I've never understood what the fuck these glasses are supposed to do

>>57827387
Why, are you retarded?

>>57827375
Actually the colors look better because they're not washed out.

You need to be blind to have issues seeing the monitor on lowest brightness.

>>57827407
Maybe. So what are they for?

>>57827351
my cool hip and modern doctor once prescribed a pair of these because I told her Korean ass that I spend a lot of my time in front of a computer. Never went to pick them up from the designated glasses docter so never got to experience high end gunnars.

>dimming monitor to save electricity costs

Holy fucking shit, this board needs flags so we can laugh at the pajeets when they try and say something smart.

You have an oled monitor?

filter blue light
My optometrist actually recommended me some (not gunnars, a different brand) when I said I spend over 12 hours/day staring at my computer.

Filter out blue color wavelengths

People who get eye strain are actually just pussies

whats the supposed benefit of doing that? Other than making things look yellowish?

>>57831086
making things look yellowish instead of blueish reduces strain on your eyes

>>57827351
I do this to save electricity
it seems OK but only when you are used to it.

Then you spend half hour on something like plasma TV and your 15% brightness monitor suddenly looks disgusting

>>57827351
>eye troubles from computer monitors were retards not realize they can turn down the brightness
what

>>57827351
>zero eye strain, can stare at screen for 10 hours with no issue

I have trouble reading unless my backlight isn't on 80%

You're like one of those losers in school that played with children 3 years younger than you because everyone else picked on you.

>>57831390
and you're like one of those kids that hangs out on 4chan, pretends it's theirs because you don't fit in with your generation on your generation's sites like facebook, twitter, tumblr

What the hell is wrong with your eyes? Go see a doctor you almost blind faggot.

Lowest brightness is usually too low to be comfortable, it's only useful on a laptop if you're really desperate for battery life. Still, you should reduce the brightness as much as possible while still maintaining viewing comfort (a good way to figure out the optimal level is to turn brightness all the way down, and then slowly increasing it by just a bit until it's OK).

I like having 2 22" screens at around 275 cd/m2 searing my eyes though.

I want accurate colours and I work/play in a well lit room anyway.
