I spent nearly $750 on four pairs of these, one pair costing over $400 for the prescription lenses and none of them provide adequate light occlusion. One pair had damaged padding and the prescription pair isn’t quite right, very blurry and had the lenses popping out. We checked the measurements before ordering but it doesn’t mention the angle of the arms, which alter the fit. All four of us have different shaped faces and it does not fit any of us well enough to block light from all sides. If light can enter from any angle, the physiological effect remains. At that point, the glasses are functionally ineffective.

These glasses do not work as advertised. They are uncomfortable. The plastic feels very cheap. After trying to wear them this evening I seem to have had an allergic reaction to the foam padding on my face. Please do not be misled by gimmicky “nighttime”, “wrap-around” blue-light–blocking glasses like these.

For blue-light–blocking glasses to be effective at night, they must block short-wavelength (blue) light from all angles, not just straight on. These glasses fail to do that. The frames and padding are not thick or sealed enough to prevent light leakage from the sides, top, and bottom. As a result, they do not meaningfully reduce overall retinal light exposure.

The science is clear: even low-intensity light entering the peripheral retina is sufficient to activate intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which contain melanopsin and are highly…

I feel like I'm wearing a mask when I wear these glasses. They are a snug fit and I don't have gaps around the edges. I use them for watching TV on an evening. I have also found that if needed, I can pop my prescription reading glasses over them to read something but probably not ideal if needing to do a lot of reading.
