Uvex Skyper Blue Light Blocking Computer Glasses with SCT-Orange Lens (S1933X)

These are great quality for what you're paying. Use them with a light warming application such as f.lux for the best results. Positives: + They hug your face really well, the side shields keep light out and the tint makes sure no (or very little) blue light will reach your eyes. + I saw an analytical graphic and these glasses block out about 98% of blue light, more than enough to see the health benefits (better sleep etc). + A very good price point, well priced indeed. Negatives: - They aren't that stylish, but don't look awful either. They are substance over style, and do the job better than other products in this market that are geared more towards aesthetics. - Lower quality materials; this doesn't affect function at all; but plastic is always going to be worse than metal and more prone to breakage. - The strong tint may makes these unsuitable for situations where accurate color perception is necessary, for example playing video games. It's a trade-off, block out more blue light while forfeiting colours or block less blue light and seeing a broader colour spectrum - different glasses in this market will suit different needs.

These are just about big enough to wear on top of spectacles, if you have specs with thin frames - forget that if you have regular frames. But they cut out a lot of blue light. I have ME and regularly have to keep away from laptops and PC screens - these certainly help in that regard. On a bad day when I'm a bit light sensitive and have headaches and brain fog, these help just by wearing them around the house. No, I wouldn't have believed it either. Even enabling the blue light filter on my phone or laptop doesn't compare to wearing these. For the price they're a bargain. Whether you find them comfortable probably depends on the size of your head. Mine is fairly big and I can wear them without much discomfort. They feel well made enough to last unless you're particularly clumsy and tread on them.

Ok first off, I'm a web developer so I stare at my monitor all day and then later when I get home. I was getting really bad eye strain, to the point where I couldn't do any consistent work. Went to my optician who said that there was no evidence that anti-blue light glasses such as these helped. Bought some expensive new glasses from them and it made no difference at all. So I thought why not try out on these specs instead...2 days later, no eye strain whatsoever. These are great not just for laptops but also in rooms with fluorescent light, really cuts down the glare. Pros - Cheap Fits well but there is some pinching over the ears Wraps well around the eyes to block out any light coming in from the sides. Works like a charm! Cons - Is a bit flimsy on the frame, so don't treat them too forcefully You look like a bit of a fool in the office, or like the guy from Team America World Police. Whatever makes you feel better... Overall 5* - why? Because all the cons are outweighed by the price, I don't expect titanium, carbon- fibre, captain scarlet indesctructible for just over a £10. Well worth a go, if you are getting eye strain at the pc all day!! Try these first before you pay for new glasses!

Almost bought one of the other “fake” blue-blocking glasses that block only 10%, while this one does 98%, I believe. The colours do in fact change by a lot, and the white becomes orange (because of the blue light being removed), but the effect is amazing. It’s like transporting yourself into a much calmer environment. Monitor display picture becomes much sharper (it’s hard for human eyes to focus on blue light, which is being removed). One of the interesting side effects I found is that it helps with my red-green colourblindness (deutan) a lot — the greens and reds are much more distinct, like by a lot! Of course, you can’t see blue anymore ;) But that’s the desired effect. The build quality is amazing. I think they are made in the USA by the company providing protection equipment to professionals (they have other protective equipment). To be honest, I buy a lot on Amazon, and this product is the best thing I bought in a while! And I haven’t even tried it before sleeping yet, just wearing during day ;)

Disclaimer: I bought these not for safety but for their alleged ability to block blue light. I came across a recommendation for this specific model from someone suffering sleeping problems and discussed blocking blue light that is emitted from all LCD screens. Pros: It seems to work as intended. I have no empirical evidence, or means to onjectively measure my quality of sleep, but anecdotally, I do tend to sleep better when wearing these while surfing the net, watching videos or playing games at night. The orange tint to everything isn't really that big of an issue and while currently playing BioShock 2, seems to match quite nicely with the colour scheme anyway. Cons: These are one of the most uncomfortable safety specs I have ever worn. The entire lower and outer edges of the orange plastic seem designed to maximise irritation and dig into your skin. The rigid plastic nose "pads" just seem to dig into the sides of my nose. It sucks because during my work week, I could be spending up to 3 hours playing on my PC and these things are so irritating after just 20 minutes of wear. But i don't really have a choice at the moment. The design desperately needs some thought into some sort of soft rubber or foam edging or padding.

耳や鼻が痛くなりにくく、かけやすいです。

Realmente funcionan y bloquean el espectro nocivo de luz azul. Los armazones son de plástico pero lo suficientemente rígidos y cómodos para darle una buena vida útil a los lentes. Las micas se pueden intercambiar, ya que se desprenden del armazón. La gente que se queja de que se rayan, es porque no los limpia con paño antiestático o si lo hace, los fricciona en exceso. No son incómodos y no pesan. Se acostumbra uno al instante. Si los vas a usar para ver la TV o jugar algún videojuego, debo advertirte que los matices de los colores si se verán distintos. Principalmente todos los azules (dependiendo de la longitud de onda a la que pertenezcan se verán negros y/o verdes) y los blancos se verán naranjas. Aunque claro, es preferible proteger los ojos en este caso, porque si estás buscando lentes bloqueadores es porque definitivamente tienes algún problema u afección en tus ojos. Los lentes también ayudan a descansar la vista cuando se está mucho tiempo frente a un monitor, puesto que la luz nociva no penetra, generando un descanso visual y una mayor eficiencia de nuestro ritmo circadiano. Recomiendo estos lentes ampliamente.

