What Is Blue Light And Where Is It Found?
Blue light, also known as HEV (High Energy Visible) light, is a color within the visible light spectrum that the human eye can perceive due to its shorter wavelength and higher energy level. Unlike certain other types of light, the human eye struggles to efficiently filter out blue light, allowing it to penetrate through to the retina.
Blue light is emitted all around us, every day, everywhere— both outdoors with the sun as the biggest source and LED & fluorescent lighting, as well as by some screens on our digital devices, including continuous use of computers, laptops, mobile devices, tablets, and television channels throughout the day.
How Do Blue Light Blocking Lenses Work?
Blue light blocking lenses are specialized eyeglass lenses designed to reduce the harmful effects of blue-violet light exposure from digital screens, artificial lighting, and the sun. Blue light blocking lenses block out the blue light emitted to your eyes, which we already know are very damaging to eyesight – all this in a virtually clear lens.

Do blue light reading lenses really work?
Blue light blocking lenses are designed with blue ray filters in their lenses. These filters may reduce, block or absorb blue light, preventing retina exposure to this type of light. Thanks to this technology, it has been reported that blue cut lenses could minimize the side effects of working, reading use such as insomnia, digital eye strain, and headaches.
When should you wear blue light blocking lenses?
Blue light reading prescription glasses can be worn any time you’re in front of a desk or laptop computer. We also recommend using blue light glasses when using your mobile devices such as a smartphone and a tablet.
Do blue light lenses have to be yellow?
In the early days, blue light lenses were yellow. But these days, they are designed with seemingly clear lenses that filter out blue light at the higher end of the spectrum.
Can I wear blue light lenses all day?
Yes, blue light lenses can be worn all day for maximum blue light protection. We offer a variety of lenses to cater to your specific activities, so whether you’re outside in the sun or hard at work, reading, there’s a blue filter lens for that.
Do blue light lenses block 100% blue ray?
It’s important to note that not all blue light is harmful. Blue light lenses, also known as blue light blocking glasses, are designed to reduce the amount of blue light that reaches your eyes from digital screens, artificial lighting, and other sources. So they do not typically block 100% of blue light.
