A misconception about the color of blue light lenses

Is there an effective color for blue light lenses? It is commonly understood that the higher the blue light blocking rate of blue light lenses, the more yellow or amber the lens color. Does this mean that individuals working with color, like creators, are limited to glasses with low blue light blocking rates?

Today, let's explore the misconception surrounding the color of blue light lenses.

 

The color of blue light lenses varies

Blue light lenses typically come in shades of yellow or blue, with occasional appearances of green. The intensity of yellow hue can be strong, making it appear orange or amber. In this way, the color options for blue light lenses is quite diverse.

But are lenses with a distinct color really okay?

Even if they effectively block blue light, might they be a bit distracting for everyday wear?

Is clear color ineffective? No

I used to wear green blue light blocking glasses. The green lenses made my eyes look dull, prompting me to purchase an eye cream to prevent bags under my eyes. I felt dissatisfied every time I looked in the mirror.

"Are there no clear blue light blocking glasses?"

"Or is it because the clear ones have a poor blocking rate?"

I used to ponder, but... we've now found clear blue light blocking lense!

Really? We conducted an experiment!

To determine the effectiveness of our blue light blocking lenses, we commissioned testing by the Korea Accreditation Service (KOLAS), which is part of the Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC).

The results are as follows!

  • For Index 1.6 and 1.67: 99% in the 380-410nm spectrum
  • For Index 1.74: 99% in the 380-405nm spectrum

To employees concerned about the effectiveness of our blue light lenses or creators worried about color changes

Are the glasses you are wearing while reading this article blue light blocking glasses? If so, what color are they? Have you experienced discomfort with the color change of blue light lenses on your monitor? Or perhaps hesitated to wear them in your daily life?

I am happy to introduce you to lenses that have minimal color change due to their clear color. Of course, we don't compromise on the blue light blocking rate :)
