Flashlight Enthusiast
I bought a nice pair of shades but when I tested them at home they didn't block UV light even though they were rated 100% uv. So I tried all my glasses with my black light, and only 2 made the black light look like it was off. One cheap plastic yellow lenses (Anarchy supreme) and the other amber lenses(OP). My polarized glasses blocked about half the uv.
I am going to start carrying my uv keylight to test glasses when I try them. I probably will buy glasses I like even if they are not uv blocking.
Is this just a feature of yellow lenses? Maybe some others will share their experience with uv blocking glasses.
Also, I see on CSI they use amber plexiglass to filter for UV. Usually it is attached to the flashlight. Maybe it would be easier to just get glasses.
If you tested your glasses for UV and you want to share, please indicate maker or photo.
