Abstract

Several designs have been done using computer software. This scientific research involves applying calculations and designing nano-layer software for eyeglass lenses to protect against ultraviolet rays. Blocking wavelengths below 380 nm was demonstrated by the transmittance curves of the visible and ultraviolet spectra. Multiple design configurations were explored, ranging from single-layer to multi-layer structures. These designs effectively reduced ultraviolet radiation for glass lenses, thereby protecting the human eye. When the vision adopted the reference wavelength (550 nm) and wavelength spectrum (380 nm to 700 nm), these (UV) rays were shielded.
