Superior Blue Light Protection

Blue Light  - It’s all around us. Outdoors, we are bathed in the full spectrum of sunlight -  high intensity blue light. Inside, we are exposed to blue light from electronic devices, cell phones and computers, to our LED television sets – and in addition, we are increasingly exposed to blue light due to the shifts in indoor lighting.
— David Salk

By studying the science of blue light, we can understand the facts related to the different wavelengths and intensities of blue light, so that we can make informed decisions and recommendations about how to address blue light in its different forms, and provide consumers with optimal vision, eye protection, and aid a healthy sleep cycle.


BlueLogic365 -Superior Blue Light Protection

My goals in designing BL365 were: 

1.    Superior filtering of HEV

2.    Outdoor protection from high intensity blue light

3.    Attenuation of longer wavelengths of Blue “LWB”

4.    Visible Light Transmission >80% for safe night driving

 And we succeeded:

  • Filters 70% average HEV from 400-430nm

  • Photochromic to protect your eyes outdoors

  • Absorbs 30% of LWB to promote better sleep

  • Transmits 81% visible light to comply with motor vehicle codes









Why Clip-Ons are a great compliment – BL365 and eClips

Clip-ons offer distinct advantages:

A clip can be worn over ANY Rx and lens design – this eliminates the restrictions of having to prescribe specific lens designs and materials. You can recommend ALL progressive lens designs, and all lens materials to your patients, and provide consistent, superior Blue Light management. 

A clip can be removed, allowing the patient to have their clear Rx whenever they choose.

Different clips can be worn for different applications – a patient can have a beautiful clear Rx and then add a Blue Logic clip to manage Blue Light, and a polarized sun clip for maximum outdoor protection.

We matched BL365 to eClips “Illusion” to provide the ultimate clip-on. One that can provide superior blue light protection indoors and out, and is removable, so that you can have your clear Rx whenever you want. And because BL365 and eClips can be worn over ANY Rx, you can recommend your favorite lens designs and materials, without worrying about the performance of the blue light filter. BL365 clips are 100% consistent in performance. Illusion’s minimalist design will not detract from even the most high end eyewear.

BL365 are also available as plano uncut lenses, and can be edged for ANY frame. This is a perfect choice for kids who should be protecting their eyes all day. From indoor and outdoor blue light exposure.  There is no substitute for experience, so we invite you to test our lenses and see the difference. If you’re like most, your eyes will immediately feel more comfortable.
