When were the first glasses invented?

No one knows when the first pair of glasses were invented, but we do know that the grinding techniques for making simple magnifying glasses have been around since 1000 AD, especially in regions where glasses were already produced (including northern Italy). The earliest artwork of glasses appears in the Treviso Cathedral fresco painted by Tommaso de Modena in 1352. There is reliable evidence that eyeglasses were invented in Italy in the late 13th century. The first pair we think of as eyeglasses appeared in Italian pizza in the late 12th century and looked more like two small magnifying glasses (made of raised glass) riveted together at the top of the handle. In 1266, The English Franciscan Monk Roger Bacon wrote about the scientific principles of corrective lenses, but there is no evidence that he applied this knowledge to the manufacture of eyeglasses.


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.



Disadvantages of Prism Glasses

Although prism glasses are mostly used for correcting binocular vision, they also have some disadvantages which are said by those who have worn them. They said they suffer from some discomforts, such as headaches, pain with eye movement, wandering eyes. Misaligned eyes, nausea, double vision, and more. In most cases, side effects can be corrected with an adjustment to someone’s lens prescription, eyeglasses frames or medication.

At the same time, you need to know that alignment is extremely important when wearing prism lenses. Prism lenses may be not efficient if they are misaligned. But they can be fixed with a professional adjustment. If you are experiencing any problems with new glasses or your old prism lenses stop working, contact your vision optometrist.


Do night driving glasses really work?

Yellow lenses reduce the amount of light entering your eye, reducing visibility. These darker colors block more blue light than yellow lenses. But they block more light from entering the eye, reducing visibility even more in low-light conditions. In fact, even yellow lenses reduce overall visible light to some extent because they block some blue light. This can be a good thing during the day, but not at night, when maximum visibility is key. Night driving glasses come in a variety of yellow and amber colors. The darkest lenses filter out the harshest light, but they filter out the largest amount of light, making it difficult to see in dim or dark conditions. Some people who wear night driving glasses say they can see better with them on. However, vision tests have shown that night driving glasses do not improve night vision, nor do they help drivers see pedestrians any faster than they would without glasses.

How to choose progressive lenses

The progressive lens can effectively control the deepening of myopia, but there is no reliable empirical evidence. At present, the height of the lens frame is only about 30mm. The distance from the design of the transition interval is not enough, and the comfort of the eye is difficult to adjust the short distance. From the quality and technology, the foreign brand design process is stable and mature, but the price is too high, there are still a lot of people who are not easy to adapt. The parameters of progressive lenses need to be determined by strict optometry.
