What do you do when you love movies but have photosensitive epilepsy and are not sure if the movie has flashing lights?
If the glasses are what's called z-blue tint, or Z-blue lens then it should be fine. The only issue is I'm not sure whether there is some kind of certify thing they use to guarantee the tint is more chance of working. There are a few brands out there that make these that are well known as good glasses I'm not sure what they are though You may want to google "Z-blue glasses for epilepsy".
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member I found glasses like that on Amazon just now but how do I know it will work for epilepsy?
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member How do I get glasses and TVs like that? I'm a filmmaker so I need it.
You can get tvs now that minimise their effects of this otherwise you would need to where photo sensitive protective glasses.
