Can You Get Blue Light Glasses with a Prescription?

Yes — the filter can be added to prescription lenses, or get a plain pair if you don't need correction.

Yes, you can get blue light filtering in prescription glasses — it's a common add-on. If you already wear prescription glasses, you don't necessarily need a separate pair; many opticians can add a blue light filter to prescription lenses. For people who don't need vision correction, non-prescription (plano) blue light glasses are widely available.

So the options are: prescription glasses with a blue light filter added, or plain blue light glasses with no vision correction. Which you need just depends on whether you wear a prescription. If you do, talk to your optician about adding the filter when you next get lenses; if you don't, a non-prescription pair covers screen comfort. Either way, an eye care professional is the right person for prescription questions. More in our buyer's guide.
