" ... With my first use of these glasses, I felt like I had taken a mild sedative after about 30 minutes of wearing them. ... Definite difference, was tired, and actually fell asleep about an hour earlier than I usually do. ... "
" ... They can be adjusted to your face and are comfortable to wear for long periods of time. ... "
" ... Perfect to my head if I take my perscription glasses off, but with them I need a size or two bigger. ... "
" ... Less eye fatigue. ... "
" ... They are actually real comfortable and you can adjust them pretty well. ... "
" ... These glasses fit nicely and really help keep the blue light from making my eyes tired. ... "
" ... I was about to write a 4star review when I realized that yes, you *can* adjust the length of the arms of these glasses! ... I absolutely recommend these - especially to anyone with light-sensitive eyes, as the blue light being blocked seems to alleviate much of my discomfort from mild light sensitivity. ... "
" ... They are well made and the frame adjusts to your ears distance for comfort. ... "

" ... they don't fit well. ... "
" ... I'm surprised my eye balls didnt pop out of my head. ... They seem to be designed to fit on small children and not an adults head. ... I wish they had a way to make it less loose and not so tight. ... "
" ... won't fit over any of my glasses ... "
" ... These do not fit over eyeglasses, and the box has a big warning notice that these glasses are made with chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects. ... "
" ... They don't fit well over other glasses, even small ones, and tend to give me a headache after a while. ... "
" ... Didn't fit well, but I liked the other Model Uvex S0360X ... "
" ... They don't fit over my glasses very well and are uncomfortable to wear. ... "

" ... When I where them after dark until I go to bed, I sleep much better. ... Tip: when you take these off at night to go to bed, use a sleep mask unless you have a completely dark room. ... "
" ... And, given the horrible health impacts of no sleep, it may have just saved my life. ... After 3 nights of great sleep, I tested the product by not wearing the glasses. ... "
" ... Hope these glasses will help my mother as she is an insomniac and is always looking for sleep aids. ... "
" ... I really sleep better when I use them. ... "

" ... Sleeping better already. ... I was completely surprised by how much blue light affected my sleep. ... "
" ... We bought these for myself and my husband in an effort to prevent blue light from messing with our sleep at night. ... "

" ... Was a little skeptical based on the low price, buuuut . ... "
" ... You won't beat the price and free shipping either, in my opinion. ... "

" ... The color of the lenses distorts the light in the room and the ability to watch television, which is why I bought them. ... "
" ... I passed these on to the goodwill and opted for a pair of rose colored lenses. ... "
" ... Also there is a spot in the middle of the lenses that has a matte finish as part of the design, the problem with that is when wearing them you will always see this little blurry spot in the middle of your eyes. ... "
" ... Lenses were so dark that I could not see what was written on the computer screen. ... "
" ... They are just so loose and large that they hang very low and so while a part of my vision sees through the glass lenses, the upper part of my vision just sees objects as if I didn't have any blue-light blocking glasses on at all. ... "
" ... Lenses seems fine but it doesn't fit on a regular man. ... "
" ... The lens although quite clean was terribly blurry, and the frame made a formidable effort to crush my temples. ... "
" ... Does not fit over big lens glasses ... "

" ... Excellent amber-color safety glasses, for viewing computer screen at night to prevent alertness from its blue colors. ... "
" ... I use it to relax my eyes when I watch TV at night. ... "
" ... They are very yellow giving a strong color to any tablet or phone screen. ... "

" ... You can barely see blue light at all with these. ... When you look at a blue light you can barely tell it's on. ... "
" ... Its Works fine, its not the coolest desing, you can use it with glasses (if they are not to big) but it was not designed for it. ... "
" ... but everything is also orange! ... "
" ... It feels good almost. ... "
" ... That's why I give it 4-star rating for durability & appearance. ... "

" ... great for everything tv computer and sun and sunlamp ... "
" ... I admit - I'm a computer junkie, and with a limited amount of free time to use my computer, I work and play right up to bedtime. ... "
" ... I'm buying my second pair to keep one beside my computer and the other with my iPad. ... "
" ... Good to have if you spend a lot of time in front of computers. ... "
" ... Use in evening with iPhone, iPad, kindle . ... "
" ... I have to admit it's not an absolute 100% cure which allows me to be up for hours on my phone/PC in a dark room for hours and then fall right asleep, but the difference is definitely dramatic. ... "

" ... Good enough for regular computer use poor for gaming as it changes color of objects in game as to make them unrecognizable. ... "
" ... but everything is also orange! ... "
" ... Does it affect colors? ... "
" ... The color is great for blocking the blue light absorption ... "
" ... You can barely see blue light at all with these. ... "
" ... Good color blocking. ... "
" ... When I used the online blue light blocking test (where you compare two different color patterns) it seems to block out most of the blue light. ... It does change the colors pretty dramatically when you first put them on, but your eyes will adjust slightly and the picture (on your tv, etc) will look more acceptable over time (but of course, will not be nearly as good when watching without these! ... "
" ... With my Gunnar's, there is a tint but you can still see and differentiate other colors. ... With these Uvex, There are no other colors. ... "

" ... They are very angled and cut into my cheeks but it’s just the way they’re made. ... "
" ... They don't fit, they are designed to fit on your nose. ... "
" ... After an hour of whittling on the arms with a modeling knife and filing and wet-sanding the hard plastic nose bridge, the sharp contact points are gone and the glasses can finally be worn somewhat comfortably. ... "
" ... No matter how I tried to adjust them, they would press against my face or slide down my nose. ... "
" ... not adjustable at bridge of nose . ... "
" ... I'm asian and have a flatter nose. ... "
" ... The product is lacking an adjustable nose pad and thus the glasses either sit too low if resting on my nose (sort of a reading glasses) or if raised to the proper height they are resting on my cheek bones (and by no means I have protruding cheek bones). ... "

" ... These things definitely seem to block out the blue no problem so far, don't play color based puzzle games though. ... "
" ... Was thinking of buying expensive "gamer glasses" but came across these. ... "
" ... Man after playing skyrim for about 6hrs and my eyes are like “bring it on bitches”. ... "
" ... But for video watching, computer games, and office documents (Word, Excel, etc) it really doesn't interfere. ... "
" ... Colors entirely changed but I feel my eyes rested after a few hours of video gaming ... "
" ... So If you like the way the colors look n don"t want the quality of the color of the glasses to effect your gaming I suggest you buy some glasses not so dark. ... "
" ... The only odd part is the lack of the color blue, I am a gamer so the missing color makes gaming more "interesting". ... "
" ... These glasses are an absolute game changer. ... "
