Hello Beautiful People,
The more we are connected to our computers, smartphones and televisions, the more I realize that computer glasses are necessary. Computer glasses are designed to filter out the blue light from computer monitors, smart phone screens and even televisions. The blue lights can be harmful to your eyes and increase the amount of eye fatigue. I recently had an opportunity to collaborate with Spektrum to see how the glasses worked.
The glasses pictured below are similar to the design that was sent to my hubby and I. The inside of the frame arms are more red and there is a slightly yellow tint on the glasses that does not come through in this photograph. This yellow tint is what removes the white glare and the blue lights that are emitted from your computer screens.

Since I wear prescription glasses, I can only wear these glasses when I am wearing my contacts. My hubby could wear the pair because he does not wear glasses or contacts and the lenses do not have any prescription in them. For him, it was a new experience of wearing glasses (of any kind) for the first time. He said that the yellow tint took a little for him to be accustomed to because initially did not look natural. Also, he noted, that when looking out the sides of the glasses, he noticed a bright glare on occasion when looking at other light sources; which was another thing for him to get adjusted to. However, the more he wore the glasses, the easier it was to adjust to the yellow tint and the bright glare was not as noticeable. He recommended wearing the glasses because it was easier to look computer monitors and smartphone screens without the extreme brightness of the screen; and his eyes did not feel as tired when he wore them later in the evening.

Some questions you should ask yourself:
- When you work on your computer, do you find that you don’t look away to give your eyes a break?
- Do you often complain of headaches when you are looking at you’re computer for long hours?
- Do your eyes feel tired or blurred after working on the computer?
- Are you staying awake at night finding it hard to sleep?
If you answered yes to any of those questions you might consider computer glasses. You may not think that glasses are cool. But guess what? Spektrum glasses are more than that. The designs are cool and they protect your eyes.
I wear prescription glasses and Spektrum also has a varied array of computer glasses that you can add your prescription. The prescription glasses retail for $89. I chose the design below because I really enjoy wearing tortoiseshell and they are fashionable.
