Blue light filtering glasses are specialized eyewear that filter out blue light emitted by digital screens. They have become an essential tool for maintaining eye health and comfort as we spend more time on devices. The concern over blue light exposure has grown; the average person spends nearly 7 hours a day looking at a screen! Whether you’re working, studying, or simply relaxing in front of a screen, these glasses can make a huge difference in how your eyes feel and function. But how do they work, and are they safe for constant use?
How do blue light filtering glasses work?
Blue light filtering glasses reduce the long-term impact of blue light on your eye with lenses that are coated in a special technology that blocks or absorbs the blue light before it reaches your eyes. This coating filters out the higher end of the blue light spectrum, which is what’s known to cause the most strain. The lenses in blue light glasses reflect blue light emitted from screens, LED lights, and other sources, and some also have an anti-reflective coating to further reduce glare and improve comfort. This makes blue light glasses an excellent choice for anyone who spends a lot of time in front of digital devices, whether for work or pleasure.
Can you wear blue light filtering glasses all day?
Yes! They are designed to be comfortable and safe for all-day wear. You can even safely wear blue light glasses with contacts all-day. In fact, blue light glasses can be a great complement to contacts, providing an extra layer of protection against the strain caused by screens.

How to clean blue light filtering glasses properly
Once that you’ve invested in a safe and stylish pair of blue light glasses, it’s important to clean and store them properly to keep them effective and scratch-free. Start by rinsing the lenses with lukewarm water to remove any dust or debris. Next, apply a small drop of lens cleaner or mild dish soap to each lens and gently rub it in with your fingertips (being careful to avoid grazing them with your nails). Rinse again with water and dry the lenses with a clean, lint-free microfiber cloth. Do not use paper towels, tissues, or clothes on your glasses, as these can scratch the lenses.
When not in use, you should always store your glasses in a sturdy and protective hard back case to prevent damage and keep them in good condition. Regular cleaning and proper storage will help maintain the clarity of the lenses and extend the life of your glasses.
