Affordable Colour Blind Glasses at USJ Optometrist

USJ Optometrist in Malaysia offers FDA-approved Chromagen lenses for color blindness plus expert care for dyslexia and keratoconus at affordable price

Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you couldn't distinguish between red and green traffic lights? Or if reading became an exhausting puzzle of jumping letters rather than a pleasure? USJ Optometrist offers specialised care for those with colour vision deficiency and related conditions, helping thousands of Malaysians turn daily struggles into clear experiences. For thousands of Malaysians living with colour vision deficiency or conditions like dyslexia, these aren't hypothetical questions—they're daily realities.

When I curiously looked into specialized vision care options in Malaysia, I stumbled upon something that genuinely surprised me: out of the estimated 5,000-7,000 optical shops scattered across the Malaysia, only THREE centers are qualified to prescribe proper Chromagen lenses for colour blindness. And sitting quietly in Taipan, Subang Jaya is one of them—USJ Optometrist.

USJ Optometrist—Not Your Average Optical Shop

Let me be clear—I'm not affiliated with USJ Optometrist. I'm just someone passionate about connecting people with life-changing services they might otherwise never discover. And this place? It's definitely worth knowing about. And let me tell you, if you or someone you care about has struggled with colour vision deficiency, dyslexia, keratoconus, or other complex vision needs, this place is a true lifesaver.

Established back in 2011, USJ Optometrist isn't just another glasses shop. It's a specialized optometry practice staffed by five full-time optometrists, each boasting over a decade of experience after cutting their teeth in clinical settings with ophthalmologists. They’re passionate clinical eye care providers, not salespeople. That’s a huge difference you just can’t fake.

The Colour Blind Glasses That Actually Work

Here's something that blew my mind: colour blindness affects approximately 8% of men worldwide. That's a lot of people who've never seen the full spectrum of colours around us!

As aforementioned, USJ Optometrist is one of the extremely rare providers of FDA-approved Chromagen lenses in Malaysia—the real deal, not those questionable "colour blind glasses" you might find online that offer more hope than help.

• Lead Optometrist Darren Ho said:
• "Genuine Chromagen lenses have multiple colours and densities to precisely match the specific wavelengths a colour-deficient person is missing."

What makes these colour blind spectacles special is they're completely customized. The optometrists at USJ actually let you test different lenses to see the difference with your own eyes before making a purchase. And here's the kicker—these lenses can help wearers pass the notoriously difficult Ishihara colour vision tests used in medical exams and job screenings.

What’s different about Chromagen at USJ Optometrist?

If you’ve ever Googled “colour blind glasses Malaysia” or “FDA approved colour blind lens,” you’ve probably seen Chromagen pop up. But there’s a catch: there are a lot of fakes out there.

• Authentic & FDA Approved: Only genuine Chromagen lenses here, no knock-offs.
• Personalised Testing: Clients can try them on in-store—see the world in colour for the first time!
• Custom Options: Multiple colours and densities (not the “one-size-fits-all” fakes).
• Pass the Ishihara Test: Chromagen can help you pass crucial medical screening for jobs, licenses, and more.

Here’s something a lot of people don’t realize: with a proper colour vision test in Subang Jaya at Usj Optometrist, they’ll match you with the precise filter your eyes need. The Chromagen contact lenses are especially popular because, honestly, who wants to advertise their situation? These lenses are discreet—only a small colour spot right over the pupil, invisible to most people (even nurses and doctors!). The glasses version works great too, though some folks prefer contacts for cosmetic reasons.

And if durability is a concern—don’t stress. With proper care, those soft Chromagen contacts can last a long time.

Beyond Colour Vision: Other Specialty Services

While their expertise with colour vision deficiency treatment is impressive, USJ Optometrist offers several other specialized services rarely found elsewhere:

1. Dyslexia Lenses

Did you know specialized glasses can help some people with dyslexia? These aren't magical cures, but the right dyslexia lenses can reduce visual stress and make reading significantly more comfortable for many sufferers. Finding an optometrist in Malaysia who understands this specific need is surprisingly difficult—USJ Optometrist is one of the few.

2. Keratoconus Lenses

For those with keratoconus (a progressive eye disease that causes the cornea to thin and bulge into a cone shape), finding properly fitted lenses can be nearly impossible through standard optical shops. The team at USJ has specialized equipment and expertise to help manage this challenging condition.

3. Orthokeratology (Ortho K) Lenses

Want to see clearly during the day without glasses or regular contact lenses? Ortho K lenses are specially designed rigid contacts worn overnight that gently reshape your cornea while you sleep. By morning, you remove them and enjoy clear vision throughout the day—no daytime lenses needed! It's particularly popular for controlling myopia progression in children.

4. Other Specialized Services

They also provide solutions for ocular migraines, prosthetic lenses, and prism lenses for double vision. If you've been told "nothing can be done" about your specific vision issue, these folks might prove that wrong.

How USJ Optometrist Customizes Specialty Lenses—and Makes Them More Accessible

I understand that USJ Optometrist goes beyond just offering rare lenses—they're big on making things work for real people, whatever their day-to-day needs happen to be.

