The Miraflex Mike1 eyeglasses are flexible, prescription-ready frames built specifically for active kids ages 6-8. Made in Italy from soft, hypoallergenic plastic, these rectangle frames bend, twist, and bounce back—designed to withstand the demands of active play.
Durable Flexible Design
The Mike1 features a one-piece construction with zero metal parts. No hinges means no sharp edges, no screws to swallow, and no breakage points. The flexible material is BPA-free, latex-free, and rubber-free, making it safe for sensitive skin. The anatomically designed bridge fits a child's nose comfortably without nose pads—eliminating one of the most common pressure points in traditional kids' glasses.
Stays Put During Play
Each pair includes an adjustable elastic head strap that wraps around the back of the head, keeping the glasses securely in place during sports, recess, and everyday adventures. The strap is soft and comfortable enough for all-day wear. The Mike1 measures 40mm lens width, 17mm bridge, and 112mm temple length—sized right for school-age children.
Prescription-Ready in Multiple Colors
These frames accept prescription lenses for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. They're compatible with polycarbonate and Trivex lenses for maximum impact resistance. Available in multiple vibrant colors including dark blue, magenta, royal blue, clear green, black, plum, lavender, and red, so kids can pick a style they'll actually want to wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age range are Miraflex Mike1 eyeglasses designed for?
The Mike1 frames are designed for children ages 6-8 years. The frame measurements (40mm lens width, 17mm bridge, 112mm temple) are specifically sized for school-age kids in this age range. The adjustable head strap ensures a secure, comfortable fit as your child grows.
Are Miraflex frames really unbreakable?
Yes, Miraflex frames are made from extremely flexible plastic that bends and twists without cracking or breaking. The one-piece, metal-free construction eliminates traditional breakage points like hinges and screws. Optical professionals and parents consistently report that these frames withstand the demanding daily challenges of active children.
Can I add prescription lenses to Miraflex Mike1 frames?
Absolutely. The Mike1 frames are fully prescription-ready and can accommodate lenses for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. They work well with polycarbonate or Trivex lenses, which are impact-resistant and recommended for children's eyewear. The frames can even handle high prescriptions and prisms.
Are Miraflex frames safe for kids with allergies or sensitive skin?
Yes. Miraflex frames are made from hypoallergenic materials that are completely BPA-free, latex-free, and rubber-free. The soft, flexible plastic is gentle on sensitive skin, and the anatomically designed bridge eliminates the need for nose pads, which are a common source of irritation and discomfort for young children.
How does the head strap work on Miraflex Mike1 glasses?
The Mike1 includes a soft, adjustable elastic strap that wraps around the back of the head to keep the glasses securely in place. This is especially helpful for active kids who play sports, run around at recess, or tend to knock their glasses off. The strap is comfortable enough for all-day wear and prevents the glasses from slipping down the nose.
What's the difference between Miraflex and FlexFrames?
Miraflex has been rebranded as FlexFrames under new ownership, but the frames retain the same Italian design, quality, and durability. You may see both names on the product, but they refer to the same trusted line of flexible, safe eyewear for children. The signature unbreakable construction and metal-free design remain unchanged.

Miraflex Mike1 vs. Other Miraflex Kids' Frames
All Miraflex frames share the same Italian-made, flexible, metal-free construction—so you can't go wrong. The choice comes down to size and style.
Mike1 vs. NewBabyOne: Size Matters
The Miraflex NewBabyOne is designed for younger children ages 4-6, with a smaller 39mm lens width. If your child is in the 6-8 age range, the Mike1's 40mm lens width will provide a better fit and more lens area for their prescription. Parents often start with the NewBabyOne and graduate to the Mike1 as their child grows.
Mike1 vs. NewBaby2: Nearly Identical
The Miraflex NewBaby2 is sized for the same age range (6-8 years) and has a similar 42mm lens width. The frames are nearly identical in construction and durability. Your choice will likely come down to which color options you prefer—both offer a wide range of vibrant, kid-friendly shades.
Mike1 vs. EVA: Classic vs. Sport
The Miraflex EVA offers a sport-style design for kids who prefer a more athletic look. It's sized similarly (43mm lens width) and built with the same unbreakable materials. If your child plays a lot of sports or prefers a sportier aesthetic, the EVA is worth considering. For a more traditional rectangular frame, stick with the Mike1.
Our recommendation: The Mike1 is the best all-around choice for school-age kids (6-8 years) who need durable, comfortable, prescription-ready glasses. The classic rectangular shape suits most face shapes, and the 18 color options mean your child can find a pair they'll love to wear.
