Yes, our glasses are made in China and Taiwan!

Often synonymous with very poor quality merchandise (and even let's be frank, often counterfeit), " made in china " or " made in taiwan " can on the contrary be a sign of quality in the optical industry 😍 ( provided to meet certain criteria !).

We have found the rare pearls: workshops and factories located between China and Taiwan (depending on the model of glasses, the materials used, the "phase" of design), capable of respecting technical specifications and registered technologies 🔥

Nevertheless, we are aware of the environmental and social issues that this implies 👇👇👇

1/ Social

The factories and workshops with which we collaborate are carefully and frequently audited and comply with recognized international standards (in particular the SA8000 standard ), which guarantee humane and ethical manufacturing practices.

2/ Environment

Logistics : Our imports are mainly done by boat rather than by plane (We are currently working to favor the train in the long term).
Manufacturing : We are in the design phase of new frames based on natural and recycled materials. At the same time, our factories comply with the ISO 14001 standard .
Donations : We are members of 1% for the planet in order to be able to donate 1% of our sales to French associations which fight daily to counter the effects of climate change ( in particular Terre & Humanisme )

According to the Ministry of Health and the ANSES report (2019) : " Recent scientific data, taken into account in the context of the new expert appraisal, make it possible to establish that the phototoxic effect on the retina of an exposure acute (less than 8 hours) to blue-rich light has been proven and that the role of chronic exposure of the retina (several years) to blue-rich light on the occurrence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has also been proven "

Everyone talks about it but few really seem to measure the impact it can have.

Unfortunately, some brands even add confusion and distrust, by not being transparent about the filtrations offered.

The most harmful blue-violet light is that between 380 and 450 nanometers , because its very short waves are the most energetic and therefore the most harmful to the eye. These are the ones to be avoided.

With our Amber filters, you get more than 86% filtration against the harmful spectrum. With our Clear filter, more than 60% filtration is achieved.

Every day we are exposed to screens for about 6 hours, and the increasing use of new technologies leads to overexposure of the eye to harmful blue light.

Visual fatigue and sunlight disorders are recognized short-term dangers. Vision loss (AMD), attention deficit (ADHD), potentially long term. Although there is still a lot of research being done on the long-term effects, many effects are now recognized by the scientific community.

Software and apps block blue light directly on your computer or smartphone screen. They work either by transforming the color in the video driver, or with a color filter on top.

It's quite effective and frankly we recommend them, most of them are free! It is better to install software than to do nothing. ( our article here for more info on anti blue light applications )

But the protection is not total. They are not able to block all the blue light emitted, nor even to block the LED backlight.

The glasses protect you from all sources of blue light. It is difficult to reduce the blue light of your television screen for example if you play in console mode, or when it comes to LED lights on the ceiling.

If you are in an environment where you switch from one screen to another (group work, coworking, etc.), then blue light blocking glasses also allow you to be better protected.

If it's a question of price, we offer ultra-efficient models with our latest technologies, starting at €34.90!

It depends on the intensity of your protection.

We have designed one of the most powerful glasses on the market in transparent glasses. In " Clear " filtration, the lenses offer an almost invisible color distortion for optimal protection for everyday use.

With the intense " Amber " lenses, we have chosen an amber-colored lens to reduce color distortion as much as possible while having really intensive protection for the big players. ( Our filters and technologies are among the best on the market. )

In any case, even with a slightly changed color, you will adapt to it very quickly. Within minutes, you won't even notice them!

If you are a graphic designer or a photographer and you need a visual of your screen with an exact color, a quick glance over the glasses and you're done.

For the moment we only offer our glasses in standard model, without correction.

We are in full development of these new models which should be offered in 2023

If you wear contact lenses, our glasses will fit you perfectly.

Opticians now tend to offer a blue light filter on prescription glasses, but we must admit that we are not very satisfied with it.

The level of filtration offered is often very low, so check with your optician. ( Mention the 380-450nm spectrum to ensure the seriousness of the answer! ).
