What can I use for light sensitivity?

Dear ${Cases.Contact Name},

For light sensitivity, we have antiglare lenses which protect the eyes from the artificial lights eg. lighting bulbs.
Blue block lenses that protect the eyes from the blue light emitted by digital screens as Computers & Smartphones and photochromic lenses that protect the eyes for the harmful UV rays from the sun.

The price of lenses depends on your prescription and choice of lenses.

A pair of clear plastic lenses can start from as low  RW 25,000 with anti-glare and RWF 40,000 with both photochromic and anti-glare.
Our clear blue block lenses start from RWF 50,000 and RWF 65,000 for blue block photochromic lenses.
We have more lens options above these that we can provide information on in any Optica store you would visit.
