"Digital performance eyewear" - helpful, or a gimmick?
Has anyone tried out Gunnar computer glasses? They are supposed to filter out blue light, reducing glare and eyestrain. Did they work for you, and are they worth the $70+?

I have a pair. They do seem to make viewing the monitor a little easier, but not $70.00 worth in my opinion.
Please update when you buy a pair.
You can buy BluBlockers or amber lensed sunglasses for a lot less and will most likely get the same results.
@SpatzieLover I’m considering spending a bit more on the Gunnars since they’re more eyeglass-like and discreet for work.
I love the BluBlocker “Club Line” of shades… designed for those “epic nights”... “you are the person everyone came to see”
@fizzbanger Gotcha…My husband is a professional computer geek and wears a “sleek” style of BluBlockers outside and occasionally in while doing work. Personally I can’t imagine him ever desiring to wear any glasses while at work (he had lasik done many years ago & is thrilled to no longer need glasses)
There are a few pairs that are frame-less that look nothing like ones on their main page. I think we buy his on ebay or amazon…so that may make a difference in style. His look just like the expensive ones. ;)
I would buy the PPK chrome ones from thinkgeek. They look really good.
