- Do these glasses actually reduce eye strain?
- Gunnar's lenses filter some blue light and add a slight magnification at the bottom, which many wearers say eases fatigue during long screen sessions. Results vary, and they are not a medical treatment.
- Will the amber tint affect how I see colors?
- Yes. The lenses give a warm cast, so whites look slightly yellow and color-critical work like photo editing or design can be affected. Many people stop noticing it after a few days.
- Can I get these with a prescription?
- The Atherton is sold as a non-prescription computer glass. If you need vision correction, you would have to use them over contacts or look at Gunnar's prescription options.
- How do they compare with Gunnar's plastic frames?
- The metal Atherton looks dressier and feels sturdier, but it is heavier and less flexible than the brand's plastic frames. The lens tint and magnification are similar across the line.
- What comes in the box?
- You get the glasses and a protective case, typically with a cleaning cloth. Check the listing for the exact accessories included.
- Where is the Gunnar Optiks Atherton Computer Glasses cheapest?
- At Designer Optics, for $94.63, as of our latest check.
