The story behind AVEN
AVEN started with a simple question.
One evening, I was lying in bed scrolling on my phone long after I should have been asleep. I felt tired, yet I couldn't fall asleep. I started reading about potential causes, and one thing kept coming up: exposure to bright light from screens late at night – especially blue light.
That’s when I discovered blue light blocking glasses. At first, I thought I would just buy a pair for myself. But the more I read about them, the more I noticed that many of the options either had an uninspiring design or felt like a cheap accessory rather than a product you would actually want to use every day.
That was when the idea for AVEN was born.
The goal was to create a pair of glasses that combine a modern, timeless design with lenses developed for people who spend many hours in front of screens. Whether you are a student, work in an office, a gamer, or simply use your phone a lot during the day, I wanted to create a product that both looks good and feels natural to wear.
Blue light is a natural part of the visible light spectrum and is found both in sunlight and in digital screens such as mobile phones, computers, tablets, and TVs. During the day, blue light plays an important role by helping us feel awake and alert. In the evening, however, heavy screen use can make it harder for the body to prepare for sleep, because blue light can affect the body's natural circadian rhythm. This is why many choose to wear blue light blocking glasses when working late, studying, gaming, or using digital devices before bedtime.
At AVEN, we want to be transparent about what the product does. Blue light blocking lenses reduce the amount of blue light that passes through the lens, but the experience can vary from person to person. Therefore, AVEN is not about promising miracles – it is about offering a well-thought-out product with a focus on quality, comfort, and a design you actually want to use every single day.
