You asked and we listened! After getting feedback from our customers that they would like lenses with blue light protection that can be demo'd for patients; IcareLabs is proud to now offer our new Blue Guard lenses that will be able to do just that!

Let's take a look at availability and how this new line will fit into our other house brand and name brand lens offerings. We'll also breakdown what your patients can expect with this fantastic new option providing protection from harmful UV and blue light.

- Available in single vision, Heritage, Legacy, and Shamir progressives

- Materials: CR-39, polycarbonate, trivex, and 1.67 (high-index)

- 3x the blue light protection of standard lenses

- 100% UV protection

- Suitable for both children and adults

- IceAR and IceAR with Silk compatible!

Much more long-term studies will be needed before we fully understand the possible damage our eyes may be experiencing due to constant exposure to blue light in our digital devices and the world at large. But almost anyone that spends a moderate amount of time in front of digital devices can tell you, the effects of digital eye strain are very real, well documented, and experienced by many of us.

Our new Blue Guard line of lenses will help protect your patients with several options to fit almost all of your patients lifestyles. A simple "needs-based" conversation should help you qualify your patients on the level of blue protection best suited for them.
