Exactly as pictured, and they do work for me!
Pretty much my entire life I have had excellent vision. I was often called "Eagle-eye" because I could see things other people just couldn't. My eyesight has been getting fuzzier over the last 6 years - in fact, it started the exact time I had an increase of time in front of the computer. The last time my eyesight went funky, it was because of my junky, flickery work monitor (one of those old CRTs). I actually had to get glasses because I became nearsighted. Once the monitor was replaced, my eyesight went back to normal.This time around, I became farsighted. I had to get reading glasses because I couldn't read medicine bottle or even paperwork I had to complete! I figured it was still a monitor issue, considered when I first started noticing the trouble and how long it has been going on. But, I thought it was not quite the same problem since it was not causing the same vision stress. When I read about the harm of blue light, I figured that might be my problem. I looked through the glasses on Amazon, and picked these for the reviews and the color (I love pale pink!).These glasses look just as I was expecting them to look. They are a pretty, pale pink - almost silvery pink. The frames are translucent, so they don't stand out on your face, which I like.They are sturdy and well made - I also love that they don't have nose pads!They come with a lens cleaning cloth, which is very nice. They also come with a blue light tester. It's hard to tell if the tester works since if it does you're not supposed to see anything. But it was nice that they thought to put that in the package anyway.I can tell that things do look a little more yellow with them on - it's not a weird, unnatural yellow, just makes everything a bit softer. Like you're in incandescent lighting rather than fluorescent lighting .They do have a bit of glare off them, which seems to be a common problem with blue blocking glasses. But when looking through them, it's barely noticeable - mostly noticeable for the people looking at you. I have heard that there are blue blocking glasses that don't have glare, but they are way more expensive. I think for the price of these glasses, it's perfectly fine.Do they work? How do you tell? It's not like you can even really see the light they are supposed to block! But, I do believe that they are working for a couple of reasons. There have been several times that my eyes were hurting from looking at my laptop screen. I put the glasses on, and in just a minute or two, my eyes were no longer hurting! That right there is good enough for me to continue using them. But it gets better - after using the glasses for just a few weeks, I can now read things without glasses that I haven't been able to read in years! Definitely what I was hoping for!These glasses have no strength, they are NOT reading glasses. But they have been allowing my eyes to rest and heal. I will be getting another pair of blue blocking glasses so I can have one at home and work.If you look at screens a lot, it's a good idea to think about getting glasses like these, even if you aren't experiencing problems yet. Apparently, from what I have read, the damage that blue light causes to your eyes can be permanent and happens gradually over time. I wish I had known about these glasses years ago!Ver másVer menos
