Day
Cortisol.
Cortisol is your body's stress hormone. It's supposed to drop at night. But fake evening light keeps it turned on. Parlay lowers that signal so your body can finally stop feeling wired for no reason.

The Apex is our classic round frame with a little more presence. A wider, fuller shape that carries vintage weight without feeling heavy. We opened up the proportions and softened the curves so it reads bold from across the room but still feels natural up close.
The Apex is hand crafted with premium acetate, spring hinges that flex for comfort, and a saddle bridge that sits flush and stays put. Hand-polished surfaces, triple rivet details, and engraved temple accents give it character without trying too hard. Lightweight, sturdy, and built to wear all day while you protect your eyes and stay locked in.
Dusk is built for the part of the day when screens start to work against you. After the sun goes down, artificial light keeps your body in go mode, even when you're trying to slow down. Dusk blocks far more of the blue and green light coming off screens, so they feel softer and your brain stops reading them as daylight.
The shift is noticeable. Screens feel easier on your eyes. It's easier to unwind. Sleep comes on more naturally when the day is done.
Most people wear Dusk in the evening, at night, or anytime screens leave them feeling wired. It is a deliberate choice. Not a lens that disappears into your routine, but one that does real work when Everyday is not enough.

THE SCIENCE
Made for the way your body works.
Light tells your body what time it is. When that signal is wrong, your sleep, focus, and energy all get thrown off. Parlay fixes the signal.
Drive
Dopamine.
Dopamine keeps you alert and locked in. Screens keep it running long after you want to stop. Parlay filters the light that fuels it, so your brain can actually switch off at the end of the day.
Night
Melatonin.
Melatonin is your sleep hormone. Blue and green light from screens shut it down for hours. Parlay blocks that light, so your brain gets the signal to sleep when it's actually time to sleep.

How Parlay Resets Your Sleep Clock
Most people feel a change in the first week. The rest builds over time.

- A more consistent bedtime window
- Fewer "tired but wired" nights
30 Days
Focus and Stress Regulation
- Stabilized dopamine signaling through the day
- Lower baseline stress feeling
- Cleaner transitions between work mode and rest
60-90 Days
Full Circadian Alignment
- Sleep, energy, and focus move in sync with your day
- Light hygiene becomes automatic
- Long-term nervous system recovery takes hold
How it Works
Light That Blocks Rest
Evening exposure to LEDs, screens, and indoor lighting:
- Shuts down your sleep hormone
- Keeps stress hormones elevated past sundown
- Stalls your body's overnight recovery
- Builds reliance on alcohol and sleep aids
- Leaves you tired but wired at bedtime
Light That Supports Rest
Dusk lenses block ~99% of the blue and green light that throws off your body clock, so you can:
- Wind down without alcohol or sleep aids
- Let your sleep hormone do its job
- Ease into the recovery your body is built for
- Fall asleep with less of a fight
- Wake with your hormones back in rhythm
Common Questions
From sunset to bed. Any time artificial light is the main light around you. Most people put them on after dinner, during TV, while scrolling a phone, or working late on a laptop. The goal is to wear them during the hours your body should be winding down but modern lighting keeps you alert.
Two lenses, two jobs. Everyday is a lighter amber tint for daytime screen work. It reduces strain and keeps your focus steady. Dusk is a deeper amber for after dark. It blocks more of the blue and green light that keeps your brain in daytime mode. Wear Everyday during the day. Switch to Dusk at sunset.
Most people notice a calmer evening on the first night. Screens feel softer. Winding down feels easier. The bigger changes usually show up over the first week or two, as your body clock settles back into a natural rhythm.
The color is the filter. Amber is what blocks the blue and green light most responsible for keeping your brain alert at night. A clear lens cannot do this. It would let the stimulating light pass through. The tint is deliberate, not cosmetic.
Most do very little. Cheap blue light glasses use a thin coating that blocks a small slice of the spectrum, often for looks or marketing. Dusk is different. It filters ~99% of the blue and green light tied to melatonin suppression and late-night alertness. That is a biological correction, not a cosmetic one.
Dusk is not a medical device or a sleep aid. It removes one of the biggest modern obstacles to natural sleep: evening artificial light. When that signal is corrected, your body can return to the rhythm it is already built for. Results depend on the habits you pair it with.
Yes with contacts. Prescription Dusk frames are in the works. Reach out if you want to be notified when they launch.
Clean the lenses with the microfiber cloth and spray included in the box. Store them in the case when you are not wearing them. Avoid paper towels, shirt fabric, and harsh cleaners.
