In a word yes. Let me explain.
When blue-light glasses can be useful, though, is at night, when blue light from screens can disrupt natural sleep patterns. Our bodies associate blue light with daytime, so being exposed to it when you’re trying to go to bed “pushes our internal clock later so that it’s harder to fall asleep and harder to wake up in the morning,” says Cathy Goldstein, an assistant professor of neurology at the University of Michigan Sleep Disorders Center.

I wish I could say I was one of those people that have their act together and don’t look at my phone or TV four hours before bed. However, I can’t say that for myself. If you are one of those people, then you probably don’t need blue light blocking glasses. I, on the other hand, swear by them. I’ve noticed I sleep better when I wear them in the evening and I have even noticed fewer migraines when I wear them at work.
My favorites are by the brand Blue Easy’s. They are a new company and the glasses are a much more sophisticated version of the Amazon cheapskis I have been wearing for the past year. They are scratch resistant (I’m SO clumsy so this feature is HUGE for me) and anti glare (which blocks 99% of the glare from entering your eyes). Plus I wear less makeup because the frames create a look on their own.
The styles are so chic and flattering (and light weight!). I’ve been wearing the style Hampshire because they have the sliiiightest cat eye which creates a more youthful look. I chose the “crystal” color option -they have a bunch to choose from.
