Blue Blocker Glasses Login/Join

Has anyone used these and noticed any results? My wife bought me a pair telling me it would reduce eye strain using my tablet or phone. I see no difference. I said it's like buying those whistles only a dog can hear. How do you know if the thing is working if only a dog can hear it?

I have blue blocker as indicated by the reflected tint.

I'm not sure if it's beneficial though. Certainly not at a daily level that I can detect - perhaps it's a long term thing.

It's just part of the premium AR coating I get; blue block is included. Not sure I would pay extra for it.

“Blue light” glasses are being heavily promoted in the gaming space (video games) to reduce eye strain and help with sleep. I have a pair. Nothing fancy. $40 off of Amazon. I work on screens all day, up to 14 hours a day. Jury is out for me so far. But I’m in the “testing” phase with them.

Tl;dr: worked to an extent, but not necessarily amazing.

I have some in reading glasses form. They do work a bit as I stare at a work laptop all day. But, they also altered colors. White walls became sepia toned, for example. While reading text, the color didn’t matter. I didnt use them after work.

They were on the heavier side. Found some lighter weight cheaters for more comfort, sans blue blocker filter.
