Blue light glasses

[cyrocksmypants]

I don’t wear/need glasses, but I work a lot on the computer. Have lately been getting bad headaches/eye pains when on for too long. Does anyone use blue light glasses? How well do they work for you?

I bought some cheap ones off of Amazon because I don’t want to spend $150 on something if they don’t work, but feel like I’m going to obviously get cheap quality with cheap pricing. If they work well enough I might be willing to throw down money for some actual nice ones.

They absolutely worked for me.

I bought a couple of pairs of Optitek computer/reader eyeglasses at Staples a couple of years ago. I don't know if they help or not. I'm not really troubled by headaches, eye strain or whatever; I don't know if that's due to the glasses or not.

Blu blockers making a comeback?

I asked optometrist last time I was in and she basically said there's not substantial evidence they help. I haven't done much research though.

My wife started wearing them last year and she thinks they help.

Those that use them tend to swear by them. And considering how I tend to have a computer screen in front of me whether at work or home and the eye strain I feel as a result, I've thought about giving them a try myself.

Even if it’s a placebo effect, if that placebo helps me feel better after an 8 hour day on the computer, it might be worth it.

Sometimes they can give your glasses a minor minor tint to them but they do help. Depends who adds the film on them

Get a better monitor. I’d recommend an ips display with a high ppi. That will do more good than getting glasses that probably don’t do anything.

I bought some, and like them, though it took a bit for my eyes to get adjusted to them for some reason.

Headaches? Might be WHAT you're reading. Suggest not looking at ANY national or local news for a week, you know, the kind of stuff that makes your head want to explode.

Use the time freed up to stream some porn, something easy on your eyes and brain.

Probably a placebo but I feel like I sleep better after the switch and less fatigue.

Agree 100%. I work at computer all day. I used them before I wore glasses and now have corrective glasses with blue light filter. If I don't wear them for a day it hurts.

Use them and the blue light reduction settings in your phone/windows.
