how to test blue light filter glasses at home
If you are a blue light filter glasses wearer, you’ve probably heard by now how to test them at home. If your eyes don’t like the blue light, then you’re going to need to keep on testing them at home.
There are a lot of different types of blue light filter glasses.
The blue light filter glasses we are talking about are called, “blue light blocking glasses”. The name came from the fact that they block blue light from damaging your eyes. It is a common misconception that all “blue light filter glasses” are only for blocking blue light, however. All blue light filter glasses can block light that is very blue in wavelength. The filters that are most commonly used today are called “ultra-violet” (UV) filters.
Because of this misconception, many people buy blue light filter glasses thinking that they are only for blocking blue light. There is a misunderstanding of the fact that UV and blue light are the same, however. The UV portion of the spectrum is much shorter wavelength than the blue portion but there are still many wavelengths that are harmful to the eyes, namely near-infrared light.
Because blue light is not visible to the human eye, it is a very common light that people use to test UV filters. UV filters work by blocking certain wavelengths of UV light. If you are wearing a filter that blocks UV light, the resulting blue light will be blocked and because it is shorter, it will not be visible to the human eye.
This is a quick and simple test that you can do at home. The first step is to put a small flashlight into the top of the filter glasses. The light will not be visible to the naked eye, but the filter will block most blue light. Next, shine a small flashlight into your eyes and wait a few seconds to see if the light is blocked. If yes, you know you are wearing a UV filter.
I am a believer in UV filters and I usually wear one on a regular basis. That’s because I work in a factory that is exposed to a lot of sunlight and UV can be a real killer. But I tend not to go out because I’ve seen people die from UV damage. But when you do, there is no reason to wear a filter. A good number of people wear them, but it is not necessary.
Some of the best UV filters protect against blue light. They are called “blue light filters” because they block UV light.
Blue light filters block blue light. They are also good for protecting against the sun, but they cannot protect against blue light.
To protect against blue light, most UV filters include a blue light blocking filter. They are also good for protecting against UV, but not so good for protecting against blue light. Blue light filters can block the blue light from most types of UV light, so they are good for protecting against UV damage. But blue light filters cannot block blue light from the sun. To protect against blue light, it is best to use UV or amber light filters.
