I need to get a UV filter for my camera...

You don't need a filter. You need a source of UV light. Plants shine in visible spectrum after being treated with UV. It doesn't last long tho.

I got a full spectrum converted nex6 in April so I've been looking around at filters

Isn't the sun a source of UV light?

Yes, but the visible light will overpower the glow.

I need to get UV cone surgery for my eyes. I want to be able to see these colors naturally, not have them fluoresce into a spectrum of colors I already can see.
