NoIR Wraparound – Filter 11 Amber Macular Degeneration Glasses – 25% VLT

NoIR Filter 11 features an amber lens with 25% visible light transmission (VLT). This filter is designed for blue-light reduction and macular degeneration and can also help reduce glare and improve visual comfort in everyday lighting situations. NoIR’s current catalog also describes Filter 11 as useful for sensitivity to indoor lighting, contrast enhancement, and overcast conditions.

These are wraparound glasses, not fit-overs. Choose from several medium and large frame styles to find the shape and fit that works best for you.

Are these glasses helpful for macular degeneration?

They may be a helpful option for people with macular degeneration who are bothered by blue light, glare, or changing light conditions. NoIR specifically categorizes Filter 11 for macular degeneration and blue-light reduction.

The amber lens may also make contrast more noticeable for some wearers, which can be useful when moving through everyday environments where details are difficult to distinguish.

What does 25% VLT mean?

25% VLT means the lenses allow approximately 25% of visible light through.

That makes Filter 11 noticeably darker than a lightly tinted lens while still allowing substantially more light through than NoIR’s very dark filters. It can be a practical choice for people who need glare reduction without an extremely dark lens.

Where can I wear Filter 11 glasses?

These glasses can be useful for bright indoor environments, shopping, errands, outdoor activities, overcast days, travel, computer use, and other situations where blue-rich light or glare causes discomfort.

NoIR specifically describes Filter 11 as useful for indoor-light sensitivity, contrast enhancement and overcast conditions.

Are these fit-over glasses?

No. The frames offered in this listing are wraparound styles designed to be worn directly on the face. They are not designed to fit over regular prescription eyeglasses. NoIR currently classifies Frames 35, 52, 73, 74 and 45 as wraparound frames.

Can I drive while wearing Filter 11?

With 25% VLT, Filter 11 is intended for brighter conditions and is not appropriate for night driving. Because amber lenses alter color appearance, anyone considering them for daytime driving should first make sure they can clearly distinguish traffic lights, signs and road conditions.
