The Vision Council of America estimates that 70% of U.S. adults experience digital eye strain because of the increasing use of digital devices. In addition to the headaches, focusing strain and dry eye issues caused by the lack of blinking, the artificial blue light emitted by our screens disrupts melatonin production and circadian rhythm, affecting the body's natural sleep cycle.

GUNNAR premium computer eyewear addresses all short- and long-term side effects of digital eye strain, including headaches, dry eyes, blurry vision, glare, negative biological effects of artificial blue light, eye strain, and fatigue. The result – healthier eyes with improved clarity, focus, and acuity. GUNNAR is the only patented gaming and computer eyewear recommended by doctors to protect and enhance your vision.
