MAJOR CAUSES OF DIGITAL EYE STRAIN
![](https://gunnars.com.my/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/cause-img.webp)
DRY EYE
Intense computer use reduces blink rate up to 60% exposing sensitive corneal tissue to damage
MUSCULAR EYE STRAIN
Extended near-distance viewing fatigues eye muscles that flex to create near distance focus
ARTIFICIAL, HIGH ENERGY LIGHT
High energy blue light strains visual systems and and affect circadian rhythms and sleep
GLARE AND VISUAL NOISE
Reflections, glare, and unwanted light sources create visual conflicts with the screen
BEYOND BLUE LIGHT PROTECTION
USE GUNNAR PATENTED TECHNOLOGY TO ADDRESS ALL MAJOR CAUSES OF DIGITAL EYE STRAIN

Block Blue Light: GUNNAR carefully filters the light spectrum to eliminate high energy spikes and cut blue light. The GUNNAR BLUE LIGHT FILTER ® (GBLF) rating tells you exactly the percentage of blue light blocked. Choose the right tint for your needs.

COMPUTER USE SLOWS BLINK RATE
Dry Eye is the number one symptom of digital eye fatigue. Extended computer use slows the blink rate and leaves delicate eye issues exposed to drying air currents.

KEEP MOISTURE CLOSE AND AIR CURRENTS OUT
Properly fitted GUNNAR eyewear has been shown to double the relative humidity of the eye pocket. Choose a frame that fits your face well. For extreme dry eye relief, consider our Tallac style with patented side shields that offer extra protection.

Post LASIK? One of the most common side effects of corrective eye surgery is dry eye. Protect your investments and use GUNNAR eyewear while looking at screens
LET THE LENSES DO THE WORK
Extraocular and intraocular ciliary eye muscles work in tandem to put your screen in focus. Long sessions without breaks can overwork those eye muscles. GUNNAR patented lenses provide focusing power that allow the eye muscles to relax during extended digital screen time.
0.2 GUNNAR FOCUS
Our most popular option: A slight focusing power to relax eye muscles. Good for anyone with 20/20 vision (including contact wearers or post-LASIK patients).
0.0 NEUTRAL FOCUS
No focusing power. Good for developing eyes (youth) or slight myopes (negative prescriptions) and distance viewing outdoors.

VISUAL ERGONOMICS
Eye focus affects your entire posture. People with myopic tendencies may compensate by leaning in to get closer to the screen. Presbyopic or hyperopic people may lean back or try to get more distance from the screen. We recommend a focusing power that promotes a neutral posture.
For a custom prescription, measure the distance from your screen to your eyes before you visit a doctor.
