Do you really need blue light glasses?

Do you really need blue light glasses?
Did you know that we are exposed to blue light daily? For example all our devices screens (phone, laptops, etc) expose your eyes to blue light.

With all the time we expend exposed to blue light, it is only safe to assume that we could all benefit from blue light filtering glasses.

I just recently learned about a company that is celebrating 15 years of commitment to innovation, GUNNAR Optiks, the trailblazer in blue light blocking computer and gaming eyewear, recently launched Emery – their modern and stylish blue light blocking glasses.

Did you start off the new year focusing on weight loss and fitness related resolutions? With 2020 being the year of perfect vision, re-focus your resolution on eye protection! We wanted to share that approx. 60 million people globally suffer from Computer Vision Syndrome, resulting in reduced work productivity. With the average employee spending 1,700 hours in front of a computer screen, millions of people with affected vision, negative short/long-term effects can result from blue light exposure causing headaches, dry eyes, blurry vision, and macular degeneration.  
Do you really need blue light glasses?
​Emery features a high-quality, durable acetate material and is available in five frame color options with juxtaposing temple colors, for a pop of chic modernity. Designed with three-barrel hinges for durability, flexibility and greater range in motion, Emery provides a lightweight construction and proper weight balance to guarantee long wearing comfort without pressure points or fatigue.
 
Offering a contemporary fashion-forward twist to blue light blocking glasses, Emery is now available in five color combinations: Rose/Tortoise, Sage/Crystal, Crystal/Tortoise, Onyx/Jasper and Tortoise/Onyx with the patented Amber Lens (BLPF 65) and Clear Lens (BLPF 35) at GUNNAR.com. For a limited time, customers will receive a free limited-edition red case with purchase.

I would give these a try. My eyes are the best, so anything that can help with that is a win for me.

I feel if you work online a lot, like myself and a lot of others, you should probably invest in some blue light glasses. We only have one pair of eyes, and we need to protect them.

I hope I am not hurting my eyes too much from my phone and devices. Those glasses sound like a good way to play it safe.

They really do have their advantages. I would love to use a pair when I am on the computer for awhile.

I'm hoping these blue light glasses I found on Amazon are legit. My eyes need the protection that's for sure. Plus they look cute. Win win.

This is something I've been worried about for some time. I ordered some blue light reading glasses, and now I'm thinking I should get some for my daughter as well.

If I can afford it,I wont think twice as long as it can protect my eyes from getting hurt.

I have a pair of regular glasses that I use when I'm on the computer, I should see if I can get them with the blue light blocker.

I have been wondering about these. I'm basically looking at at a screen from the time I get up until I go to bed.

I really should be using these glasses to protect my eyes. I've already got astigmatism and having difficulty reading close up with my glasses on. Dr said I was on verge of needing bifocals.

I'm personally torn on this, but even though I had already used all of my insurance on my son's first pair of glasses last year, I did decided to get blue light protection on his second.

I spend all day in front of a computer, so I've been curious about blue light glasses. Love that there are such stylish options.