The Science Behind the Tints

For those with dyslexia, you might notice the blue-tinted lenses they offer. These aren't a fashion statement; the blue tint can actually help some individuals with dyslexia reduce visual stress, making words on the page steadier and easier to follow. It's surprisingly effective for the right people, and I love how USJ Optometrist carries these bespoke solutions rather than one-size-fits-all promises.

Meanwhile, if color vision deficiency is your concern, you’ll likely be introduced to the reddish Chromagen lenses. What’s especially cool is that these color blind glasses come in various densities and shades—each one targeting different types of color blind challenges. No two cases are exactly alike, so having multiple options really maximizes the potential for a wow-worthy improvement.

Smart, Flexible Solutions for Everyday Lifestyles

One of the cleverest features I learned about is their ability to provide Chromagen lenses as clip-ons. If you wear corrective lenses for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, you don’t have to order an expensive custom pair every time your prescription changes. Instead, USJ Optometrist can prescribe Chromagen lenses with zero power (“plano”) and fit them into a clip-on frame that you can attach whenever necessary. 

Honestly, that’s a win-win: it’s not only more cost-effective—since replacing standard prescription lenses costs less than full Chromagen lenses—but it also extends the lifespan of your specialty lenses.

Chromagen Lens Pricing & Discounts

Naturally, specialty lenses aren't cheap anywhere in the world—that's just the reality of customized medical devices. But what surprised me was learning how reasonable USJ Optometrist's pricing is compared to similar services elsewhere.

The Price Factor: Surprisingly Affordable

Genuine Chromagen lenses are typically RM 4,300–4,500 a pair, with final cost depending on the density and customization needed (different densities suit different types of color deficiency). But USJ Optometrist makes an effort to keep things accessible—discounts are available, so it’s definitely worth discussing if affordability is a concern.

I've heard that even Singaporeans (who typically enjoy higher purchasing power) make the trip across the border specifically to visit this shop because the value proposition is so compelling. When Singaporeans are willing to travel for Malaysian optical services, you know the pricing must be good!

For Malaysians concerned about affordability, I'd suggest not letting price assumptions prevent you from at least consulting with them. From what I understand, they genuinely try to make these life-changing lenses accessible to those who need them.

Appointment, Eye Checks & Special Offers

If you’re interested in checking whether Chromagen or dyslexia lenses could help you (or your child), the process is refreshingly transparent:

• Book an appointment: Simply WhatsApp their shop number at 0146665348 to arrange your eye check and lens testing.
• How much does it cost? They normally charge RM 350 for the entire assessment and lens testing process. However, here’s a little bonus—if you go ahead with purchasing the Chromagen lenses, they’ll waive the RM 350 consultation fee entirely.

That kind of flexibility and transparency isn’t always easy to find, especially when it comes to niche medical devices.

USJ Optometrist doesn’t just lead in expertise—they also innovate to make specialty lenses accessible, cost-effective, and truly personalized for Malaysian families. If you’re curious, drop them a WhatsApp at 0146665348—it could be the start of seeing the world in a new light!

A Reference Center for Medical Professionals

Perhaps the most telling endorsement comes from the medical community itself. Government hospitals and private medical centers throughout Malaysia regularly refer patients to USJ Optometrist for specialty lenses—a level of professional trust that speaks volumes.

When ophthalmologists (medical doctors specializing in eye care) send their patients somewhere, it's not a recommendation they make lightly. Their reputation is on the line too.

What to Expect When You Visit

Located at 28, Ground Floor, Jalan USJ10/1E, Taipan, Subang Jaya, Selangor, the shop might not look extraordinary from the outside. But inside, you'll find equipment and expertise that sets it apart from 99% of optical shops in the country.

If you're seeking help for colour vision deficiency (colour blindness), expect a thorough assessment using various tests beyond the standard Ishihara plates. For the Chromagen lens fitting, you'll actually get to experience the difference yourself—seeing colours you may have never properly perceived before.

For other specialized needs like dyslexia or keratoconus lenses, the process involves detailed measurements and discussions about your specific symptoms and challenges.

When Specialized Care Makes All the Difference

I'm particularly struck by stories about how proper vision correction changes lives:

• The medical student who finally passed his colour vision screening after getting Chromagen contact lenses
• The child who went from struggling reader to bookworm after being fitted with the right dyslexia glasses
• The artist who cried upon seeing the full spectrum of colours for the first time

These aren't just vision corrections—they're life transformations.

What Clients Are Saying: 100% 5-Star Reviews

Another thing that truly sets USJ Optometrist apart is their outstanding reputation among clients—something you can't fake in today's world of online transparency. With a perfect 100% 5-star rating on both Google and Facebook, the praise speaks volumes about their commitment to genuine care and service. Theresa, for example, described her visit as "truly refreshing," highlighting how she never once felt judged by her appearance or assumed budget, and was always treated with respect and kindness. She appreciated the helpful, attentive staff and honest, pressure-free advice.

Kelvin, another happy client, raved about the durability and comfort of his photochromic lenses—still going strong after three years—and was especially grateful for the optometrist’s professional guidance during his visit.
