ColorView® is designed to help differentiate "confusing colours" better. However, we believe each person perceives colours differently and we cannot make any analysis without an exam from a qualified ColorView® ophthamologist.
How to use
Is it safe to use ColorView® lenses all day long?
ColorView®lenses do not affect your eyes or your colour vision. However, in some cases, colours you see by using ColorView® lenses might differ from what you used to.

We do not suggest using ColorView® in situations where colour perception is critical to the safety of you or others you come in contact with.

Exams and License

For your safety, please do not drive a car or operatevehicles while wearing ColorView® lenses. Since the lens cuts out a specific wavelength of light, your visual field may darken and some colours may become difficult to see.
