Is there any reason why someone would wear/buy these if they have no problems looking at computer screens all day? I stare at my computer screens anywhere between 3-12 (maybe more sometimes) hours a day but have never really experience headaches or dry eyes. Have been on the fence about buying Gunnar glasses for awhile now.

MickifreeI will say, I was on the fence too, I don't require normal glasses so the idea of wearing gunnars for a problem I didn't have (eyesoreness, dry eyes etc.) seemed dumb. I wouldn't say I noticed my eyes feeling any different, but when I get frustrated that I didn't get a sleeker pair (intercept frame is what I got) and would take them off, within 4-5 minutes I'd feel a sharp pain in my eyes. I have been using these after work at 12PM but I've never experienced a pain like after taking the glasses off. Could be the brightness of my monitors, or my eyes quickly got used to being protected? I'm still considering joining this drop just to get something more sleek. I have a separate issue in that the light from my face is reflecting back onto the inside of the glasses causing massive fuzzy glare; can't say for sure if it's defective lenses or the lenses are just too far from my face (which is why I want something sleeker)

AiruolCheck out f.lux. These filter out a certain spectrum of light and f.lux does it natively on your PC. Granted, I'd still rather have my Gunnars than rely on f.lux for simplicity.
