TrueDark Launches Innovative Rx Eyewear With Blue Light Blocking Technology
SEATTLE: Today, TrueDark, a wellness brand that creates innovative light-based technology solutions for healthy living, announced that they will now offer custom single vision prescription glasses with their proprietary blue light blocking technology. This comes after two years of extensive research and development to create the most dynamic collection of Rx glasses for today's [over] screen-lit world.
Like TrueDark's non-Rx glasses, their new prescription eyewear is available in clear or yellow lenses for daytime (categorized as "Daylights"), and red lenses for nighttime (otherwise called "Twilights") that, together, provide a true 24-hour solution for supporting the body's natural circadian rhythm. Some of the daytime prescription styles also include photochromic lenses that darken when exposed to natural sunlight outdoors; they essentially turn into sunglasses that block 99% of UVA/UVB rays. The nighttime lenses go beyond blocking just the harmful blue light spectrum, also cutting out disruptive green and violet light, to help promote natural melatonin production for better sleep in the evenings.
TrueDark's full prescription lineup includes:
- Clear Lenses that block 30% of blue light
- Clear Transition UV 400 Lenses that block 30-40% of blue light indoors and 99% of UVA/UVB outdoors
- Yellow Lenses that block 75% of blue light
- Red Lenses that block 98-100% of blue, green, and violet light
- Gradient Red to Amber Lenses that blocks 99% of blue light and 93%-73% of green light from top to bottom, respectively.
