What are the advantages of buying computer glasses?

By purchasing computer glasses you protect your eyes from blue light and you will get obvious benefits. Some of them are: effective protection, greater visual comfort and healthier vision in the cyber age .

Find out how these glasses can improve your experience in front of screens:

Protect your eyes from the blue light emitted by screens

These glasses offer an effective barrier against this harmful light, reducing eye fatigue and protecting eye health. Work and enjoy your digital activities with peace of mind knowing that your eyes are protected.

They prevent visual fatigue

Computer glasses reduce annoying symptoms of eye fatigue by improving contrast and reducing glare. These features help your eyes to strain less when looking at the screen , preventing eye strain and headaches.

Additionally, by filtering out the high-energy blue light emitted by screens, they offer a more relaxed vision. This allows you to enjoy a digital experience without visual discomfort.

Prevent long-term vision deterioration

Excessive use of computer screens for long periods of time can contribute to long-term vision impairment. However, computer glasses have special filters that block harmful blue light, reducing its negative effects on visual health. By using these glasses, you take care of your eyesight and maintain clear vision in the future.

How to choose the right glasses for your computer

When selecting the perfect glasses for computer use, consider key aspects that ensure your visual protection and comfort.

Below we give you a series of Important tips for finding the ideal glasses that fit your lifestyle:

Consider the type of blue light filter

When choosing blue light filtering computer glasses, make sure to opt for those with selective wavelength blocking technology . These filters protect your eyes from blue light while allowing clear, natural vision without compromising the quality of your vision.

Check if you need prescription or non-prescription glasses

It is important to determine whether you need prescription or non-prescription glasses for computer use. If you already wear prescription glasses, we recommend opting for prescription glasses that incorporate a blue light filter.

However, if you do not need vision correction, non-prescription computer glasses are an excellent option to protect your eyes from the light emitted by screens. At Óptica Bassol we have both options to adapt to your specific needs.

Make sure they are comfortable

Make sure the glasses you choose are comfortable enough for long hours of work in front of the computer. Consider the ergonomics and fit of the frames , opting for lightweight models made of high-quality materials.

Look for options that avoid pressure on your nose and ears, as this will give you a discomfort-free viewing experience all day long.

Tips to take care of your eye health

In the digital age, taking care of our eye health becomes essential. Using glasses with a blue light filter can be very effective, but you should also take care of your eyesight by putting into practice some recommendations.

Here are some practical tips to protect your eyes from screens and maintain healthy vision:

• Give your eyes a rest every 20 minutes and focus on an object 6 meters away. This exercise helps you reduce eye fatigue and eye stress caused by prolonged use of screens.
• It is important that you visit your eye care specialist regularly to assess the condition of your eyes and receive personalized recommendations.
• Wearing blue light filtering glasses can help you block harmful rays and improve visual comfort.
• Keep a distance of 50-70 cm between your eyes and the screen. Also remember to adjust the brightness and contrast and activate the device's blue light filter.
