Blue Light Glasses in Honolulu
At Simply Eyes Hawaii, we know how much time people in Honolulu spend on phones, computers, and tablets. Blue light from digital screens can cause eye strain, headaches, and disrupted sleep. That’s why we offer blue light glasses—customized lenses designed to keep your eyes more comfortable during long hours on screens.
What Are Blue Light Glasses?
Blue light glasses use a special filter that reduces the amount of high-energy visible (HEV) light reaching your eyes. They look just like regular eyeglasses but help ease the symptoms of digital eye strain, sometimes called computer vision syndrome.
Benefits of Blue Light Glasses
- Less eye strain during computer and phone use
- Reduced glare for clearer vision
- Better sleep quality by minimizing late-night screen disruption
- All-day comfort for work, school, and gaming
- Blue light protection can be added to CR-39, polycarbonate, Trivex, and high-index lenses, so you can enjoy screen comfort in the material that works best for you.
