TIJN Blue Light Blocking Glasses

So, I took these TIJN Blue Light Blocking Glasses for a spin and, first things first, they do have a stylish vibe. The frames are lightweight, which is a plus because no one wants to feel like they’re wearing a ton of bricks on their nose all day. However, the real question is whether they actually help with screen time. After a few days of use, I noticed less eye strain, so they seem to be doing something right there. But let’s not kid ourselves — they’re not a magic bullet for all screen-related woes.

These glasses are supposed to block blue light, which is believed to mess with sleep and cause eye strain. If you’re staring at screens late into the night, you might find they help you wind down a bit easier. That said, don’t expect miracles. They’re not going to suddenly cure insomnia or make you fall asleep faster than a baby in a car ride. But if you’re someone who’s sensitive to light or prone to headaches, there might be some relief here.

The build quality feels decent, though I wouldn’t put them in the “indestructible” category. They’re not super expensive, which is great because you don’t want to pay through the nose for something you might lose or sit on by accident. The lenses are clear, not the yellowish tint you sometimes see with other blue light glasses, so you get a more natural view. That’s a bit of a win if you’re picky about how things look on screen.

Now, for folks who wear prescription glasses, there’s a catch. These come as is, no prescription option, which might be a bummer if you wanted to merge your vision correction with the blue light blocking feature. You'll have to resort to wearing them over your normal glasses, which isn’t ideal. But if you’ve got 20/20 vision or wear contacts, you’re in the clear. Just something to keep in mind if you’re part of the four-eyes club.

In the end, the TIJN Blue Light Blocking Glasses are a nice-to-have for those who spend a lot of time on screens. They’re not going to revolutionize your life, but they might help with some of the minor annoyances that come with endless screen time. They’re stylish without being over-the-top, and they don’t break the bank. If you’re curious and have a few bucks to spare, they could be worth a shot. But, as always, don’t expect them to replace good old-fashioned breaks from the screen.