Wow! What a great way to accurately control what light your eyes are exposed to. These glasses have become a staple before sleeping. I use them to help realign my body clock when I need to. Quite simply, blue light tells your body to stay awake and be active. Blocking that at night has been very effective for me in getting to sleep. The morning is the best time to be exposed to light (preferably sunlight) so I would only use these at night, for about an hour before sleep. Everything looks the same when wearing them, except that blue objects appear almost black (because their light doesn't get through to the eye). It's actually a really cool effect before you get used to it. --------- Function: (Does it get the job done?) (5/5) The glasses do a very good job helping me get to sleep, by blocking blue light. They are ridiculously effective at blocking ONLY the light under 550nm (blue). They do this with proven scientific precision and accuracy. They don't seem to affect anything else but blue, so I can still do any almost activity while wearing them. --- Aesthetic: (Does it look and feel good?) (4/5) Yes, they are light and comfortable to wear. Because they are adjustable, I can wear them for hours without much discomfort. These are pretty stylish glasses/goggles. Granted, wearing orange goggles for no apparent reason is always gonna look a little funny. But the good design of these glasses lets me pull it off okay. --- Durability: (Does it stay together?) (4/5) Fairly strong and solid build. The lens is detachable and has an clear snap as it locks into place. The adjustable settings are also solid. They are light and can take a lot of accidental drops. As long as you don't step on them, you should be fine. --- Life: (Does it survive normal long term use?) (4/5) I have been using the same pair for over a year now. The lens has to be carefully cleaned with a warm towel and a little water to avoid scratches. Anything else, I've noticed degrades the clarity over time. --- Cost: (Does it cost less than similar quality items?) (5/5) This is a very inexpensive solution. For about $10, I got more of a significant, safe and consistent effect on sleep quality than any expensive sleep aid or drug I've ever known. It is about the same price as other normal safety goggles. --------- (22/25) - 88% I highly recommended this Skyper as part of a holistic system for optimizing your body clock. Hope my experience was helpful for you!

As an amateur astronomer, I've done a lot of research about light pollution. That led me to research about how light affects sleep. Here's the summed-up version so you don't need to read all those scientific papers I have: - Blue light is great for being awake - that's why you wake up with a blue sky (read about melanopsin and melatonin on Wikipedia) - Blue light is not good for sleep; in the 470 nanometers range, that suppresses melatonin (a key hormone for sleeping well) - Humans (and other animals) evolved to sleep in the dark - or, at the darkest, full Moonlight (just 0.1-0.3 lux of light) - Longer wavelengths of light were the only source of light at night for most of human history (fire / candles) - Tablets / phones / screens / LED's and many CFL bulbs have strong blue wavelengths that are messing with our circadian rhythms and suppressing melatonin, because they have wavelengths shorter than 530nm - 540nm So what to do in our modern world? Wear these glasses before bed. Natural melatonin production would have occurred with our ancestors starting with the onset of sunset. Wavelengths of light from the setting sun would have shifted to red, and fire or candles were usually the only form of light available. Those are both relatively dim, and in longer wavelengths. Today, our "connected" world has a LOT of blue light. It's messing with our sleep patterns, because our bodies evolved to only see red/orange/yellow light at night, NOT blue light/shorter wavelenghts. THESE GLASSES BLOCK THOSE MELATONIN SUPPRESSING WAVELENGTHS. Put them on a couple hours before bed. For me, I start getting drowsy about 90 minutes after wearing them. The trick is DO NOT take them off without closing your eyes or being in a dark room (a room with ONLY a dim red light would work too, as your melanopsin won't trigger melatonin suppression with red light). So when changing for bed, close your eyes when removing your shirt if you have to pull it off over your head or put your night time clothing on. Then leave these on until you turn out the light for sleep. And be sure to sleep in the dark too, or wear a sleep mask. Small amounts of light can still affect your melatonin (well, anything brighter then full Moonlight - yes, even a blue LED on your computer). You can watch TV with these on, check your phone, read your tablet, work on your laptop - just note that colors will look weird. Blue looks black. Yellow looks white. Greens look weird. And the glasses aren't exactly stylish. But if you sleep better, who cares? They work. And while you're at it, make sure your home's lights (and business if you own one) aren't shining into other people's homes or apartments. Too much light at night is what makes these things necessary in the first place. We don't need all this light at night; these glasses are just a band aid to help; what we really need is smarter outdoor lighting - aimed down, at the ground, at the proper color(s) so we aren't suppressing others melatonin. According to a Harvard study, the U.S. loses $63 BILLION dollars per year due to American's insomnia. Artificial light at night messing up people's sleep is undoubtedly part of that - let's fix that so these glasses aren't as necessary. Oh, and did these glasses work for me? An emphatic YES, they did. 5 nights (so far) of excellent sleep and well-rested mornings. And I am NOT a morning person! They work - just use them the right way, and be sure you're not doing other things that might hurt sleep (too much caffeine, lack of / too much exercise right before bed, sleep apnea, etc.) So if it's not a medical condition, do the right things, wear these, and get better sleep.

Pros- Came a few days earlier than promised. Good for continuous screen users. Slept like a log of wood. Cons- came in a box almost crushed cost can be lower Please provide a case(if needed charge)-For heavens sake packing it in a plastic paper was !!!!!!!!
