Understanding Light Sensitivity
Light sensitivity, or photophobia, is more than just a nuisance—it can significantly affect daily life. People with dry eye, migraines, post-surgery eye conditions, or certain autoimmune disorders often struggle with harsh lighting, glare, or outdoor sunlight. Specialized glasses can provide relief and help you stay comfortable throughout the day.
Depending on the severity of photosensitivity, 7eye offers light sensitive customers 4 different extra dark lens options in category 4 and category 5:
· Gray 12% Light Transmittance
· Polarized Gray 11% Light Transmittance
· Extra Dark Gray 3.8% Light Transmittance - Category 4
· Ultra Dark 0.5% Light Transmittance - Category 5
Brands like 7eye by Panoptx and Ziena Eyewear have designed eyewear specifically for those who need protection against light sensitivity.
For people suffering from dry eye, light sensitivity, or chronic irritation, protective eyewear can be life-changing. Two of the most recommended options in the market are 7eye AirShield and Ziena moisture chamber glasses. But which one is right for you? This guide compares the two so you can make an informed choice.
Dry eye affects millions of people worldwide, causing discomfort, redness, and light sensitivity. Everyday activities like reading, working on a computer, or even going outdoors can become frustrating. Fortunately, specialized eyewear can make a huge difference. Brands like 7eye by Panoptx and Ziena Eyewear have designed glasses specifically to help people with dry eyes maintain comfort while protecting their eyes from wind, dust, and harsh light.
Customer:
Compared to other people’s comments, I haven’t been able to
feel the same comfort. Only one day felt really good – that day I had the
eyecup just lightly touching my skin, not tight. I tried the same setup on the following
days but didn’t feel any difference, and sometimes it felt worse. It hasn’t
been a full week yet, do you think my eyes might adjust over time and it could
get better? Also, maybe the frame doesn’t fit perfectly? When I take the
glasses off, I can feel that my eyelids have become moist, but my eyes themselves
don’t feel the same relief and that really disappointed me.
7eye:
Let’s try to figure this out. The seal around your eyes –
how is that seal? I did see earlier there was a small gap at the bottom of your
eyes. But to me, that’s a good seal Is there any other gap? A way to tell if
the gap is bothering you or the seal is good is to simply walk around the room
and see if the slight air in your glasses would bother your eyes.
