Written by the company

Ra Optics began with a personal mission: to transform health by understanding light's profound impact on human biology. In 2007, founder Matt Maruca faced debilitating health challenges that conventional medicine couldn't resolve. After years of searching through diets, supplements, and treatments, he discovered something revolutionary-the critical role light plays in every aspect of our health. This revelation led to a decade of deep research into photobiology, circadian rhythms, and the effects of artificial light on human wellness. Frustrated by the lack of scientifically-backed, premium blue light protection available, Matt created his own solution. By 2017, Ra Optics launched as the world's first truly premium, science-based blue light protection eyewear—setting a new standard for how we interact with light in the modern world. What started as one person's health journey has evolved into a movement, helping 100,000+ customers worldwide reclaim their health and unlock their unlimited potential through The Science of Light.

Red glasses

I bought a pair of glasses bc my nutritionist recommended them, I was experiencing blood sugar swings and he mentioned that light and circadian rythm needed to be adjusted along with stress management and mineral supplementation. It's been over 6 months I'm using the red glasses and it's been amazing, I can wind down easily and I used to have a lot of issues to sleep, now is so much better. I have more resilience and I don't have much light sensitivity like I used to have.

Hi LC, this is exactly the kind of feedback that reminds us why we do what we do. The connection between light, circadian rhythm, blood sugar regulation, and sleep is something we are deeply passionate about, and it is wonderful to hear that your nutritionist understood that relationship too. Six months of better sleep, easier wind-downs, and reduced light sensitivity: that is a real, meaningful change. Thank you for sharing it. — the Ra Optics team

Great quality products!

This is a great company with quality products. I first found out about them from a podcast. I heard Matt speaking about circadian rhythm and he was so knowledgeable. I checked out their website and I had never heard of daylight glasses but the science was interesting.

I purchased a pair and have been using it ever since. This was back in 2020 during covid. I was at home on the computer more than ever and it relieved all my symptoms (headaches, eye strains, energy, focus, sleep etc.)

Yes the products are a bit pricey but if you benefit from it then its worth it. I'm glad I purchased my pair and I highly recommend them.

Hi Richard, six years and counting since 2020, that says everything. We are so glad Matt's conversation on that podcast led you here, and that the science resonated enough to give it a try. Headaches, eye strain, energy, focus, sleep: when the right light environment is in place, the downstream effects can be remarkable. Thank you for the kind words and for recommending us. It means a great deal. — the Ra Optics team

I wear Ra Optics everyday at work while at my computer and I’m very confident they help reduce eye strain and fatigue. The glasses themselves are made from quality materials and are sturdy as well as aesthetic.

Hi Asher, daily computer use is exactly where the Daylight lens earns its place. Reduced eye strain and fatigue, quality materials, and a frame you actually want to put on: that is the standard we hold ourselves to. Thank you for the kind words. — the Ra Optics team

Eye Relief

I purchased the Clyde - Daylight 7 months ago and have noticed a huge improvement in my eye health. Due both on-line work and classes, my eyes were constantly hurting and I was becoming desperate. I tried another brand of cheaper blue-light glasses and could not tell any difference. I decided to try RaOptic and immediately felt relief. My eyes gradually returned to normal without any discomfort.

My eyes are still sensitive and if I forget to wear the glasses while on the computer, they will tell me. But I can quickly put on the Clydes to find relief.

I was quite sceptical about the price but they have been worth it. Thank you!

Hi M., this is exactly the kind of story that matters to us. Trying a cheaper alternative, feeling no difference, and then finally experiencing real relief: that journey is one we hear often, and it speaks directly to why the science and lens quality behind our Daylight glasses are non-negotiable for us. Seven months in, with eyes that have genuinely recovered, the Clydes have clearly earned their place. Thank you for giving them a chance, and for taking the time to share this. — the Ra Optics team

Excellent Customer service

I had a few questions on purchasing as I bought for my daughter and myself and customer service got right back to me and followed up with me when I didn't respond for a few days. Excellent customer service and I love the glasses. My only other comment is I would love these in a bi focal.

Hi Amy, it means a great deal to hear that the experience from first question through to wearing the glasses has been a positive one, for both you and your daughter. On bifocals: it is a request we hear and genuinely appreciate. We cannot share timelines at this stage, but feedback like yours is exactly what shapes where we go next. Thank you for the kind words. — the Ra Optics team

Gold standard in blue blockers!!

