JULIET Plasma / Emerald Sample Lenses Have Arrived!
Release Date: December 5th
Hello, everyone!
Let me introduce our new product, the "Emerald" lens.
We’ve received many requests to create lenses in the same color as Emerald Iridium. While there were several opportunities to move forward with production, global events like COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflict heavily impacted LINEGEAR’s operations, delaying the product's development.
However, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve finally been able to create it.
Recently, the samples arrived.

In the image below, the upper JULIET features the original Emerald Iridium lenses, while the lower JULIET shows the Emerald lenses we’ve developed at LINEGEAR.
The official release is planned for December 5th.
Here’s some additional information:
When you hear "Emerald," you might think of the Ichiro model. While the lenses on the Ichiro model are indeed Emerald, they are technically called Emerald Slate.
Although similar to the regular Emerald Iridium lenses found on Plasma JULIETs, the base lens transmission rates are different:
Emerald Slate (Transmission rate: 25%) - Features a slightly lighter base lens.
Regular Emerald Iridium (Transmission rate: ~10%) - Found on Plasma JULIETs.
The mirror color is identical, but the transmission rates set them apart.
When deciding on the transmission rate for our new lenses, we considered whether to align with the Ichiro model or the regular Emerald lenses. Ultimately, we opted for a balance, setting the rate at approximately 14%.
These lenses feature a robust mirror coating that prevents visibility of the eyes, but they are about 4% brighter than the original Emerald lenses.
We hope this explanation provides clarity.
About the image above:
- The upper lenses are the original Emerald Iridium.
- The lower lenses are our newly developed Emerald lenses.
Additionally, we’ll also be producing polarized lenses this time! This means we’ll offer both regular Emerald lenses and polarized Emerald lenses. The material used will be polycarbonate.
Please look forward to them, and thank you for your continued support!
