Highly recommend to anyone who feels they can't stare at a screen all day. I use these glasses and my eyes haven't felt tired yet. I just don't like the size. The frame is just a little too big for my face but it was all that was in stock and I needed it.
Comfortable enough, I don't feel them on my nose. I don't normally wear glasses.

These gaming glasses feel really well made. They come with a soft case and a cleaning cloth, and are not flimsy at all. I have a large size head, and they fit comfortably with no discomfort after extended wearing. The blue light filtering is excellent, and they really help ease eye strain and irritation.

I have to be on the computer over 8 hours a day and my eyes were suffering. They got really red, and they were extremely painful.
These glasses have made a huge difference. They don't eliminate the redness, but my eyes don't hurt anymore. It makes it easier for me to work and stay focused.
Although they are advertised as "gaming" glasses, they work just as well for any computer activity where you have to stare at a screen for hours.
These are the cheapest gunnar glasses I could find, and they look extremely geeky and large. Some of the newer versions are smaller and lighter. My brother has a pair of the more expensive ones. The nice thing about my pair is that the frame is very sturdy (plastic), where his are thin metal and feel really delicate.
I bought a case to go with mine but they don't fit, so don't buy a gunnar case if you get these glasses. If you get a more expensive version, with the metal frames, the case is pretty essential.

Back story: I stare at 2 computer screens on most days for about 8 hours a day. I also like to unwind with some FPS (first person shooter)gaming on my 55" 4K. I have blue eyes and 20/20 vision. I suffer from chronic headaches and migraines. Point being my eyes are extremely sensitive to all light. My eyes are constantly strained and while wearing my expensive polarized sunglasses inside (which is not "cool") helps, it's not practical. After extensive research for glasses that would aid me in my working conditions, I found that Gunnar eyewear was my safest bet. Since my purchase I am fairly pleased with the product. I am not use to wearing these type of glasses and it takes a bit to get accustom to the lens but once your eyes have adjusted (takes seconds) they are very comfortable and I swear I can hear my eyes let out a sigh of relief every time I put them on. Taking them off after long hours of use takes an adjustment. Other than that I have had no problems. The additional warranty that best buy offers for them is amazing! $10 for the warranty and I have already dropped and scratched the lenses. I took them to my nearest Best Buy (not the one I purchased them at) and they replaced them right there with a brand new pair! I wish I had that warranty on my sunglasses!

I don’t write reviews for items unless I am shocked in either good way or bad way. First of all I want to appreciate to Best Buy delivering fast and also the sales on these glasses. Usually it is $65.99 and in this sale time I got it for $38.99 + tax. I used to look at these glasses so much before too, but because they are expensive, I used to think they are very extra ordinarily good quality and I always wanted to buy them. Finally this time I saw there was sales and I got them. Delivered on expected day, so good. And when I opened and put them on after receiving, I liked the quality, it seems it is sturdy. But I didn’t like:
1 - my eyes are staring at me because of the reflection- and I can see my skin under my eyes from that reflection. Reflection goes away either when it is too bright or too dark. In anywhere between normal light go darkness - I am seeing the reflection of my eyes. Maybe it is because the lenses are slightly arched. But it truly bothers me, and this was my big off.
2 - the shape seems manly and big for my face: size is great, but the way it looks I didn’t like at the beginning, but your eyes will used to get to see yourself with them, so it’s fine. (Square bottom of the lenses make u more tough looking)
3 - I bought computer glasses from other cheaper place but with expensive blokz lenses and frame back in 2021, and they sent me blue light laser along with glasses with 450n. So I can check and see how much of blue light passes through the lenses. When I use that laser and hold against the lenses from outside and putting white paper behind the lenses, I see my old glasses pass less blue light than the Gunnar 65. I am just so astonished $65.99 glass is same as 35 glass and $35 lenses do even better job than the $65.99 lenses. I think I will keep them but would definitely return if I had gotten it for full price. I wouldn’t buy them for $65.99 neither.This is what I think after seeing and trying. But I didn’t work with them yet, I will see how they help me when I have to work with them all day.

These are great for protecting your eyes from the harmful blue light emitted from tv's and monitors. The fit is comfortable, the lenses are oversized, and the amber tint brightens up objects on the monitor. My eyes feel less strained after a long gaming session. Definitely will buy again and recommend to others.

I'm a 47yr old life long gamer and believe me when I say, these glasses are awesome. My eyes aren't what they used to be and certain games just kill my eyes and give me severe headaches. After reading reviews I got these to help and they went beyond what I was expecting. Quality made frames, the lenses actually enhanced the colors from my 4k TV and most importantly no eye stain and headaches!!.. I highly recommend these glasses for gamers that suffer from eye strain problems from playing..

These glasses are really nice if you are going to be looking at a computer screen for more than 2 hours. It reduces the strain on your eye so after a few hours they do not feel dry and they also reduce blue light coming from a screen and they are comfortable to wear.

They are good. Block out a lot of the blue light. Slight magnification of .035 or .05 of objects
I would recommend this to a friend

I've been using gunnar glasses for years and can't use a computer without now, I bought these because my other ones have a smaller frame and just needed an update! Long lasting product, great quality, I've had my other ones for more than 10 years and I'll still use them on some occasions, best purchase you'll ever make, your eyes will thank you!

I’m really enjoying these glasses so far—they’ve made a noticeable difference during long hours of computer use. The quality is excellent, and they’ve definitely helped reduce eye strain. I’d recommend grabbing them while they’re on sale to get the best value. In fact, I liked them so much that I bought a second pair to keep at work, so I don’t have to carry them back and forth. Highly recommend!

These are unbelievable. I am prone to eye strain and headaches, These help eliminate it. Really the comfort factor is incredible. They cut down the blue rays that enter the eyes causing strain. Feels like an eye massage. Very comfortable.

Must have for extensive computer work. Little more expensive than some, but, worth it. Light. Comfortable. Cuts the glare. Work all day without an eye strain headache.

Gunnar is experiencing quality control issues with Intercept lenses. This includes deformity in the plastic frame of the lenses. It also includes numerous scratches on the glass that are not very noticeable, but if you wash them with soap and water and dry them well, you will be able to notice them. These are also defects that affect the quality of vision. I told Gunnar about three pairs of glasses that had problems and they are investigating. I don't recommend you buy any more Gunnar pairs. Look for another, cheaper brand, such as Horus X.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

To be honest, I have no idea if these actually help with eye strain or headaches. I think they do, but it’s been really hard to identify a direct cause and effect situation. They definitely filter out the blue light well, and I think the screen images look sharper while wearing these. The fit is great though, and they’re comfortable to wear. So I suppose if they are helping with eye strain or headaches, I have no problem continuing to use them and believing they’re helping.

Love these! I have been using them for several weeks and see a significant difference. My eyes are not as tired when I get off of work after looking at my computer all day.

The GOOD:
I use a computer all day all day at work, then hit the XB1 before the wife gets home so it's a lot of screen time. These glasses are pretty solid and actually reduce the eye strain and keep your eyes from going blood shot. I originally got them b/c I had PRK lazer eye surgery, while they helped a great deal with the glare off of screens. Now I have a pair for work and a pair for home.
The BAD: you def look stupid in them.
