Visual Optimizer (formerly B.I.+), or V.O. for short, puts an end to eye strain. With a built-in sensor that optimizes brightness and color temperature for your environment, BenQ has thought of eye health well beyond just blue light protection. No guesswork, no fiddling—just comfortable viewing, from 9 to 5 and beyond.

The Visual Optimizer (V.O.) Hotkey lets you tweak brightness and color temperature separately—for a screen that feels just right.

BenQ’s TÜV-certified Low Blue Light technology protects your eyes during long hours of work, without giving your screen a yellowish tint. You can fine-tune the level to find the right balance, so your work always looks the way it should.

Even screens that seem perfectly fine can flicker—too subtle for you to see, but not for your eyes. BenQ’s TÜV-certified Flicker-Free technology keeps the screen steady and your eyes comfortable, even during long workdays.
