The film can then be easily removed whenever the wearer desires to transform them right back into conventional prescription eyewear.

The EyKuver eyewear film makes use of no chemical adhesives to stay affixed onto glasses, and come in several size and shade options to choose from. The [eyeglasses films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chemistrie-avulux) are priced at $9.99 for a pack of three and, despite being disposable, can be reused by simply being stored between uses.
