How does the blue light reduction technology work?
This filter uses patented Eyesafe® RPF60 Technology to selectively filter 60% of blue light at the 435-440 nm wavelength, which is identified as most concerning for eye health by standards like ICNIRP and ANSI. It reduces potential eye strain and discomfort during extended use while maintaining color accuracy and display clarity.
