(1) Blue UV Capture™ lens feature blocks at least 20% of blue-violet light (up to 455nm, with the greatest toxicity between 415-455nm). For Polycarbonate concave lenses, the blue light blocking percentage might be slightly lower. 
(2) UV radiation and blue light. Your exposure to UV radiation depends on your lifestyle but just as your skin needs protection outdoors, so do your eyes. Blue light impacts reduces contrast and may have an impact on visual fatigue but this is a multifactorial phenomenon.
(3) Blue UV Capture™ lens feature combined with Crizal® coating have a front and back side UV protection up to E-SPF 35™ index.
