Professional Colorimetry Evaluation in London
Common signs of visual stress include eye strain during reading and frequent headaches caused by certain patterns or colors. If you notice these symptoms, the first step is a comprehensive eye examination. If needed, we’ll follow up with a colorimetry assessment to identify the specific color that best relieves your discomfort. Based on the findings, we can prescribe precision-tinted lenses customized to your individual needs.
Frequent indicators of visual stress
Visual Fatigue or Unease
Eye strain occurs when your eyes become tired from prolonged activities such as reading or extended screen time. Common symptoms include soreness, a burning sensation, or a heavy feeling around the eyes—often resulting from overworked eye muscles.
Vision Distortion or Double Images
Blurred vision makes objects appear out of focus, while double vision causes a single object to appear as two. These issues can stem from poor eye coordination, focusing difficulties, or refractive errors, all of which can interfere with clear and comfortable vision.
Light-Induced Headaches
Prolonged close-up activities like reading or using a computer can lead to headaches, especially around the forehead or temples. This discomfort is often caused by eye muscle strain and can intensify the longer the visual effort continues.
Sensitivity to Light
Photophobia, or light sensitivity, leads to discomfort or even pain when exposed to bright light. Often linked to eye strain or visual stress, it can make it difficult to tolerate both natural sunlight and artificial lighting.
Dryness or Excessive Tearing of the Eyes
Prolonged visual activities can lead to dry eyes from reduced blinking, or excessively watery eyes as a reflex response. Both conditions cause discomfort and may intensify the effects of visual stress over time.
Trouble Focusing or Tiredness
Visual stress can make it difficult to concentrate, especially during extended reading or close-up tasks. As the eyes work harder to maintain focus, fatigue sets in—leading to overall tiredness and reduced attention span.
Calming Tinted Lenses: Alleviating Visual Stress
Soothing tinted lenses are specially designed to ease visual stress by filtering harsh light and minimizing glare. Featuring gentle hues like light pink, blue, or green, these lenses help relieve eye strain, headaches, and light sensitivity often caused by prolonged screen use or reading. By softening visual input and enhancing contrast, they promote greater comfort and focus—making them a beneficial option for individuals affected by migraines, digital eye strain, or conditions such as Irlen Syndrome. Ideal for everyday use, they significantly enhance visual comfort.
Once the most effective color is identified, we’ll create custom precision-tinted lenses tailored to your needs. These lenses can be seamlessly fitted into either new or existing frames.
