Trend alert! Yellow-tinted lenses and sunglasses are making a comeback, with celebrities such as Jeniffer Lopez and reality stars like Kendall Jenner wearing these types of eyeglasses.
But, don't be mistaken in thinking these yellow-tinted glasses are just for fashion, they have health benefits, reducing eye fatigue from harmful blue lights emitted by screens.
Let's explore all the benefits of yellow sunglasses and lenses below, as well as the type of yellow glasses you can choose, frames, and our collection of yellow glasses at GlassesShop. Besides, GlassesShop offers various tint options for glasses, clear lenses for prescription glasses, and prescription sunglasses with many color options.
The Benefits Of Yellow Sunglasses
Enhances Contrast
Yellow lenses or sunglasses can enhance contrast. This can make them especially useful during activities that need precision such as fishing, reading, sports, or driving.
No matter the lighting conditions yellow sunglasses will increase depth perception and detail compared to wearing regular glasses.
Reduces Glare
Glare-reduction in yellow lenses can help to reduce brightness and any discomfort from headlights, the sun, or streetlights, this can be especially helpful when driving at night to reduce distractions.
Improves Depth Perception
The yellow color in these lenses can help with visual clarity and contrast. This is especially useful in activities where you need fine motor skills or where you need to judge distance accurately, such as in golfing or sewing for example.
Reduces Eye Strain
A pair of yellow-tinted prescription glasses is a must if you're in front of a screen all day, this is because these glasses block harmful blue light from artificial lighting which can contribute to eye fatigue.
They would be very useful if you are working on your laptop late at night to reduce the effect blue light can have on disrupting your sleep.
Night Vision Enhancement
For driving at night, as we mentioned earlier, wearing yellow-tinted glasses can be very beneficial since they reduce glare from other cars' headlights and street lamps. This makes driving at night safer and more comfortable.
What To Consider When Choosing Yellow Glasses
Yellow-tinted sunglasses and yellow lenses come in different styles and types to consider, what you will be using them for will determine which type of glasses you choose.
Yellow Prescription Sunglasses & Customization
Yellow lenses can be customized into prescription sunglasses with polarized lenses, yellow-tinted sunglasses, and mirrored lenses.
Polarized yellow sunglasses provide additional protection from glare and harsh lights thanks to the coating, making them ideal for outdoor activities. Mirrored lenses on the other hand are more stylish and also provide glare protection and increased clarity.
Prescription-wise, you can customize your yellow sunglasses to your specific needs, whether it’s single vision, progressive lenses, or reading glasses.
For those who don’t need yellow-tinted sunglasses 24/7 but would find them useful in certain activities such as night driving or when in direct sunlight, we have clip-on sunglasses such as the Amos and Hodgson. Both are suitable for indoor and outdoor usage.
The Best Frames For Yellow Lenses
The next most important factor to consider with your Yellow lenses is the glasses frame.
Common materials we have for yellow lens frames at GlassesShop are acetate glasses, which are superior to standard plastic since they are stronger and more flexible, and TR90 eyewear frames which are an extremely comfortable and flexible type of thermoplastic.
Apart from the material, we also have three different colors you can choose from; black, tortoiseshell, or clear depending on your preference.
