FAQ
Questions
Evening Light Glasses
What do the tints actually do?
They warm and soften the cool light of screens in the evening. Standard is a lighter everyday wind-down tint; Deep is deeper, for the last hour before bed. They make late-night screens easier and warmer on the eyes. They are a comfort and wind-down accessory, not a medical device.
When should I wear them?
In the evening, once the lights are low and the screens are still on: after dinner, through a film or some reading, up until you put your phone down for the night.
I already use Night Shift on my phone. Do I still need these?
Night Shift dims the screen but still lets a lot of blue light through, and it does nothing about lamps, the TV, or other screens in the room. Nordew filters the light at the lens, wherever it comes from. Night mode and the glasses work best together.
Does everything look strange through the tinted lenses?
Colours turn warmer, a little like firelight. Most people adjust within a minute. You wear them in the evening while you are already winding down, not in the middle of the day, so the warm tone is exactly what you want then.
What is the difference from ordinary blue-light glasses with clear lenses?
Clear lenses filter only a small part of the blue light and are made for daytime use at the computer. In the evening, when the body should start producing sleep hormone, you need a tinted lens that blocks far more. That is why Nordew's evening lenses are amber and wine-red, not clear.
Do they really work?
Blue light in the evening signals to the brain that it is still daytime and slows the production of melatonin, the hormone that makes you sleepy. By filtering that light out, you let the body start winding down on time. The glasses do not do the work for you, but they remove what gets in the way.
Standard or Deep: which should I pick?
Standard (amber) is the lighter everyday wind-down tint for the evening; Deep (wine red) is deeper and best for the last hour before bed. Many people wear Standard through the evening and switch to Deep as bedtime gets close. We break it down in our guide: amber vs wine-red lenses.
Are they prescription? What size?
No. They are not prescription glasses and are not corrective eyewear. They come in one size with a flexible, lightweight frame designed to suit most faces.
Are they a medical device?
No. The Evening Light Glasses are a wellness and comfort product. They are not a medical device and are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any condition.
How do I care for them?
Wipe the lenses with a soft, slightly damp cloth and store them somewhere safe when you're not wearing them. Avoid abrasive cloths and harsh chemical cleaners, which can wear the lens coating over time.
Orders & Shipping
How long does shipping take?
It depends on whether the item is in stock in Sweden. Items we hold in stock are usually dispatched within one business day and arrive in 2–3 business days with PostNord. Items marked as made to order are processed within 1–3 business days and then take 6–14 business days depending on country: Sweden 7–14, fast EU countries such as Germany 6–12, other EU countries 8–14. Which of the two applies is shown on the product page, and the exact estimate for your address is shown at checkout. You will receive a tracking number by email once your order ships.
Where do you ship from?
Part of our range is held in stock in Sweden and shipped by us with PostNord. Everything else is shipped by our fulfilment partner outside the EU. The product page shows which applies before you order. Every order is tracked door to door.
Will I pay extra VAT or fees on delivery?
All prices include VAT, collected at checkout. Orders shipped from our stock in Sweden are sold with Swedish VAT included. Orders shipped by our fulfilment partner are imported with import VAT settled by the partner at the point of sale. Either way you won't be asked to pay additional VAT or customs fees on delivery within the EU.
Can I return my order?
Yes. You have a statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, plus a voluntary 30-day return window on top of that. Email hello@nordew.com with your order number. See our Refund Policy for full details.
