Product detailed description
Stylish Mitochondriak® blue light blocking glasses that block 100% blue light
Casual but practical and stylish at the same time, these glasses for men and women block blue and green light. They are designed to be worn 2 to 3 hours before sleep. Less blue and green light in the evening means a weaker daytime signal to your body clock, so the glasses do not hold back your evening melatonin.
BASIC PARAMETERS
Our Mitochondriak® glasses are designed to be as practical and aesthestic as possible, suitable for outdoors, eating out, shopping, and all kinds of social events while also being efficient. Their dark-red lenses block 100% blue and green light up to 550 nm.
-
Glasses are for men and women.
-
Inner width is 13.1 cm, though hinges are flexible and can be adapted to a narrow or wide head shape!
- Lens material: Polycarbonate
- Temple length: 140 mm
- Lens width: 50 mm
- Bridge width: 20 mm
- Cleaning cloth: included
- Size of the protection case (lxwxh): 16 x 7 x 6,5 cm
We don't guess, we measure. We measured an ordinary white LED bulb at 50 cm, once without the glasses and once through their lenses. Without glasses 1,018 lx; through the glasses, 210 lx of pure red light remained.
- Blue and green light up to 550 nm: 100 % blocked (measured transmission 0.0004 %)
- Signal to the body clock: 99.7 % lower (melanopic EDI from 618 to 2.1 lx)
- Red light at 630 nm: 84 % passes through, so you still see well in the evening
- Filter edge (50 %): 600 nm
Why up to 550 nm? Melatonin also responds sensitively to green, not just blue. And why a shape that looks good? Light from the front and from above acts most strongly on the body clock, and that is exactly where the glasses protect.
Technical data: polycarbonate lenses, black frame, lens width 50 mm, bridge 20 mm, arms 140 mm, weight 18 g, case and cloth included. All parameters are listed in the Specification tab.
Why should you wear blue light blocking glasses?
In our modern world telephones/smartphones have become a necessary part of our everyday life. We use them not only for work and communication, but also for entertainment. However, we should be aware that constant exposure to blue light, especially at night, which is emitted by these screens, is a serious problem for our health mainly for these two reasons:
- Blue light stimulates melanopsin, which can set (or disrupt) our circadian rhythm.
- Blue light suppresses melatonin (the sleep hormone), which worsens our sleep.
While exposure to natural sunlight during the day helps regulate (and reset) our circadian rhythm and supports wakefulness, darkness and the absence of blue light at night signal the body to produce melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep.
The general recommendation is to wear them regularly 2 to 3 hours before sleep. You should wear them mainly in the evenings and before sleep.
However, if you are a biohacker, a perfectionist, or simply a person who wants to do the maximum for your health, we recommend that you follow the seasons. This means that in the summer you can start wearing them later, not long before sleep, whereas in the winter when it becomes dark early, you can start wearing them as early as 5 pm or 6 pm.
The glasses are aesthetically pleasing which makes them easy to wear at social events. We've been doing it for years.🙂

WHY SHOULD WE BLOCK BLUE LIGHT?
Do you often watch TV late into the night or work at your computer? Maybe your eyes feel tired or your sleep feels worse. Screens and many modern light sources emit a high share of blue light. We cannot avoid it completely, but in the evening we can reduce it, for example with blue light blocking glasses, that reduce the blue and green light reaching your eyes in the evening and help preserve your melatonin levels, and improve your circadian rhythm as well as sleep quality.
If you are interested in reducing the negative effects of artificial blue light in your household, try the Mitochondriak ® indoor lightning solutions. Your home atmosphere can also be improved with Mitochondriak® red light therapy devices which work with red and near-infrared light.
Would you like to learn more about red and near-infrared light? Circadian rhythm, sleep quality and the studies behind light are topics we explain in detail. You'll find more information on the effects of red light on human body on our blog.
