When were the first glasses invented?
No one knows when the first pair of glasses were invented, but we do know that the grinding techniques for making simple magnifying glasses have been around since 1000 AD, especially in regions where glasses were already produced (including northern Italy). The earliest artwork of glasses appears in the Treviso Cathedral fresco painted by Tommaso de Modena in 1352. There is reliable evidence that eyeglasses were invented in Italy in the late 13th century. The first pair we think of as eyeglasses appeared in Italian pizza in the late 12th century and looked more like two small magnifying glasses (made of raised glass) riveted together at the top of the handle. In 1266, The English Franciscan Monk Roger Bacon wrote about the scientific principles of corrective lenses, but there is no evidence that he applied this knowledge to the manufacture of eyeglasses.
How to Test Computer Glasses (Clear Glasses)
First, we will show you how to test computer glasses with clear glasses.
1. Ask for Blue Light Glasses Brand Spectrum Report
To find out whether your blue light glasses are the best computer glasses, you should contact the company you bought them from and ask for a spectrum report. It will show you how much blue light your computer glasses can block.
After sending the spectrum report to you, you should make sure that your computer glasses are able to filter at least 30% blue light, otherwise, they are unsafe.
2. Use the Lens Reflection Test
As for how to test computer glasses, you can use the lens reflection test. You can see what color the light is that reflecting off the lenses.
If it reflects the blue light, they are filtering some blue light. If the reflection is violent or purple, the computer glasses may be not effective.
This is a good way for you to perform a blue light test at home.
The clear frame is paired with wire glasses.
Compared to traditional chunky glasses, gold-rimmed glasses have less color saturation, so they are almost skin-neutral. Gold-rimmed glasses and clear frames are similar in style but more decorative. The geeky-chic style has become popular since the Gucci fashion show, which started with large frames. Who says you can't be stylish with glasses?
Advantages of aspheric lenses
In reality, aspheric lenses were originally born to improve the marginalized optical properties of spherical lenses. The aspheric lens with special coating treatment has perfect visual performance, with a clearer, more comfortable visual effect. You can hardly feel the presence of aspheric lenses when you put them on. So you can enjoy the ease brought by aspheric lenses. They are more natural and more realistic, having less visual distortion. The aspheric lens can be designed with a flatter base arc, which not only makes the appearance beautiful but reduces the peripheral magnification so that when others look at the eyes of the people who wear glasses, the size will not change much.

Benefits of Blue Light Glasses
In this section, we will show you the benefits of blue light glasses.
- Relieve eye discomfort with blue-light blocking glasses. Excess device usage can lead to computer vision syndrome or digital eye strain. Blue light glasses can enhance your focus and reduce eye strain, resulting in making your eyes feel less tired and improving productivity. Another way to reduce eye strain is to make sure you take regular breaks from the screen.
- Blue light glasses can affect your sleep. Blue light has a high energy frequency that can increase alertness and delay the body’s release of melatonin, which helps induce sleep. In general, you had better not use blue light devices one to two hours before sleep. Blue light glasses can reduce the impact of blue light, enabling you to use your devices before bed and still get a good sleep.
- Blue light glass can help reduce the likelihood of Age-Related Macular Degeneration. AMD is a leading cause of blindness. Blue light blocking lenses can help avoid or delay this condition by preventing blue light from impacting your eyes.
Of course, besides those benefits, there are some other benefits of blue light glasses. For example, blue light glasses can relieve headaches.