Ever since I first started waring these glasses it’s changed everything about my nighttime routine. I ware them every night about 2-3 hours before bed to wind down and then I also couple it with my alpha stem device that is for my TBI treatments… I have over 20…being a retired Army veteran I take my recovery very serious these days. These glasses are the gold standard in my recovery process!!!!

not as good as suggested

They are okay but not as good as suggested! They don't stay on well, I had to place rubber O rings on the hinges and that is a bit of a pain. Feel like they are over priced and with the issues therefore not worth the cost. Sorry just letting you know the truth. At this cost and value I would not suggest to others. Wish my experience was better. Regards RC

I have stayed on the mailing list because I appreciate the education and podcasts you offer related to light.

I’ve been a loyal RA Optics customer…

I’ve been a loyal RA Optics customer since my very first order (#1202) back on April 2, 2019. Over the years I’ve purchased six pairs of their blue-light-blocking glasses for myself and my family — they’re simply the best. The quality, comfort, and how much they’ve helped our sleep and eye health is unmatched.
Recently I had a total user-error moment — I accidentally left my favorite red-lens Popp sunset pair in a shirt pocket that went through the wash and dryer. I reached out to customer service fully expecting nothing, but I was blown away by their response. Jacqueline (Chief of Staff) personally replied, thanked me for my loyalty, and kindly offered a one-time courtesy replacement even though it was clearly outside of warranty. She was professional, compassionate, and made me feel truly valued.
RA Optics isn’t just selling glasses — they’re a Southern California company that actually cares about their customers. Jacqueline’s quick and generous help turned a disappointing situation into one that makes me even more loyal. If you’re looking for top-tier blue-light glasses and incredible service, look no further. I can’t recommend them highly enough!
Thank you Jacqueline and the entire RA Optics team — you’ve earned a customer for life!

Hi Robert,

This truly means so much to read. It was an honor to help, and honestly, with loyalty like yours going all the way back to order #1202, taking care of you was the easiest decision I've made. Seven years, six pairs, and your whole family — that's everything we work for at Ra Optics. I'm glad we could turn a frustrating moment into something that reflects what this brand is really about. Thank you for trusting us and for sharing your experience so generously. We'll see you for many more orders to come. — Jacqueline

Thrilled!

Was very skeptical because the price is a bit higher than other blue light blocker brands I've tried, but I am very pleased. These are notably higher quality than any of the others I own and I notice a much strong affect. They lenses are very comfortable on the eyes, I forget I have them on until I take them off and realize how bad the lighting can be in the office and especially from the TV.

Definitely the best in class, other brands are cheaper for a reason.

Worth every penny, and more

The glasses arrived in beautiful, high quality packaging and included a protective case and cleaning cloth. Comparing them to my expensive sunglasses, I can tell these frames are made from high quality materials, and the design is beautiful. After about 2 weeks, I can already feel a noticeable difference in my sleep quality. I'm falling asleep faster and waking up less in the middle of the night. I've tried many other blue light glasses, but these are by far the best. Well worth the price, I'll be buying another pair soon.

In a nutshell..Cheap Chinese products with flaws... BEWARE~!!

In a nutshell...

Cheap Chinese glasses with flaws. Stay away especially if you are not from the USA and you have to pay due and tax on top of it. RA Optics handles that too but they probably scam on that as well...

If you are from USA you can try it for yourself as it should be easy to return them if you are not satisfied.

I bought 4 glasses total. 2 yellow/daylight Maxwell came fine although made in China and super cheap plastic...

other 2 Sunset Maxwell had flaws = black dust/spots/specs imbedded inside the lenses=permanent

They have sent me 2 more glasses with other problems even though I have asked specifically to inspect them thoroughly before shipping... absolutely pathetic...

- black specs/dots inside the lenses = permanent
- burnt plastic (temple arm)
- random paint blobs
- chipped plastic (frames)
- unfinished/scraped plastic in some places

Everything screams the opposite of what they say on their site...

Consider yourself warned.

The Most Stylish Blue Light Glasses!

Sharing my experience with Ra Optics...

Between the quality, customer service and overall vibe of this brand, I'm a huge fan.

Met the owner and the team at the Health Optimisation Summit in Austin last year. They shared about their scientific advisor who rigorously tests these to ensure the lenses are the best on the market.

Overall, I feel great when I wear these every day. My Oura Ring sleep score improved dramatically. Averaging 90+ now!

Good, but some flaws

I do like these blue light filter glasses. I liked how you could bend them to make them fit your head. It took time to have them adjusted so it could fit me perfectly. I do feel better mentally while wearing them.

A couple flaws is that they are made in China and there are no nose pieces by the nose. So I have to constantly pull my glasses back up and it is annoying. If they put nose pieces on there and these glasses were not made with cheap plastic from China, then I would have given this product a five star review.

I inquired to this company about where they are based and their products are made. They indicated they make their products in China where they are located but ship from California. That’s a good trick. This company has refused to honestly answer my questions. In my opinion this is yet another fake Chinese company. Stay far far away! I’ll update this review if I ever hear back from them.
