Review on Global Vision Chicago Padded Riding Glasses - Black Frame with Red Lens: High-Performance Eye Protection by Jerome Godwin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blocks blue light. Ideal for melatonin production and photophobia. Small but not too small.

Great sunglasses if you suffer from photophobia! They are dark pink, almost red when you see through them. Indoors they work almost as well as my FL-41 goggles. Immediate relief from photosensitivity, especially in the sun as I live in the desert with photophobia. While they work indoors and I lose my FL-41 glasses, I mostly save mine for very bright days outside or days away from the office as they look sporty. I wear an XXL cap and I'm a tall, broad-chested man and although they're small they don't look ridiculous. They curve around my face so well and block most of the light that they sometimes fog up and I have to wipe them off every few hours. Although they are small, they are not uncomfortable; I've often slept with them at night because they're so comfortable and block blue light so well. They block blue light so well that I also use them when watching TV at night or walking my dog (under streetlights) to avoid disrupting my melatonin production. I used to take melatonin supplements at night, but now I don't need it because these glasses work well enough in the evenings. I take these glasses with me everywhere!
