Have a pt. who wants to make his third pair (after opthalmic and suns) "party" glasses and have them tinted blue. This got me to wondering about the safety of such an endeavor. With the launching of Provencia and Recharge, I've been reading a good deal about HEV/blue light hazards, and it seems that a blue tint would serve to amplify blue light, potentially putting my pt. at risk. Am I being overly cautious, or should I advise my pt. to pick another color?
