my eyes feel like they’re on fire
I’m in front of my computer for nine or more hours a day, as well as looking at my phone and watching TV at home, I'll say more than half a day I'm reading at the screen. As soon as I hit hour four or five, my eyes feel like they’re on fire, sometimes even headache. The eye strain has become increasingly worse over time. The bloodshot eyes took hours to go away, sometimes even still there while I wake up in the morning.My experience with the glasses: I've been wearing glasses since high school, so I have no problem getting used to this glasses. After wearing for a week, my eyes didn’t feel nearly as aggravated come 6 p.m. — and there were no mid-day eye rubs necessary! When I got home each day my eyes were still a little pink, but they absolutely looked better than before.I definitely feel like these glasses worked for me. I’ll continue wearing them as long as they’re working — especially on days when my eyes are feeling a little more irritated than usual.

Good Optics, No spring hinges, Jury's still Out on Blue-block effectiveness
I've been using these as computer glasses for about a week now and am mostly happy with them. Here's why.THE PROS: The 1.75 magnification I ordered was perfect, and I can see clearly through the entire range of the lens. The glasses are lightweight, and with the integrated nose brace, I don't worry about nose pieces falling off. They came with a hard case, a polishing cloth, and a tool set. Yeah!THE CONS: There are no springs in the earpieces. The ear piece hinges seem a bit tight. I'm not sure this is a con, because experience with similar hinges in the past has ranged from the screw loosening and falling out to the screw working itself so tight it eventually caused the earpiece to break off to the screw and hinge joint remaining perfect through the life of the glasses. Only time will tell how these pan out.THE QUESTIONS: The lenses are clear, yet they claim to block blue light. I did about 40 minutes of online research, and was unable to find a definitive answer to whether clear lenses are capable of blocking blue light. Manufacturers say yes, writers with opinions but no facts say probably not, but I couldn't find any independent laboratory tests confirming this one way or the other.The bottom line for this Blue Light Blocking capability - which is why I bought these particular glasses - will be after I spend a long day at the computer, do my eyes burn and feel tired? They haven't yet, so maybe they work fine.All in all, considering that reading glasses like this range in price from about $3 at your local mega-mart to more than $200 from places that are inordinately proud of their offerings, the ~$33 I spent on these seemed a decent value for the money. Although for this price, I hoped they would have spring hinges.

Everybody wants them
My blue blocking reading glasses are now the only ones I wear! They are attractive, lightweight and neutral. I love the opportunity to discuss the benefits of wearing blue blocking glasses to my friends.. melanopsin - In humans, melanopsin is found in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs).[6] It is also found in the iris of mice and primates.[7] Melanopsin is also found in rats, amphioxus, and other chordates.[8] ipRGCs are photoreceptor cells which are particularly sensitive to the absorption of short-wavelength (blue) visible light and communicate information directly to the area of the brain called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), also known as the central "body clock", in mammals.[9] Melanopsin plays an important non-image-forming role in the setting of circadian rhythms as well as other functions.

I was pretty skeptical about glasses being able to filter blue light ...
I was pretty skeptical about glasses being able to filter blue light and bought this pair as 4.0 reading glasses. After a couple weeks of use, however, I realized that my eyes do not hurt anymore. I spend all my time at work in front of the computer and read books on ipad at home (also, surf internet often) and my eyes were beginning to hurt real bad. Not any more! Pretty amazing. Of course, 4.0 was also a big help, but the not-hurting-anymore effect is unexpected and very welcome. Of course, this is very individual, but it worked for me.

No More Ocular Migraines!
I've never needed reading glasses and still don't need the magnification, but after decades of headaches and eye strain turned into multiple weekly ocular migraines I knew I had to do something about spending all day working with electronic devices. I am so glad I got these glasses. It's been a week and I haven't had any migraines. At first, I felt the frames were a bit bigger than I wanted them to be, but they've grown on me. I like the purplish tint of the clear frames that gives it a subtle flare that doesn't block my field of vision. Part of the reason I picked these glasses is that I didn't want to see everything with a yellow tint, and I'm happy with that decision too. The lenses are pretty reflective to light, but as long as you take them off before snapping a selfie, it won't be a problem. The delivery was quick, and along with a pretty solid case and cleaning cloth, it came with a glasses-sized screwdriver on a keychain. Overall, I am very satisfied with both my decision to get blue light filter glasses and to choose this specific pair.

Functionability!!!
They are super cute and light. I’ve been getting migraine headaches at least 2-3 times a week. I bought these and have been using them for about 3-4 days now and haven’t gotten 1 migraine yet.

I love these glasses ♡Far better than I expected. They are slender and lightweight. I can hardly feel them on my face and my vision is now better than ever.

Love them!
Love them!!! As soon as I put them on the blue light blocking made a huge difference. They're very good quality and came with a repair kit and very nice case.

A true protection
Amazing product. Stylish. Amber in colour. Light weight- I don't even feel that there's a specs on my nose. Looks really fragile, but I guess it is not. It protects my eyes from Glare and Blue ray. I use it while i drive and use gadgets.I didn't do any technical test to see it's authenticity, but i would say one thing with confidence that this has become an inevitable medium between my eyes and anything that disturbs my eyes. I feel it's authenticity intuitively.A great protection.
