Disclosed is a method for determining a filter for a visual equipment to be placed in front of the eye of a user to improve visual comfort and/or visual performance of the user, the method including: determining the spectral transmittance of an ocular media of an eye; and determining a filter based on the determined spectral transmittance of the ocular media so the filter has a spectral transmittance profile including: a first portion having a maximum transmittance value between 380 nm and a predetermined threshold, and a second portion with a decreasing transmittance value between the threshold and 670 nm. Also disclosed is a filter whose spectral transmittance is calculated based on the spectral transmittance of the user's ocular media, as well as a set of filters with each filter in the set having a spectral transmittance based on the spectral transmittance of the ocular media of users having different ages.
