GUNNAR Gaming & Computer Glasses arrive with us very soon! (Hopefully by the end of the week)

(Not only that, I own a pair and they do make a massive difference) Work for longer, game for longer all whilst protecting your eyes. The glasses themselves are rather stylish too, some are geared more towards an office environment and some are aimed more at the gamers amongst you (Yes there are Razer branded frames) but ultimately, they all do the same job.

Gunnar's custom and complete solution addresses and alleviates all common issues associated with digital eye strain, effects of artificial blue light, visual stress and fatigue.

They look like the night drive glasses that appear in those annoying 'Innovation' style pull outs that fall out of every magazine that are sold for a £9.95 and get a free electronic bird scarier.
They are actually very good. There is also the clear lens available if the Amber Lenses are putting you off. Although they will only have a BLRF (Blue Light Reduction Factor) of 35% instead of the 65% from the Amber Lens.

The Menlo Clear Lens is the only frame we currently have with the Clear Lenses.

Whatever next in the 'gaming' bubble. Lacking in RGB though. Very much a gimmick for quick ££ in my eyes (oh matron).
Gunnar Originally started with glasses for computer and office work. Their "gaming" glasses are exactly the same, just have frame designs aimed more towards a gaming audience. The technology is the same and they are tested and certified and most definitely not a gimmick. As I say in the original post, I own a pair and they really do help with eye strain, bearing in mind I spend the whole day working at a computer screen.

Im sorry gents but you are better off getting your eyes tested and getting actual glasses tailored to your vision.

Yes they do make a difference, but wearing proper glasses are far far better. Not quite a gimmick, but better spending your money on real glasses.

Just want to clear up that these are designed to reduce eye strain and artificial blue light. So they are to be used whilst using a PC screen, TV screen, Mobile screen etc. Ideal for people who don't require corrective eyewear.
If you do require corrective eyewear, Gunnar can make these glasses to your prescription. But again, they are designed for people who spend a lot of time infront of a TV or Screen. For anything else and everyday use, ofcourse, your prescription eyewear from your local optician is preferable.

Hey, couple of quick questions. How do this glasses differ from running f.lux as a software solution, other than not needing software being installed so making them an option where you don't have admin/installation rights. And how do they affect actual colours in games? Will it make colours look wrong?
Thanks.

A number of good, constructive questions.

Whilst F.lux is a great piece of software, some people as you say, do not have access to install such a program or may not even have network access. Gunnar's Glasses not only reduce artificial blue light, they reduce screen glare (Something F.lux can't do). the design of the Lens and frames themselves also help with dry eyes as they prevent air currents from passing over your eye (causing dryness & making your eyes feel sore). The glasses also have a very slight "zoom", the screen image is sharper and a lot clearer - again, helping to reduce strain. The glasses are not just aimed at PC screen users, people who use Tablets, Mobile Phones, Handheld Consoles or who spend a lot of time infront of the tv will benefit and as far as i'm aware, you can't get F.lux on a TV...

In regards to the colour. The amber lenses have a slight tint to them, after a while using them, you adjust to the colour and don't really notice it (the colour difference isn't massive and wont make colours look wrong, just slightly lighter.) By being slightly tinted, they do help in low light applications, for example, playing games where you may be in a dark location. I've noticed from personal use that i'm not straining to see whats happening on my monitor anymore. If you are worried about colour, Gunnar do have "clear" lenses which have a BLRF (Blue Light Reduction Factor) of 35%, these are aimed at people like graphic designers and videographers, where colour is of the utmost importance.

As someone who spends all day at the computer doing office work and a fair few hours gaming when I get home, I can say I have noticed a difference. I don't end the day with sore, dry eyes and I suffer with a lot less Headaches/Migraines which I am usually very prone to.

I hope this has answered your questions, but if theres anything else you want to know, please ask :)

This is a good idea for someone on a computer screen all day. As I get older I notice I can't look at a screen as much as I used to, my eyes strain to see details on screen even with prescription glasses which often leads to dry eyes. If these glasses can alleviate that then it's something I might check out (will read some long term user reviews first.) I would need a prescription though.

For prescription lenses you would need to go to Gunnar Direct and provide them with your prescription but it is something they can do :)

I have been using these Gunnar Glasses since they came into stock here and I must admit they have been fantastic.

They have reduced my eye strain massively and I have not been getting as many headaches whilst working a the desk.

At first I thought it was a myth but they actually do work and help :)
