UV420 Blue Cut Optical Lens

Extend your ocular safety with a 420nm cutoff, shielding your eyes from the harsaging HEV spectrum.

Product Introduction

Introduction: The Science of UV420 Total Protection

Standard UV protection typically stops at 380nm or 400nm, but modern research shows that High-Energy Visible (HEV) light up to 420nm poses a significant threat to ocular health. Our UV420 Blue Cut Optical Lenses are engineered using advanced molecular technology to provide a "hard stop" at the 420nm threshold. By incorporating specific absorbing agents into the lens substrate, we provide a more robust shield than traditional surface coatings alone. This makes the UV420 series a premium choice for individuals who prioritize long-term preventative care against cataracts and macular degeneration, while maintaining the highest levels of visual clarity.

Beyond protection, these lenses are crafted to offer a superior aesthetic experience. Many UV420 lenses on the market suffer from a noticeable green or purple residual reflection; however, our vacuum ion-plating technology ensures a subtle, professional finish. The material's high Abbe value means minimal chromatic aberration, providing the wearer with crisp, edge-to-edge vision. Whether you are navigating a sun-drenched outdoor environment or a harsh fluorescent office setting, these lenses adapt to provide consistent, all-day relief. They represent the pinnacle of balanced optical engineering—where high-tech protection meets everyday comfort and style.

Technological Highlights: Premium Monomers and Coating Integrity

  • High-Purity Monomer Selection: We exclusively use high-performance monomers (e.g., MR-series) to achieve superior tensile strength and optical purity, resulting in excellent clarity and minimal risk of yellowing over time.
  • Precision Liquid Casting Process: The lenses are produced via a controlled liquid casting method that ensures uniform material density and refractive index consistency across the entire blank, which is critical for accurate therapeutic power zones.
  • Advanced Vacuum Multi-Coating (SHMC): Coatings are applied in a high-vacuum chamber, using multiple layers of metallic oxides to create a durable, anti-reflective stack. This process guarantees maximum light transmission and minimal glare.
  • Thermal Curing Optimization: A slow and precise thermal curing cycle is employed to maximize the material’s resistance to internal stress, ensuring the finished lens remains stable and optically perfect under varying temperature conditions.
  • Integrated Peripheral Defocus Geometry: The therapeutic design is engineered into the mold itself for cast lenses, or applied via digital surfacing for semi-finished blanks, guaranteeing the accuracy and consistency of the myopia control zone geometry.

Application: Comprehensive Health Use Cases

  • Outdoor Enthusiasts: Superior protection for those moving between indoor and outdoor high-UV environments.
  • Children & Teens: Crucial for protecting developing retinas from both natural sunlight and digital screens.
  • Post-Surgery Patients: Ideal for eyes requiring maximum protection from HEV light following cataract surgery.
  • Graphic Designers: Optimized for those who need UV420 protection without sacrificing color fidelity.
  • Daily Commuters: Reduces glare and light scatter from both the sun and artificial street lighting.

Advantage: Elite HEV Shielding

  • Extended UV Threshold: Superior 420nm cutoff compared to industry-standard 400nm lenses.
  • Substrate-Integrated Protection: The blocking power is in the lens itself, so it won't wear off over time.
  • Superior Clarity: High-purity resin ensures maximum light intake for vibrant, sharp vision.
  • Blue-Violet Reflection: Specialized coating reflects the most irritating blue-violet light away from the eye.
  • Anti-Static & Anti-Smudge: SHMC coating keeps lenses cleaner for longer periods during heavy use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Q: What is the difference between UV400 and UV420?
  • A: UV420 blocks an additional 20nm of high-energy visible light, which is more damaging to the retina than standard UV.
  • Q: Is UV420 better for digital screens?
  • A: Yes, it targets the high-energy blue light peak that most digital devices emit.
  • Q: Does the lens have a yellow tint?
  • A: Our UV420 lenses are formulated to be exceptionally clear with almost no perceptible yellowing.
  • Q: Can these lenses be tinted?
  • A: Yes, they can be further tinted for sun protection while maintaining UV420 properties.
  • Q: Are these available in 1.67 index?
  • A: Yes, we highly recommend the 1.67 index for a perfect balance of thinness and UV420 protection.
  • Q: Does the coating scratch easily?
  • A: No, our SHMC treatment includes a double-sided hard coat for superior scratch resistance.
