What is hard coating on lenses?

Lenses are mainly added in two kinds of film: anti-reflection film and hard film (and some manufacturers produce anti-fogging film and mirror film, but not common). The anti-reflective film is mainly by coating the front surface of the lens with multiple layers of transparent materials with different refractive index and thickness to reduce the excess reflected light on the surface of the lens, by using the principle of light interference. The film can be applied to both glass and resin lenses. The way of hard film plating is usually a soaking process. After many times of soaking and cleaning, soaking in an organic solution containing ultrafine silicon element for a certain time, and then keeping it at a certain temperature for 4-5 hours, the fixed polymerization process of the film has been completed. The surface wear resistance of CR-39 coating can be increased by 2-4 pH, which is similar to the hardness of optical glass lenses.


When to Wear Blue Light Glasses?

If your eyes are experiencing signs of exhaustion after prolonged use of digital screens, you may benefit from blue light blocking glasses. So, please pay attention to what your body is trying to tell you, and there are some warning signs to look out for that tell you if you are in need of blue light glasses.

If you are suffering from one of the following symptoms, you had better wear a pair of blue light blocking glasses, such as headaches, eye strains, trouble sleeping, dry eyes and blurred vision. You can also check whether the symptoms are decreased after wearing the blue light glasses.



Each type of store has its own characteristics.

Nowadays, the optical stores in the market can be roughly divided into professional optometry and optical matching stores, fast fashion stores, brand flagship stores, and stores in shopping malls. The benefits of fast fashion optical stores are fast commodity update frequency, and they follow the fashion trend, which can bring consumers quite more choices. The size of fast fashion optical stores is usually not large, so they will use an open showcase design. The color collocation should be able to catch the attention of consumers, to attract customers to make self-service selection and experience.


What is blue light?

To prevent blue light, we must first understand what blue light is. The visible light with a wavelength range of 400-500 nanometers is called blue light. The light sources used in daily LED lighting and display products, including mobile phones, flat panels, and TVs, are mostly LED light sources excited by blue light. However, not all blue light is harmful to the human body. The human eye has an extremely low tolerance to blue light radiation in the 400-440 nanometer range. When the light intensity enters this threshold, photochemical damage is likely to occur. However, blue light radiation in the range of 459-490 nanometers is essential for regulating the human body's circadian rhythm and can affect the secretion of human melatonin, which in turn has an impact on the body's biological clock, alertness, and mood.

Scientifically effective anti-blue light lenses must not only block harmful blue light but also cannot filter beneficial blue light. Most of the ineffective anti-blue light products on the market currently have two types of problems. One is that there is almost no protective effect on the blue light in the vulnerable zone of the human eye. The other is excessive protection, shielding the blue light spectrum in the beneficial band so that the blue light that is beneficial for physiological adjustment cannot enter the human eye. At the same time, the color of the lens is yellow, which is prone to color shift, aggravating visual fatigue, and even inducing the risk of myopia.



What is blue light?

Our daily lives are inseparable from mobile phones, computers, tablet computers, and other electronic products. Many people's eyesight is also going downhill due to long-term exposure to strong light electronic screens, and their eyes are more or less potentially adversely affected. It is found that many optical stores sell blue light filter glasses, which have the function of blocking 99.9% UV and scattered blue light, alleviating visual fatigue. They claim that these glasses can block short-wave blue light emitted by electronic products such as mobile phones and computers, and even prevent age-related macular degeneration so they are much sought after by consumers. The price of these so-called anti-blue-light glasses varies greatly, ranging from dozens of dollars to several thousand dollars. Do these blue light blocking glasses really have so many magical functions?

The natural light seen by the human eye is composed of a spectrum of different colors, including red light, orange light, yellow light, green light, blue light, indigo light, purple light, which gives people a visual feeling of white. Different wavelengths present different colors visually, and the shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy. At present, products with electronic screens such as computers and mobile phones use LEDs and other materials to emit light mainly in three colors of red, green, and blue, and blue light accounts for the main part. Blue light belongs to the range of visible light, belongs to short waves. And the wavelength is between 400 nanometers and 500 nanometers, which is close to ultraviolet and carries a large amount of energy. And this part from 400 nanometers to 450 nanometers is called high-energy short-wave blue light.


Type of eyeglasses cloth

There are many kinds of cloth for glasses. There is mainly sheepskin eyewear cloth, and there is microfiber eyewear cloth. There are suede and double-sided cloth and so on. Professional eyewear cloth must use more than 200 grams of weight/per cubic centimeter of microfiber. This kind of raw material chemical fiber is fine, and tactility is soft, so it will not damage the lens. This kind of wipe cloth can be used on a computer screen. The two sides of the cloth are different, and the smooth side is used to scrub the lenses. Because the dirt on the lens is mostly small. The rough side is designed to give you more friction when you touch it with your finger, so you can use it more easily, and you can clean it more.
