STATE Optical Co. is a first-of-its-kind luxury American eyewear brand. Built from the ground up in Chicago, their frames are meticulously handcrafted with designs rooted in their hometown city’s history and culture.
With a distinct straight edge across the top of the classically round lens shape, Union by STATE Optical distinguishes itself and stands out where others choose to stand back and blend in and comfortably fits medium-sized faces. Union pairs beautifully with ourfavorite clear lens package for multi-focal Rx progressive eyeglasses complete with blue light & UV protection plus premium anti-reflection coatings. All of our custom prescription progressive lenses are digitally surfaced to help you see clearly into the distance while also helping you to focus up close for the most comfortable and clear view possible.
All of our premium prescription lenses come with a 1-year scratch warranty. We offer a one-time free lens replacement if your lenses become scratched during the first year.

Made from sustainable cellulose acetate, the Union frames are lightweight and feature highly adjustable temple tips to make it easy to bend over your ears to either tighten or loosen the frame fit as needed.
Also known as ‘no-line bifocals’, Rx Progressive lenses help you to see clearly into the distance … and up close. As you age your eyes tend to lose the ability to focus up close. If you wear reading glasses, then you already have an “ADD Power” (the magnification power required to help you focus up close). Check your doctor’s prescription to see if you have an “ADD Power” – usually listed on your Rx Script after Sphere / Cylinder / Axis … then ADD. If you don’t have an ADD Power indicated on your doctor’s prescription, then you don’t need Rx Progressive lenses.
All of our prescription lenses come standard with premium Anti-Reflection coatings engineered to enhance clarity and comfort while boosting oleophobic and hydrophobic properties to keep your lenses cleaner longer.
Our clear Rx eyeglass lenses come with built in protection against harmful blue Light and UV rays. No need to pay any upgrade fees because it’s already part of your lens package when you select INDOOR Lenses or INDOOR/OUTDOOR Lenses.
When you select INDOOR/OUTDOOR Lenses you’ll be wearing the latest generation of light-changing photochromic lenses (also known as ‘transitions’). Our INDOOR/OUTDOOR lenses are clear indoors and turn into polarized sunglasses outdoors. Compared to previous generations of photochromic technology, your lenses will turn darker, faster, and become polarized as they darken to eliminate irritating glare and reveal a clear and squint-free view. Currently our INDOOR/OUTDOOR lenses are only available in an option that turns from clear to Grey tint.
All our eyeglasses and sunglasses are covered by L&F's one year scratch warranty which means that we'll replace your scratched lenses one time for free within the first year.
Our lenses can be made to work with any power correction. If your prescription requires a strong vision correction, generally indicated with numbers that are larger than +/-4.00, then you may benefit from selecting High Index 1.67 lenses. These are specialty lenses that can be produced very thin, even with strong powers. Thin means light weight. And lightweight means long-term comfort so you can enjoy wearing your eyeglasses all day long.
We use sustainable, eco-friendly cellulose acetate for all of our frames (except those that are made of titanium). Cellulose acetate is widely used for premium optical frames because of the unlimited colors and patterns that can be produced, and because it is highly adjustable in order to personalize the frame fit to your head shape. Need to tighten the frame to stop it from sliding down your nose, no problem: gently bend the temple tips to hook more tightly around your ears. Feeling a little pinch behind your ears, no problem: gently straighten the temple tips to relax the frame fit.
