Blue Light Filtering Lenses & Digital Eye Strain Relief

If you spend hours each day on digital devices, your eyes may feel tired, dry or strained. Modern blue light filtering lenses are designed to protect your eyes from high‑energy light and improve comfort. Learn how Eyezen lenses work and whether they’re right for you.

Why Blue Light Matters

LED screens emit short‑wavelength blue‑violet light. While some blue light is beneficial for regulating sleep and mood, too much exposure can contribute to eye strain, headaches and disruption of circadian rhythms. Blue light filtering lenses reduce the amount of high‑energy light reaching your eyes, easing strain and helping you stay comfortable during long hours on computers, tablets or smartphones.

Eyezen Start Lenses

Eyezen Start is a single‑vision lens that uses two different optical zones: one for distance and one for near vision. This design gives you clear vision across the lens and makes screen use more comfortable. Eyezen Start also filters higher‑energy blue‑violet light to reduce digital eye strain and protect your eyes.

Eyezen +: An Accommodative Boost

Eyezen + lenses are enhanced single‑vision lenses with an accommodative boost – a small amount of magnification in the lower portion of the lens to support focusing muscles. This can relieve fatigue when reading or using handheld devices. Eyezen + comes in four power levels: 0.00, 0.40, 0.60 and 0.85 diopters, generally aligned with age groups ranging from teenagers to adults aged 45–50. All Eyezen designs incorporate blue‑violet light filtering; your optometrist will recommend the right option based on your prescription and how you use screens.

Are Blue Light Lenses Right for You?

Blue light filtering lenses can benefit anyone who spends significant time on digital devices. They may improve visual comfort, reduce glare and help maintain natural sleep cycles. However, they are not a cure for all eye problems. If you are over 40 or experiencing presbyopia, progressive or multifocal lenses may better meet your needs. Schedule a comprehensive eye exam to discuss your symptoms and find the ideal lens design.
