Are digital screens harming your well-being? We might just have the solution.
Working with screens can be tiring. But, like a lot of people we spoke to, we couldn’t find a solution that worked and looked good.
That’s why we decided to create LUMES, computer glasses that not only do a great job of filtering blue light, but blend with your personal style too.

What is blue light and how does it affect us?
Blue light is a segment of the visible light spectrum responsible for keeping you alert. It’s naturally present in sunlight, but is also concentrated in the light that comes out of the LED screens on the digital devices you use – phones, tablets, laptops.
Blue light gives your brain a signal that it’s time to wake up and be alert. But extended exposure to blue light can have a significant impact on your well-being – headaches, eye irritation and fatigue are all common symptoms of blue light exposure.
Plus, by restricting the production of melatonin (a chemical which helps us sleep), blue light disrupts your natural sleep cycles causing you to feel tired, irritable and unproductive.
Will LUMES work for me?
We designed LUMES blue light blocking glasses to filter some of this harmful high-energy blue light before it reaches your eyes. This keeps your eyes feeling fresh, reduces dryness and allows you to focus for longer when you use digital devices.
By reducing your exposure to blue light in the evenings, LUMES computer glasses will also help you get a more restful night’s sleep.
Reading from screens makes your eyes more tired than reading from paper. That's because digital displays add contrast, flicker and glare so your eye muscles work harder. Our lenses are engineered to reduce glare so you can read more comfortably and reduce eyestrain.
We want you to feel comfortable wearing LUMES with any style, in any situation. Computer glasses can often look unstylish or unattractive with obtrusive yellow-tinted lenses. We've carefully designed our lenses so that they are practically clear - you can feel happy wearing them wherever you are doing.
