Acuvue Oasys 1-day Max is the main line of contacts from Acuvue that has a blue light filter. Alcon also has Total 30 contacts and their Dailies Total 1 for Astigmatism that has some blue light blocking technology. Each of these lenses do have a slight yellow tint, but difficult to notice when wearing them. Acuvue Transitions lenses also blocked a little bit of blue light, but as of January 2024, these contacts have been discontinued.

Yes they do I used to get really bad headaches and now I don’t

[@America12412]

Thank❤ you 😊 great information

[@DrEyeGuy]

You're welcome! Thank you for watching!

[@julilla1]

Very cool that you can get this on contacts now. I did try a pair of blue light blocking glasses and I didn't notice any less eye strain, but it's hard to know who makes a solid pair and which ones are substandard.

[@DrEyeGuy]

Thanks for commenting. Even with the legit well-made blue light glasses, some people don't notice a difference with them.

[@Cliche8701]

You should get a thorough eye exam that also takes a look at your binocular vision (your eyes' ability to cooperate). Furthermore, a dry eye exam would would also be wise to analyze your tear film. Sincerely, an optometrist

[@louisehepplewhite]

I’m currently trialing the Acuvue Oasys Max and would suggest if you already have green eyes to give these a miss. Although they do seem to be better for my dry eyes that the Acuvue daily moist in certain light I’ve had comments from multiple people that my eyes look noticeably extra green to one person saying they looked like avatar eyes 😅 Not quite the look I think most people would want. Would be curious to know how other eye colours compare with these lenses.

[@doctorsmith]

I do feel like it takes the edge off the brightness of the sun somewhat when I’m outside. This is speaking about when I wear blue light blocking glasses and contacts. And I think the yellow tint should be considered if the patient is a graphic designer or in some field of work where exact color perception is very important.

[@DrEyeGuy]

Awesome comment Dr. Smith. Thank you!

[@Yoonuss]

Is zeiss is good brand for blue light blocking?

[@deredere_official]

As someone with severe photophobia and Astigmatism my options are limited.

[@patiencevanvalin2327]

Although I was curious if the brand Hubble contacts have that blue light filter and I can’t figure it out if someone could help I would appreciate it

[@emirwhoelse760]

Hey doc, I’m curious about your opinion on trying monthlies. I love acivue Oasys bi weekly’s but I’ve been on a budget recently and curious on trying acuvue vita I had used acuvue moist but my vision was terrible always cloudy I have an astigmatism is there any other recommendations of other contacts just to take note of

[@DrEyeGuy]

I have a lot of patients that actually do better with Vita lenses... coming from Oasys lenses.

[@Who-cu9eu]

@@DrEyeGuy I have chronic light sensitivity so is there any red tinted contacts out there because red colour blocks the most blue light or at least orange coloured tint contacts?

[@Thomas-uy4vn]

Could we have a video about floaters anxiety ? Thanks doc it's always interesting
