Can You Add Blue Light Filter to Outdoor RX Pairs?

Short answer: Yes. And at Blinded Wear, there’s no catch—we include blue light filtering as an option on outdoor RX glasses without upcharges.

Whether you’re warming up courtside with a playlist, coaching drills from an iPad, or working a tournament booth between matches, you’re spending time in front of screens—even outdoors. That’s where blue light filtering becomes essential. And for RX wearers, combining that protection with outdoor lens performance is a game-changer.

💡 Why Blue Light Matters in Outdoor Play

While most people associate blue light protection with laptops and phones, it’s just as relevant for athletes:

  • 📱 Training apps, scoreboard tablets, and GPS devices
  • 🎧 Screen-based warmups or interval timers
  • 💻 Mid-match coaching or strategy sessions from digital tools

Even if you’re on an outdoor court, your eyes are toggling between the sun’s glare and digital backlight. That flickering contrast causes eye fatigue, slows visual processing, and worsens headaches—all of which affect your reaction time.

Adding a blue light filter to your outdoor RX glasses stabilizes visual input, improves clarity in shadowed areas, and reduces squint-based strain during downtime.

🔵 What Our Blue Light Filter Actually Does

Our blue light filter is not a separate coating you have to baby. It’s baked into the lens material—compatible with your full RX prescription (single or progressive), and works seamlessly with:

In short: any RX lens you get from us can include blue light filtering by request.

📊 Benefits of Blue Light Filtering in Match Play

Still wondering if it matters mid-match? Here's how it affects your game:

  • Less eye fatigue during transitions between shaded areas and devices
  • Better vision lock when checking scoreboards or stats between sets
  • Improved sleep cycles after late-night screen exposure—critical during tournaments

And since all our filters are embedded, there’s no haze or weird color cast—it just works.

🔄 Combine With Transitional or Gray Lenses

Some players assume blue light filters and sun-blocking lenses don’t mix. But with our lens tech, you can combine both in a single RX lens:

  • Gray + Blue Light = Sun performance + digital screen clarity
  • Transitional + Blue Light = Auto-adjusting tint + digital protection

Perfect for players who go from bright courts to phone apps, or train across changing light zones.
