Method Seven technical history of innovation, the new FX2 Lens for Full Spectrum LED Grow Room Lights

April 18, 2025

Over a decade ago, Method Seven launched the world’s first color-filtering, color-balancing HPS lens—essentially inventing the grow room eyewear category. And we’ve never looked back. Today, with the FX2 lens, we’re unveiling the most advanced grow light optics ever engineered.

Join Dave and James from the Method Seven team as they reveal the cutting-edge science behind the FX2 LED grow light lens, a product born from years of research, testing, and collaboration with leading LED lighting manufacturers. This isn’t just an evolution—it’s a technological leap, and the only solution for those working under full-spectrum white LED horticulture lighting.


A Breakthrough in Grow Light Eyewear

The FX2 lens is the result of meeting and exceeding a long list of technical benchmarks—from precise spectral filtering to thin-film coatings tuned to specific light wavelengths. Designed for full-spectrum LED grow lights, FX2 protects your eyes while delivering true color, reduced eye fatigue, and razor-sharp visual detail.

We didn’t just build for today—we engineered the FX2 for tomorrow. As new LED technologies emerge, FX2 is already tuned to handle them. It’s future-proofed to work across the evolving spectrums used by top horticultural lighting companies.


Why Green? Why the Petrol Mirror Finish?

The FX2 lens features a distinctive green tint and petrol mirror finish—and it’s not just for looks. That colorway reflects the lens’s ability to balance color while blocking harmful peaks in the light spectrum. The green hue hits the optical sweet spot, while the mirror coating reflects high-energy visible (HEV) and near-infrared (NIR) light, reducing stress and helping your eyes stay sharp and relaxed for hours in intense lighting.


Built for the Grow—Ready for the Sun

Thanks to its expertly tuned spectral filtering, FX2 doesn’t just shine under LEDs. It performs beautifully in natural sunlight, too. That makes FX2 perfect for outdoor gardening, greenhouse work, or even casual wear, with many growers calling it the most versatile lens they've ever used.


Available in Multiple Frame Styles

To ensure maximum comfort and style, the FX2 LED lens is available in a range of premium frames:

  • Citadel – sleek, protective, and ultra-lightweight

  • Evolution – performance-driven and flexible

  • Cultivator FX2 – affordable, lightweight everyday protection

  • The Duchess FX2 – an exclusive collaboration frame with cannabis culture icon The Dank Duchess

Whether you're working in a commercial facility or your own personal garden, there's an FX2 frame for every environment and every face.
