I've been getting a lot of eye strain recently and since I'm about to start studying again I'm going to be in front of the computer even more. I know the hype around them was a bit ridiculous, but I saw this article and thought I'd take a second look.

Does anyone use Gunnars or other non-prescription glasses? How are they for you?

Since I'll mostly wear them at home I don't care what they look like as long as their comfortable. So I thought I thought I might be able to find a cheaper brand. I found these on amazon but not sure if quality will be the same and they don't have tint. Also bit worried about review stating "not one size fits all" since not all glasses fit me.

From article:

"Since I have an uncorrected astigmatism (a bonus discovery from writing this report!) the non-prescription glasses Gunnar Optiks sent me wouldn't benefit me all that much. However, the doctor said the anti-reflective coating on both sides of the lenses was high quality and good for reducing eye strain, and that the amber tint was useful, though its application is a technique that was once much more common than it is today.

Gunnar says its lenses are specially shaped and treated to increase the humidity around the eye to compensate for lowered blink rates. Dr. Melissa Shear O.D. said the particular style glasses I was wearing would be much less beneficial than a simple .25% Polyethylene Glycol eye drop, but there was no reason a more wraparound style wouldn't help."

p.s. I know I should probably get my eyes tested too.
