TheraSpecs Contrast HEV Styles


Man Wearing TheraSpecs Contrast HEV Lenses

Sharper contrast for a fresh view

Contrast HEV™ helps you see the world in higher definition. By filtering the high-energy visible light below 455nm that our eyes don’t focus well, this lightly tinted yellow lens brings greater visual contrast and sharpness for your favorite activities. If screens or bright lights give you visual discomfort, we suggest making Contrast HEV part of your light management toolkit.

Contrast HEV is also light enough that it is legal to wear while driving at night in most locations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Contrast HEV

Does Contrast HEV filter blue light?

Yes, Contrast HEV targets the highest energy wavelengths in the blue spectrum (455nm and below). Exposure to this blue light can decrease visual contrast, making it harder for your eyes to focus.

Like all TheraSpecs lenses, Contrast HEV also blocks 100% UV light and features an anti-glare coating to further enhance your visual comfort.

How does Contrast HEV compare to typical blue light glasses?

Contrast HEV filters more blue light than blue light glasses with clear or nearly-clear lenses, making it a more protective option for your favorite activities like gaming, using your computer on phone, and watching TV.

By filtering out more blue light than other glasses, Contrast HEV can enhance visual contrast—giving you greater clarity, sharpness, and comfort.

Can I wear Contrast HEV while driving at night?

Yes, Contrast HEV is light enough that it is legal to wear while driving at night in most locations. In particular, if you are wanting greater visual clarity and contrast on the road, we recommend Contrast HEV.

If you experience sensitivity to headlights or other bright lighting while driving at night, try Flex instead.

Is Contrast HEV right for me?

We recommend Contrast HEV if you are regularly exposed to artificial blue light from screens or other sources, which makes it harder to distinguish details, see with sharpness, or gives you visual strain and discomfort. Contrast HEV can also be worn for night driving, if you seek improved visual contrast.

If you are light sensitive and want even more protection against artificial light, consider FL-Pro or FL-Blend.

If you're still not sure, you can answer a few questions and get instant recommendations from our lens assistant.

Can I get Contrast HEV in my prescription or as readers?

Absolutely! You can get Contrast HEV lenses with your prescription, or with reader correction. Simply tap/click on your preferred frame style above, choose either "Prescription" or "Reading Glasses" under Lens Correction, and complete the rest of the options before adding to your cart.

What if Contrast HEV does not work for me?

You have 60 days for returns or exchanges of all non-custom TheraSpecs, so you can make sure Contrast HEV is the best option for your needs. If you are wanting prescription or reader TheraSpecs, we suggest starting with one of our fully-refundable fitover styles.
