EyeQLenz™ With Zenni ID Guard™: Multi-Spectrum Performance Meets Digital Privacy

Block facial recognition, blue light, and UV rays—EyeQLenz™ with Zenni ID Guard™ protects privacy with pink-lens style.

Written by Will Jones

The modern world is full of surveillance and digital voyeurism. As technology continues to evolve, it is becoming more difficult to safeguard your own privacy against increasingly advanced digital entities. One of the most prominent ways this is occurring lately is actually not in the digital landscape at all, but rather in the real world. One growing concern? Facial recognition technology being used in everyday spaces, from retail stores to transit systems. Fortunately, EyeQLenz with Zenni ID Guard™ helps to shield clients’ privacy and preserve their anonymity.

Eye care can be expressive: EyeQLenz™ with Zenni ID Guard™ pairs a fashion-forward pink-sheen lens with UV, blue-light filtering, light-adaptive comfort, and an anti-IR coating, making performance and style coexist in the same frame.

Innovation In Eye Care

Dr. Steven Lee is a leader in the fields of eye care and telemedicine, serving as the Director of Digital Innovation at Zenni. He has built a remarkable career by combining his formal training in eye care, engineering expertise, and a passion for innovation. Prior to working on the online vision testing vertical, Dr. Lee practiced clinically from 2007 to 2013, specializing in complex contact lens fittings, ocular disease treatment, and dry eye management.

The increasing deployment of infrared-based biometric surveillance and facial recognition, frequently without your awareness, has raised worldwide privacy concerns. Zenni ID Guard™ introduces an innovative, accessible eyewear solution designed to counteract this intrusive tracking. Recognizable by its subtle iridescent pink sheen, this feature signals that your privacy is safeguarded. Although it may affect some IR-based device unlocking functions, it offers comprehensive defense across multiple spectrums, including UV blocking, blue light filtering, light-adaptive, and anti-IR coatings.

Designed With Fashion And Function In Mind

Zenni led the way in the online eyewear market in 2003, aiming to make glasses affordable and accessible for all. Starting at under $10 for complete prescription pairs, Zenni provides adults and children the freedom to see clearly and showcase their style through a wide selection of high-quality prescription glasses, sunglasses, performance eyewear, and non-prescription glasses, all designed with a focus on fashion and vibrant style.

Looking Out For Your Eyes

In this way, the EyeQLenz with Zenni ID Guard™ is the culmination of a career full of remarkable work. The Zenni ID Guard™ technology is also available for other types of lenses, with more options and increased availability coming soon. Even as it pushed the boundaries of technology, these items provide a trendy and very sleek aesthetic that is directly plugged into modern fashion. On top of all of this, it pairs premium tech with approachable pricing.

As Dr. Steven Lee concludes, “Eyewear should be as expressive as it is functional. EyeQLenz™ with Zenni ID Guard™ has a subtle pink sheen that feels fashion-forward while also working hard in the background — blocking harmful rays, enhancing comfort, and even helping reduce how much infrared is used to scan your face. It’s a blend of style, health, and modern awareness — smart design that looks as good as it feels.”
