Zenni's online. I've ordered several pairs. You can upload a photo of your DC and virtually try on glasses. They work for computers and TVs. Helps for migraine sufferers.

My teen DD got these when school went remote because her eyes were bothering her. They seem to work.

NP - I just learned about a company that makes blue light blocking glasses. They also make glasses and frames that are sized for kids.

Us too. We got adult ones for our young teen. They were recommended on the thread about headaches on here. I got the exact ones the person recommended. No headaches since. If it's placebo effect, totally fine with me

We bought the extra filter for my kid's glasses for another $100... then I read this and did research and informed them that he didn't need them (the next time he needed a prescription). I trust the Amer. Acad. of Ophthamology more than any Optometrist or Optician.


OP here, thank you for taking the time to post this!

For a child/tween/teen? Only if you have big bucks. They are beautiful, but would not spend the money on a kid, they aren't better than any other brand for function.

It depends on the device. On the Kindle, it's called "blue shade". On our laptop, it's called "night light". It does take time to get accustomed to it.

You can also download an app to filer out blue light.

You can just set their device to blue light blocking mode. This makes their screen look less vibrant (tinted yellow) but it's easier to use than glasses. Most devices and laptops have this feature.
