This solve the problem of "strain on the eyes". Personally, I like the blue color too. I dont think the color will strain the eyes that easy, at least my eyes are still fine.

MB and other manufacturers that allow you to change the color, do so via a multicolor diode (like a TV) or a film in front of a lens. Regardless, the orange is signature BMW and for the reasons mentioned. I have owned cars with blue, white, green and variable clusters. Orange produces less night vision strain and allows better clarity which is why most heads up displays favor this color.
But if you have the time and money... enjoy
