THE SCIENCE
Exposure to blue and green light (short wavelength light) at the wrong time of day can hinder your ability to wind down for sleep and disrupt your circadian rhythm. In modern society, artificial light from cell phones, computers, overhead lights, and other sources are prime offenders. Even minimal artificial light exposure can interfere with your natural rhythm and suppress melatonin production, a crucial hormone for sleep regulation. Our Wind Down™ lenses have been designed to filter out the light in the 400-520nm range of the visible light spectrum. When worn at night, these lenses help prevent disruption and support keeping your brain and body in sync with your circadian rhythm.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How are these glasses different from traditional blue light glasses?- ROKA’s Wind Down™ lens technology has been scientifically designed with Dr. Huberman to go above and beyond traditional blue light filtering. ROKA’s lenses not only filter blue light but also filter most of the green light in the short wavelength light spectrum, providing superior protection.
- Additionally, ROKA uses premium optics with advanced anti-scratch, anti-reflective, and hydrophobic coatings for improved functionality and durability.
- The blue and green light we’re looking to filter out exists in the shorter wavelength range of the visible color spectrum (around 400–500 nm). Just like with old film cameras, in order to effectively filter out certain colors, you have to use a filter from the opposite side of the color spectrum. In this case, because we are filtering blue and green light, we need to use a lens material that has a red/orange tint. So the lens actually has to be that color to effectively filter out the blue and green light.
- These lenses are designed for nighttime use only, the critical period of the day when exposure to artificial lights, screens, etc. can be disruptive.
- We do not recommend wearing these during the day. Dr. Huberman has shared numerous times that scientifically speaking, we actually want exposure to short wavelength light (blue and green) throughout the day to promote wakefulness and to maintain our circadian rhythm. The problem with short wavelength light comes in the evening and at night, when it can be a disruptor. These glasses are designed to filter that disruptive light in the evening.
- Artificial lights in the short wavelength spectrum (i.e., blue and green) can increase the stress hormone cortisol and suppress the natural production of melatonin, a hormone the body produces to help regulate its natural sleep cycle and circadian rhythm. By using our Wind Down™ filtering eyewear, you can reduce that disruption and give your body its best chance of transitioning to sleep.
- Under normal lighting conditions, ROKA’s Wind Down™ lenses filter 100% of the visible blue light spectrum and most of the green light spectrum.
- We understand. This is an unfamiliar technology to many, and the idea of looking through colored lenses can take some adjustment. To help support your purchase, ROKA offers a no-hassle 30 day moneyback guarantee. We’d encourage you to try them out and see how they feel. It may take a couple days to get used to them, but some find that they feel calmer and more relaxed even in the first session of use.
- The Wind Down™ lenses are not meant for driving, and we advise you not to wear while operating machinery of any kind.
