Why we made Rio eyeglasses.
Rio is an iconic aviator that conceals the world’s most advanced performance features and patented design. Rio’s titanium frame and C3™ lenses weigh in at a stunningly lightweight 19 grams. Patented GEKO™ Pads on the nose and temple provide optimal multi-directional traction and comfort. The result is an incredible “forget you’re wearing them” experience with no-slip retention. Our impact-resistant C3™ lenses deliver outstanding optical clarity and offer anti-scratch, fog resistant, anti-reflectance, oleophobic & hydrophobic coatings. All of this delivers unmatched, ultralight performance with zero compromise on style.
CORE TECHNOLOGY
FLOATFIT™ FRAMES
We obsess over every detail across design, engineering, and materials science to ensure your frames can keep up with anything you throw at them. The result is a frame that is extremely durable, lightweight, comfortable, and will stay on your face. We call this Float Fit, and we invite you to feel the difference.
NO-SLIP GEKO™ PADS
Proprietary formulation enhances fit and retention, relieves pressure points, and gets stickier when wet.
ADVANCED LENS COATINGS
Color. Contrast. Clarity. Our proprietary lens designs offer best-in-class optics with UV protection + anti-scratch, anti-reflectance, and hydrophobic coatings as standard issue.
NO PRESSURE POINTS
Every pair comes with adjustable GEKO™ nosepads, so you can tune your fit and eliminate uncomfortable pressure points.

LENSES
PREMIUM COATINGS
All ROKA performance eyewear has the following lens coatings.
Scratch resistance Highly abrasion-resistant coating which increases surface hardness allowing lenses to exceed testing requirements.
Fog resistant Reduce fog and water formation on the lenses. Smooth coating surfaces allow for easy cleaning after use.
Hydrophobic/Oleophobic Help repel water and reduce oil buildup.
Anti-Reflective Reduce glare and unwanted reflections
OPTIONAL COATING
Blue light blocking An optional lens coating that reduces the amount of high energy visible (HEV) blue light from heavy screen-time use that extends late in the day and into the night.
LENS MATERIAL
Lens material options for this frame are below.
Polycarbonate Thinner than mineral glass by up to 25%, lightweight with increased impact resistance.
Trivex Best optical clarity (centrally and peripherally), ultra lightweight, increased impact resistance and resistant to chemical and stress.
High Index Ideal for stronger power prescriptions that allow for thinner lenses, increased scratch resistance, lower impact resistance as compared to polycarbonate or Trivex. High Index lenses are recommended for prescription powers above +/- 4.00 Sphere and/or Cylinder above +/- 2.00.
OPTICAL TYPE
Prescription and non-prescription options for this frame are below.
Single Vision Most common prescription that corrects for one field of vision (far distance, intermediate, or near vision correction).
Progressive Multifocal lenses for far distance, intermediate, and near vision. Progressive lenses have added magnification at the bottom of the lenses for up close reading.
Readers Non-prescription lenses that have magnification (+ power). Designed to enhance up close reading and do not require a prescription to purchase. Power range offered- +0.50 to +3.00 (in +0.50 diopter increments).
