Eyeglasses which filter out the very specific wavelengths allow the wearer to see a full color 3D image. Special interference filters (dichromatic filters) in the glasses and in the projector form the main item of technology and have given the system this name. It is also known as spectral comb filtering or wavelength multiplex visualization.
A photochromic eyeglass lens, part of the lens darkened after exposure to sunlight while the other part remained covered. A photochromic lens is an optical lens that darkens on exposure to light of sufficiently high frequency, most commonly ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Glasses with a notch filter (e.g. EnChroma glasses) filter a narrow band of light around 590 nm that excites both the L- and M-cones (yellow-green wavelengths). [12] They are often combined with an additional stopband in the short wavelength (blue) region to minimize the tint on the lenses and approximate a neutral-density filter. They improve ...

[44] [59] Although generally transparent to visible light, glasses may be opaque to other wavelengths of light. While silicate glasses are generally opaque to infrared wavelengths with a transmission cut-off at 4 μm, heavy-metal fluoride and chalcogenide glasses are transparent to infrared wavelengths of 7 to 18 μm.

Oxide glasses fall into a range of n d from 1.4 to 2.0 and ν d from 20 to 90, with SiO 2 being the oxide glass with the highest contringency and lowest index. Fluoride glasses can go up to ν d >100 and nd<1.4, BeF 2 being the fluoride glass at the highest constringency and lowest index. Chalcogenide glasses have indexes exceeding 2, a large ...
