The quality of the filter makes all the difference.
We spend hours in front of screens and under LED lights, from the moment we wake up until we go to bed. That’s why we design glasses that filter out exactly the part of the spectrum we’re concerned about—and we prove it with lab data, not just promises.
We select lenses, materials, and finishes with a specific purpose in mind. We’ll explain what each lens filters and when to use it, so you can choose the option that’s best for you. During the day, clear and yellow lenses for your screen time. At night, orange and red lenses for when it’s time to unplug and get some restful sleep.
WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE
- Cellulose acetate frames—the classic material for high-quality eyewear.
- CR-39 organic lenses with a blue light filter, anti-reflective coating, scratch-resistant coating, and superhydrophobic coating.
- Tested at Eyco, an independent laboratory accredited by ENAC
There are many details that set us apart, but they all boil down to one thing: sunglasses you actually want to wear, with a filter whose function you understand perfectly.
MEASURED, NOT PROMISED
Anyone can claim that their lenses filter blue light. We prefer to have someone else measure it. Our lenses have been tested at Eyco, an independent laboratory accredited by ENAC and specializing in spectrophotometry and ophthalmic optics testing.
In addition, they have been tested in accordance with the international standards ANSI Z80.3:2018, EN ISO 12312-1:2013, and AS/NZS 1067.1:2016.
Check the specifications for each filter in the comparison table. We provide this information so you can compare your options and make an informed choice.

WHAT IS BLUE LIGHT?
Blue light is part of the visible light spectrum and is found in both natural light and artificial sources, including screens and many LED lighting systems. Its wavelength ranges from approximately 380 to 500 nanometers.
Light influences the signals received by our biological clock. Its effect depends on the time of day, intensity, duration of exposure, and spectral composition.
During the day, light helps keep us alert. At night, reducing light intensity and exposure to blue-rich light can help create an environment more conducive to rest.
SPENDING MANY HOURS IN FRONT OF SCREENS?
Cell phones, computers, tablets… We stare at them for hours, from morning to night, at close range and with our eyes fixed on the screen. When we focus on a screen, we blink less and strain our eyes to focus up close for long periods of time. This is what’s known as digital eye strain.
What many people notice at the end of the day:
- Itchy eyes
- Headache
- Tired eyes-
- Difficulty unwinding at night.
We can't change the amount of screen time your day demands, but we can change how that light reaches your eyes. We want to turn screen time from an uncomfortable experience into something you can enjoy.

Blue Light and the Night
Blue light is the type of light that most clearly signals to our bodies that it is daytime. Research such as that published by Harvard University explains that exposure to blue light at night reduces the secretion of melatonin, the hormone involved in circadian rhythms and falling asleep.
Screens and LED lighting emit a lot of blue light, and we tend to look at them right up until bedtime. That’s why we designed our Biohackers glasses: orange and red lenses that filter out blue and green light in the hours before you go to bed.
