Since your lens already has a tint, ensure that the color of your frame will complement the tint and your skin tone. Remember that the frame must not overpower your overall look. Fluorescent lights. People sensitive to light might find fluorescent lamps bothersome. The lamps discharge light with mercury vapors under low pressure. The produced light is related to eye symptoms like burning, itchy, strain, increased light sensitivity, and soreness. There are amber glasses that can lessen the effects of symptoms from fluorescent light.

Get good-looking “fashion” frames that are less functional for in public like hitting the airport, hanging out with friends, etc. While they’re not perfect, they’re much better than nothing, plus you won’t look like you just came from target practice or from doing some hobby woodworking. Before I had any fashion frames, I opted to not wear my Uvex glasses to a Catan board game night and missed them. In hindsight, I wish I had a nice pair of Ray-Ban style club masters with amber lenses. Let’s say it’s winter in the North, and it becomes dark at 5 pm. Most people turn on bright lights throughout the house and watch a bright 4K television that covers the screen. Around 11 pm, they stumble down the hall and turn on their bright bathroom light and brush their teeth. In that example, all of those light sources are emitting lots of blue and green light, and our hero has theoretically lost over 6 hours of melatonin production to restore and become stronger, healthier, and more anti-fragile for the next day. The problem I ran into is that red glasses cut even more wavelengths out—good for melatonin production but making everything much, much darker. I already have the lights low in my house after dark. I use task lighting and lamps. With the amber glasses, I can still see enough to get around the house. But with the red glasses, I couldn’t even see the stairs. I had to turn on lights to get the brightness I needed to navigate the house. Melatonin is most well-known as being a drug used for jet-lag or as a sleep aid. But it’s a powerful hormone our body produces naturally and it does much, much more than just help you sleep. The benefits of melatonin include that it:

Additionally, since some amber glasses are used to relieve eye discomfort, inspecting the materials used is beneficial. They have to be high quality and durable. More importantly, quality calls for costly products. However, be smart in choosing amber glasses. Excellent brands offer affordable and durable products. Finally, reach out to your eye specialists for a better wearer's experience. Researchers at Harvard’s Schepens Eye Research Institute recently conducted a study. The study aimed to find out whether night driving glasses provided any visual benefit for nighttime driving. Wrap-around frames that give you full coverage of your eyes. These frames are generally pretty ugly. This idea is so incompatible with today’s modern life it’s laughable. No television, movies, or video games?

So, if you’re a programmer or spend all day in artificial lighting, it might be worth experimenting with “heavier” blue-light filtering, perhaps even like the popular Gunnar gaming glasses, which are tinted slightly yellow. It doesn’t seem like cutting out a modest 10–20% of blue and having clear lenses mostly unaffected will do enough for combating eyestrain. Gunnar Glasses have higher blue-filtering levels so they’re tinted a bit yellow Night driving glasses are usually non-prescription glasses with yellow tinted lenses. They often include some kind of anti-reflective coating. This helps prevent reflections from streetlights and oncoming headlights that cause eyeglass glare. All 22 of the participants “drove” in four simulated night-driving conditions. They wore either yellow-tinted night driving glasses or glasses with clear lenses. Each participant also drove in scenarios with and without a headlight glare simulator activated. The goal was to mimic the effect of oncoming traffic.

So, in terms of eyestrain and blue light filtering glasses, we might be on our own to make inferences on our own, do our own experiments such as trying a heavier blue-light filtering tint, and see what work’s best.

can help you build muscle through better tissue repair and activating growth factor synthesis ( study )People wear yellow-tinted shooting glasses for hunting to see an increase in the contrast of objects against an overcast sky. This makes them especially popular among bird hunters. This high-energy visible (HEV) blue light is more likely to cause glare when it enters the eye compared to other forms of visible light. For lamps and task lighting, you can buy special amber or red bulbs (depending on how hardcore you want to go, remember yellow still had a bit of melatonin suppression but isn’t as weird.) These are an option: Besides donning colored lenses for fashion, amber glasses are loved by many as they're known for reducing eye strains and fatigue caused by glare and bright light and improving color contrast.

If you like this kind of stuff and you’re a guy who wants to lift weights, you might like our True Gains program. Throughout human civilization, once the sun would set, the human body would be in relatively complete darkness. There may be a fire, lamp, or candle, but those light sources are: If you want to minimize your blue light inside as you work without buying blue-light filtering glasses, you can shift the colour of your screen using software: There are many more studies related to reducing artificial, blue light at night for improved health that we won’t cover today. A few more for those interested: At the end of the study, the amber lens group experienced significant improvement in sleep quality relative to the control group… Mood also improved significantly relative to controls.

is a powerful antioxidant—even more powerful than vitamin C or beta-carotene ( 2015 study , study ) On the other hand, if you need prescription eyeglasses because you have nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism, choose clear corrective lenses with an anti-reflective (AR) coating. Hardware. For the TV, you can install a box called DriftTV that will change the colours. The problem with this solution is that it’s not very future-proof. You’ll need to buy a new box for 4K, 5K, and whatever is next (8k?). If you’re a gamer who wants to save his health, I’d also be wary of how something like this would affect the response rate. Still, it’s an option for those who want a more automatic option.
