What is blue-violet light?

The sun is the main source of blue-violet light (and also exposes us to UV light). Artificial light sources, such as digital screens and LED lights, also emit blue-violet light.

How do blue-violet light filtering lenses work?

Engineered to filter blue-violet light* from the sun and artificial light sources, while allowing beneficial light to pass through. Designed for protection during work-heavy days and exposure to sunrays.

Benefits of blue-violet light glasses

You can wear blu-violet light glasses pretty much all the time – they’ll protect your eyes from UV and blue-violet light* emitted from the sun and artificial light sources.

All-day benefits

The sun is the main source of our blue-violet light* exposure. If it's too dim to wear sunglasses, you can wear blue-violet light glasses outdoors to filter blue-violet light and UV rays.

Long-term eye protection

Blue-violet light* can put your eyes at risk of retinal cell damage[1]. UV light can cause health issues, such as cataracts. Blue-violet light glasses filter our blue-violet light and UV to support long-term eye health.

Slight blue reflection on the lens surface

The blue-violet light filtering technology of the lens sometimes creates a subtle blue reflection on the lens surface. It's not very noticeable, but others may see it when looking at you in certain lighting conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Our BlueReflect™ and BlueReflect Plus™ lenses are similar to clear lenses, but they have an additional benefit: to protect your eyes against UV and filter blue-violet light*, both indoors and outdoors.

You may notice a very slight yellow tint in your BlueReflect™ lenses if placed against a white background — this is completely normal and comes from the embedded filter in the lenses. There will also be a slight blue reflection on the surface of the lens (which means the glasses are doing their job!). 

BlueReflect Plus™ have an even stronger filter, and therefore a slightly more noticeable tint and blue reflection.

*Blue-violet light is between 400 and 455nm as stated byISO TR20772:2018

Our blue-violet light filtering lenses can be worn pretty much any time you like, as they provide UV protection and blue-violet light* filtration both indoors and outdoors.

However, you should wear sunglasses when outdoors in bright conditions to ensure visual comfort and optimum clarity. We also recommend using a secondary pair of clear lenses when driving at night and when your true colour perception can't be compromised, for the absolute best vision.
