can this pair of glasses protect our eyes? I mean when we watch computer for a long time, is it helpful ?

I am not sure if these glasses were meant for computer viewing. I purchased them to use with a blacklight. If you wear regular glasses, these will not fit over them. Hope this helps you.

I can wear a pair of low profile safety glasses without issue. Normal glasses probably not. The eye spaces have a steel mesh screen in them. It's a mask for airsoft.

No, i think they are designed to be used instead of any other kind of glasses. Remember that these glasses are in fact 2 pair of lenses, so i suppose there is no space to another pair (the user here is in fact my mom, so these are my thoughts without being a direct user). But according to her, they are very, very good. FGS.

These glasses are just for the computer screen glare (they don't magnify anything). Hope you find what you need :-)

I'm not entirely sure, but I imagine it means these glasses don't magnify anything. They just help protect your eyes from the strain of looking at the computer screen for hours and hours... They sure seem to help me.

Yes! And I have 20/20 vision. (Nearly 50 years old and don't need glasses to to read either) I said all that to say this; Somehow these glasses enhance 3D experience when watching Blu ray 3D. Standard passive 3D glasses like LG for instance do not compare to these Oakleys. and I'm sure there are better ones out there... but I am completely satisfied with these Oakleys. Good luck!

Yes, they are, with the advantage that you can attach them to your eyeglasses when you are using the computer and then remove them when you're done with the computer.

I use them for driving but I do not see why they could not be used for any glasses. I doubt you would see much difference using them for reading. Blue blockers are most effective when they filter out the blue in outdoor vision.

They should be fine without glasses. My friends use mine and never have a problem. However, if you plan on being pretty active, you might want to purchase regular sized eye protection just to be sure.

These are indeed not suitable for driving as they almost fully block blue light! These are primarily protective glasses and they provide good "physical" protection against anything that can get into your eyes (e.g. in a lab or manufacturing area). The secondary 'property' of these specific pair with orange lens is to block blue light. In certain industrial environments continuous and/or high level of blue light is present which can cause damage to, or at least fatigue of the eyes. So, the blue blocking property helps to mitigate that for the workers. Now, most of the consumers here (me as well) are buying these for their blue blocking capability and not the physical protection. Generally, the blue (and green to some extent) light is one of the causes of eye fatigue for individuals who work in artificial light (e.g. fluorescent), and with computers (the monitor being the source); therefore, some people are getting the glasses for helping with that. Another interesting advantage of wearing these is for those people like me who have delayed sleep phase syndrome: it has been found that these individuals can benefit from reduced blue light, a few hours before sleep. By reducing the blue light with these glasses, the amount of disturbance to the sleep is reduced - at least it is working for me. - For reference on the protective property of the glasses please visit "http://uvex.us/uploadedFiles/ProductConfiguration/ProductLiterature/skyperfamily.pdf" - For reference on the lens tint property please visit "http://www.uvex.us/uvexlenstechnology.aspx?id=4178" - For delayed sleep phase syndrome and the effect of blue light please check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_sleep_phase_disorder#Non-pharmacologic Cheers, hhsquall

Unfortunately I don't know the specifics. I use them to block damaging rays when I work on the computer. They work well for that. My eyes do not get tired as quickly.

My sleep doctor told me to wear blue filtering glasses to help me sleep. He said to wear them at night when on the computer or watching TV because the blue light tricks your body into thinking it's daytime and produces hormones to keep you awake. By the way, I am looking. I haven't bought any yet so I appreciate reading your reviews. Thanks!

I wear gaming glasses for the glare, since I'm on the computer all day long and it's not bad. The sound canceling does work well. They work particularly well for webinars, or online meetins through Citrix and the like. All in all, a good purchase and I would recommend.

You can, just like any pair of glasses. But I would not expect these glasses to protect my eyes. I doubt that they are rated as safety glasses.

My eyesight has deteriorated to the point where I can't drive anymore. These glasses might help a little as the field of view is relatively large but they will not help you see oncoming traffic from left or right. Also, rhey are intended fir TV viewing at a distance of 8 or 9 feet and objects further away are blurry. I think Eschenbach makes some for other distances. Check their website.

Yes. They work really well. I even gave out some to friends that have glasses.

Yes....I have dry eye from my medications. My doctor recommended this product to me. My question to you is. . .do you wear computer glasses? I do. I also sit about 18" from my desktop screen. I have been computer literate since 1993 (I am an old lady of 70) and my eye doctor formulated a pair of glasses then just for using when I did my work on my computer. But Refresh is a good product and helps with my dry eye.
