[Reducing Eye Fatigue] Is Blue Light Blocking Eyewear Essential for Modern People? Introducing Eyewear with Blue Light Blocking Lenses I METRONOME

Hello, I'm OKD from METRONOME-Tokyo Online, the official Japanese online store for METRONOME DESIGN INC., the London-based eyewear and sunglasses brand that sells METRONOME®.

This site mainly sells original brand eyeglasses/sunglasses frames and delivers them nationwide.

Spring weather is finally here. However, UV rays are still present in spring, so it's important to take care of your eyes.

On the other hand, blue light is something we are exposed to year-round, just like UV rays. If you ask whether it is as harmful as UV rays, the answer is no. However, because it has an eye-stimulating effect, looking at a smartphone or computer screen for too long before bedtime, for example, can make it harder to fall asleep and can also affect the overall quality of your sleep.

If you continue to look at blue light for a long time, the stimulating effect will continue, so it cannot be said that there is no problem at all. I think that if you mainly work at a desk, it is a good idea to take measures to protect yourself from blue light.

The eyeglass frames sold on this website are equipped with demo lenses or blue light blocking lenses. Therefore, if the latter (i.e., glasses with blue light blocking lenses) are equipped, you can use them as glasses for desk work as they are.

For example, glasses from the brand "Trad" are generally equipped with blue light blocking lenses. The model shown in the previous photo is Trad's "Lily" flip-up lens type glasses. The next photo shows a Trad eyeglass frame, which also has blue light blocking lenses.

Made of beta titanium, these glasses are hypoallergenic. They are also very light and easy to wear. They come in a wide variety of colors, so we hope you find a design and color that suits your taste.

In addition, the brand name "Resonance," known for its good cost performance, also offers frames equipped with blue light blocking lenses. For example,

This is the collaboration frame "Infected," which was released in 2021. It is a substantial frame with a comfortable fit. All frame colors come standard with blue light blocking lenses.

If you prefer a thicker frame, choose Resonance, and if you prefer a lighter, slimmer frame, choose Trad. There are also slight differences in the "cutting power" of the blue light blocking lenses.

I saw them at a certain eyeglass chain store, but the lenses with strong blue light blocking power looked a bit yellowish, or rather, colored.

On the other hand, if you prefer a clear lens, I think it would be best to choose normal blue light blocking lenses.

Alternatively, the lenses are interchangeable, so you can change them to your preferred lenses after purchase.

We have introduced blue light blocking lenses that are both stylish and practical.

Well then (OKD)
