If you’re someone who spends a lot of time staring at a computer screen, then it’s important to protect your eyes from the artificial blue light your monitor emits. That goes for office workers as well as hardcore gamers. This is because the artificial blue light emitted by computer monitors and other digital screens can cause dry eyes, eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision. Not to mention it can also affect your circadian rhythm, as prolonged exposure to blue light can disrupt the body’s production of melatonin. One reliable way to protect your eye health against blue light is by wearing blue light glasses, which are specifically designed to filter out the blue light emitted by digital screens. If you’re looking for a pair of blue light glasses to wear when you’re at your computer, check out the latest GUNNAR Optiks’ blue light glasses, such as their newly released GUNNAR Optiks Borderlands 4 Ripper.
GUNNAR Optiks’ blue light glasses feature a wide range of designs for work and gaming, and have a high-quality construction. They also come equipped with blue light blocking lenses that utilize GUNNAR’s patented blue light lens technology, which effectively blocks harmful blue light and 100% UV rays. Their lenses are also protected by GUNNAR’s proprietary G-Shield lens coating, which makes them anti-reflective and smudge-resistant.
