sides of the lens. Google and Samsung developed hardware and software controls that put the wearer in charge, plus privacy protections for both wearers and bystanders.
