Maybe 90% towards the UV range but with those but will slope towards 40-50%at actual blue range. It’s technically not false advertising but is misleading
Actually the J+S blocks out 52% of the blue light, they claim it blocks out 90% of "harmful " blue light. And you’re right the percentage of blue light blocking it goes along the color of the lens with some red lens being able to block up to 100% of blue light.
Im new to your channel, very good job! Thanks for the helpful info!
In one of your other videos I thought you explained the difference between blue light filtering glasses and computer glasses. Since computer glasses have magnification and these do not, would they not just be considered standard blue light filtering glasses?
i am programmer so tell me which one is the best and cheapest one
Speaking of cleaning lenses, my regular Rx glasses set smudged frequently. I found using the provided lens wipe just smeared dirt around and then got dirty itself.
I have since been cleaning them under the faucet with dish detergent. Is that bad? Am I ruining my lenses? What is the best way to clean them?
Any recommendations for decent, affordable wear over or clip-on computer glasses (to wear over prescription glasses)?
This was super helpful and well done, well organized. Much appreciated!
I have owned and worn the j&s for almost 2 years now absolutely love them they are exteeeeemwly comfortable I honestly forget they’re even on my head! I’m not very careful with them either and they still look and feel exactly like they did the say I opened them! Worth every penny of 25 bucks I paid for them
I bought the gammarays, and personally think that it’s crap. One lens blocks blue, the other purple.
Also, shouldn’t the lenses circle around your complete eye sight, or shouldn’t the glasses somehow close off the sides? I’m asking because the lenses aren’t blocking from just one side, but both. Which means the light that is coming in from the sides and rear are also being filtered, and the blue light is now concentrated from the cambered lenses and being shot straight into your eyes. So whats the point of these "normal" shaped glasses? The only scenario where these would work is in a pitch black room.
There is no need computer glasses and no need blue light glasses cheak in chrome please stop fooling people
Hey Oliver, thank you so much for your videos. They are most helpful!
I wanted to ask what your opinion would be on the Barner Computer Glasses. They are currently crowdfunding for their second edition of computer glasses. Their first release seems to have done well and fetched some good reviews. Link to their current campaign can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/edugaya/barner-20-the-ultimate-computer-glasses/updates
I am working at a computer all day and have developed eye strain and a little bit of dryness, so I’m looking for a solution for everyday use. I too tried out the Flux program but I’m not an avid fan of the tint as it interferes with the true monitor colour when I’m painting.
What drew me to the Barner brand specifically was the design/colour range and sunglasses clip-on option as well as the lack of obvious yellow tint. As you’ve mentioned about other brands, Barner also doesn’t talk about magnificaiton and I don’t know how to find out if they have it or not.
Thank you for your time,
Toni

Looking for computer glasses. Any recommendations?
why I would like to choose Gunnar or Felix Graw?
Dear sir i am software developer suggest for me the best computer glass to release my eyestrain as well as blue light filtering
Great video sir. Is the spektrum same as Prospek??
Are you able to do actual tests on different computer glasses/blue light filter glasses to see how much they actually reduce blue light compared to what they claim
Can you get sunglasses with 400 UB protection and at least 50% blue light protection ?
Great video! Informative, concise, and entertaining. I hope you keep making videos, you’re the best reviewer on this topic by far!
are they ok or is better to get the more expensive ones?
Thanks for the videos – nice to have someone do all the research for us ๐
I am a graphic artist and need a pair, hopefully sub-$100, and need a large frame. You mentioned in one of your videos that Gunnars weren’t big enough for you? Is there a brand or frame option you suggest? I was settled on Gunnar until I heard you mention (in another video) that they were too small for you. Thanks in advance!
Love from india
But these 3 glasses only blocks blue light, or do they have those computer glasses characteristics like centered "optical center" with some magnification ?
Hi Oliver
I previously bought a pair of gunnar glasses and they actually cause me to have a bit of eye discomfort. I have slight astigmatism in both my eyes but so slight that I still maintain 20/20 vision and as a result never worn prescription glasses all my life. I also tried the uvex skyper, they worked great with no discomfort , however, the color distortion was just too much for me to use at work. I want to give the glasses in the video a try but I am afraid of what happened with the gunnars, I suspect my problems with the gunnars were because of their .25x magnification. Could you tell me if the glasses in the video have magnification? If not, did you test them like you did with the gunnars? thanks you!
My age 29 and Plz suggested me computer gasses and tell me meginficatino require or nt this age
i just hate how big all the frames are, sadly the cheaper ones fit me better, fuck, hard to find small rectangle ones
are these better than gunnar optiks?
Eyeglasses with Babish
Acetate frame and he90 which is better
I wish J+S made matte frames. Glossy frames are so annoying to me.
Great video!!!
Can you recommend me some computer or blue light blocking brands glasses for kids. Or how about make a video tho. Thanks a lots. U have a nice YouTube channel
sir, can you please tell best computer glasses around 10 to 15 dollars. Gunnar and Felix are very expensive. I can’t afford them, please help
j+s is the best in the price range. come on man prospek is twice the price

Price was around 10$ doller in BD. Hence what Should i do now, which computer glass should i use?? Pls help me..
Hey man great videos. I watched most of your videos and they educated me a lot. Iโm liking the felixgray but they donโt have my size. My size is 55-17-140 what do you recommend since felixgray does not go up to my size. Iโm more interested in the computer glasses. Please advise thank you so much.
Great review! I will say I’ve been using the Gama Ray’s for over a year and you’re dead on with the smudging!! But..They’re really good glasses! You learn not to touch the lenses after you wipe them down. These glasses have all but eliminated my eye strain which lead to dry tired eyes. The frames are OK nothing special and the comfort is really good. They’re build quality is actually good. I myself recommend the Gama Rays.
Which is better for 4hrs of gaming j+s HD or LCD
Would paying a little extra for a pair of Barner glasses be a good choice? Love the videos man ๐
so guys gamma rays or J+S vision?
I’ve never seen a single person wear "computer glasses" in the office…quite strange, since there are more brands, by the year…
What about for RX?
So we know that the blue light is between 380-500 and the harmfull part is from 415 to 455 can we block the harmfull part for a safer work?. cuz I want to learn programing and I’m afraid about my only eye (the other is lazy)?
For everyone who has the J&S they do block 90% but he has the wrong ones.. I have both pairs. The one in the vid is for reading (low) and the the ones that block 90% are for gaming and they do have an amber tint on them. You have to select the correct pair for 90% (HD and theyโre only like 5 buck more on amazon) they last about a year had mine for 8months of heavy usage before I saw a real downgrade not too bad imo and Iโve only had the HD ones for a couple days but they seem way better hope this is helpful
You look like Jaby Koay! ๐๐
Is that HD or LCD on the j+s ?
Why didn’t you wear them to see how it’ll look?
Why this glasses yellow
My wife don’t needs glasses when she looks at my screen to check what I am doing.
