From Darkness to Light

Discover the journey behind Fovea Blue™ and our commitment to your well-being.

The story of Fovea Blue™'s founder, Karolina, forms the foundation of OUR MISSION:

“To deliver vitality (energy) and tranquility in the digital age, through high-quality blue light blocking eyewear”.

How It Started

In 2021, I suffered a severe brain injury due to improperly administered medication. 

One of its effects was extreme light sensitivity (photophobia). 

I spent two years in complete darkness, unable to tolerate light. 

Despite the immense challenges, through an anti-inflammatory diet, my own research, and a lot of patience, I was able to reclaim most of my health.

I am still in recovery and my current most prominent challenge is the lingering sensitivity to artificial lights. I could never understand why these are specifically the artificial lights that cause me so much trouble. I tried to understand it and found out that there are good reasons for it.

Why Artificial Light is Harmful

First of all, those lights, unlike the sun, flicker at a high frequency. This in itself causes increased stimulation of the visual cortex that can result in headaches, nerve pain and migraines.

Another problematic aspect of artificial lightning is that the LED light spectrum shows a clear spike in blue light in comparison to natural light. Blue light has been shown to be especially triggering for people with migraines. This reveals another reason for the potentially more harmful effect of the artificial light on the human eyes.

I discovered that LED light exposure negatively affects many people, disrupting sleep, reducing energy levels, and impacting overall well-being.

Why Fovea Blue™?

I have done all the research and I have tested multiple types of lenses. ‘What good is that knowledge if it only serves me?’, I thought. This is the reason I have decided to create Fovea Blue™ that further informed the company’s vision: to provide eyewear that empowers individuals to thrive in the digital world, fostering a balance between technology and well-being. 

Because of my research and lived experience, I understand the importance of health and I understand more than most people, the harmful effects that the artificial lightning can have on health, be it in people with neurological issues or not.

Most health accessories are useful but lack a sleek design.

Fovea Blue™’s goal is to bridge that gap. My goal was to create glasses that are useful, comfortable and with a design that turns heads (cause you look so good).
