We were curious about the glasses from Spektrum Glasses which are aimed to protect your eyes from harmful blue light, the kind that you get bombarded with from heavy laptop and cell phone use.
Spektrum Glasses for Eye Protection
Want to protect your eyes without losing all the colors of the rainbow? That’s where Spektrum Glasses come in.
The PROSPEK line of glasses are Spektrum’s blue light blocking glasses. All PROSPEK lenses are polycarbonate which adds to their durability, a great feature for avid travelers.
The Elite blocks the most harmful blue light while allowing all the other colors through. Want to watch a movie at midnight and then catch up on emails right before bed? ProSPEK-99 protects you from 99% of all blue light.
Anti-Blue light lenses help prevent macular degeneration, dry and sore eyes and loss of sleep.
Let’s face it – blue light emitted by electronic devices are very real and we’re getting more and more of it as we spend increased time on our devices, both at work and at home, which isn’t healthy for our eyes.
They recommend their Spektrum glasses that block 99% of blue light if you spend a significant amount of time on your devices, especially during the day and in the evening.
The frame is durable and the plastic is flexible which makes it a useful solution for those with an active lifestyle as well. Think mountain biking or hiking. They also work well for those who tend to fall asleep on the couch while watching Netflix — you know who you are! :-)
One size fits most faces and the styles are unisex, making it easy to swap between family members in one household. Each pair of glasses includes a case and cleaning cloth as well, so you’re set to go as soon as your pair arrives.
ProSPEK-50 blocks the most harmful blue light while allowing all the other colors through. These glasses are ideal for office workers and people that don’t want that harsh yellow tint.
We think the ARCTIC by Spektrum Glasses are sleek, stylish and oh so cool.
The Arctic blocks out the recommended 50% of blue light, allowing your eyes to blink and perform naturally when you’re using your Computer, iPad, Laptop, Tablet, Cell Phone or PC Gaming Equipment, a better solution for day use.
Every pair of retro eyeglasses comes with coating that blocks 100% of UVA and 100% of UVB Rays. Each lens from Spektrum glasses also feature:
- UV Light Blocking
- Anti-Scratch
- Anti-Reflective
- Anti-Screen Flicker
- Anti-Glare
- Blue Light Reduction
- Anti-Fog
- Anti-Oil (Fingerprint Resistant)
- Electromagnetic Ray Blocking
While we didn’t test the glasses they call Movie Star Junior, we thought we’d mention them since they offer glasses for kids in a more vibrant and fun color.
These glasses feature a unique joint that allows the glasses to fit children as they grow. The idea is: unlike shoes, you won’t have to buy a new pair each year.
Also included is an extra set of arms if one gets lost or damaged and a strap for around the neck to reduce the likelihood of them getting lost.
Head on over to their website for more information on their strengths and features as well as other design and style options. Here, you can order a pair (or two) for yourself. They’re reasonably priced so make a great holiday gift as well.
