“Blue light glasses” Yes or No

Here’s how we approach conversations about blue light glasses at Got Frames

When patients ask about blue light filters, we explain that the current evidence is insufficient to recommend them generally. Still, there’s no reason to think the lenses have a negative effect. If someone is already wearing blue light lenses and feels they help, we are happy to continue with them.

From there, we focus on the bigger picture, and we ask follow-up questions such as: When was your last eye exam? How much time do you spend on digital devices daily?

We also share practical advice: Follow the 20-20-20 rule to reduce digital eye strain.

Ultimately, it’s about informed choices and good visual habits—not just lenses. We often discuss the possible dry eye issues, but that's a different topic.
