SomniLight FL-41 Light Sensitivity Glasses for Florescent Light Sensitivity, Photophobia, and Migraines (Wayfarer Style)

these are sturdy and work great for their purpose. i spent the last week trying out one of the unreasonably expensive but heavily promoted pairs of FL-41 glasses that are on here. THIS pair of Somnilight glasses has the Exact same ability of the super expensive lenses, (at least i can't notice a difference.) and i think the frames of these Somni's are WAY sturdier plastic than that brand that cost double this price. i don't feel i need to worry that these will break if i take them off and set them somewhere, so very gently. these however, are sturdy; their plastic is not so slippery. they are mat, not glossed. for less than half the price of the cheapest expensive pair, these are a GREAT buy. light sensitivity, and so much time on the internet, i NEED these. i'm trying to get my mom to be open to wearing them, as she gets bad migraines. i'll update... oh, i have a smaller head and then are almost small enough for me, only a bit big. so that could a problem if you have a big head. i don't know if Somnilight has larger....but i hope they will soon, for anyone that needs bigger, like my mom.

I started experiencing insane, blinding, literally, migraines out of the blue at the age of 38. After seeing 5 different specialists it was determined I suffer from "vestibular migraines." I did some research and learned that computer lighting can be one of the causes. I already had blue light blockers but they were not sufficient. One article I read mentioned FL-41 lenses. I decided to give these ones a try. I actually switched jobs recently too from half field work half computer work to all computer work. So I am now on computer all day. Since these glasses arrived, I have not had a single major migraine yet. Therefore, I have concluded these things 100% work. I also started a vitamin regiment that I read about as well so it could be the combination of both but either way I highly recommend giving these a try before you go out and spend $200 on expensive migraine glasses. These ones are affordable and they do the job. I sometimes wear them around the house because we have LED lighting and it bothers me at times and they are also good for when you are messing around on your phone before bed. (for anyone interested the vitamins are B2-400mg, a six type magnesium vitamin, COQ10 and CBD.)

Why not five stars? Well... ok lets start with why I picked this pair and not the Aviator style, clearly this is the less attractive style but it does not have the little nose pieces that can get stuck in my hair if I put the glasses on my head and of course less little things that could potentially get loose screws and fall off. I bought this because I have chronic migraines and I wanted to test out FL-41 glasses to see if they would help with not only my migraines but also my really bad photophobia.Day one I opened the blinds a bit and was able to tolerate sunlight, oh wow no more vampire, HOWEVER, it was not long before I noticed the ear pieces of the glasses were pressing into the back of my head and causing a headache from the pressure. I attempted to gently bend the ear pieces outward without breaking them... and maybe with a little more time, patience and some heat I may be able to get it to move a bit but so far its still pressing into my head.Day two, I drove to work, it was nice to step outside and say "Its a Beautiful Day" instead of "The World is Too Bright!" Then I quickly realized these are not sunglasses, you will still want to wear your sunglasses on a bright sunny drive to work. They did help me to survive the harsh lighting in the break room at work and at the computers, and no one mentioned that I looked like Garth from Waynes World.If these work well for me I will eventually invest in a prescription pair of FL-41 glasses, but I did not want to make that kind of costly investment without first giving this a try. These would definitely be something that I would be able to wear into a place with harsh lighting such as walmart or CVS.I considered giving this three stars because honestly I do not believe that these are a good example of a FL-41 glasses, but I wanted an inexpensive pair to try out before deciding to invest in a high quality expensive pair, for the price this is a decent introduction to the tint for my experimental purposes.

I've had chronic anxiety my whole life, and I'm 36, and the last few years my vision at work has changed while under fluorescent lighting. I work as a nurse and I'm constantly under them. Things always seems very intense, dreamlike, and I would ignore it and try and focus my vision. Sometimes I felt like I was going crazy or losing my mind because of how hard it was to see and focus. I bought these because they block the spectrum of light produced by the fluorescent lights and its so wild. Everything looks, "normal." Everything in my vision is easy to look at and process. I must have severe photosensitive to fluorescent lights because my world has changed wearing these. Other people have tried them on and they say things looks more intense so they're really are meant for people who take in more light or have sensitivity to fluorescent lights. Flight or flight chronic states can make people take in more light and suffer, if you have severe anxiety and suffer from light problems and vision problems try these out. I don't wear them outside, only inside.

Very poor lens quality I would like to return this and I am trying to return this product and the seller sent me to a return center 45 miles from my address when there was one 4 miles from my delivery address. The messaging for this supplier does not work, and I can not contact Amazon as the messaging on this product does not work. I want Amazon or the seller to refund this product. Happy to send it back if you were to give me a center within the distance of the delivery address. Now I am not at this address and can not even refund it and both Amazon and the seller leave no contact and the messaging does not work.

They work well but even with a small head the glasses and lenses are to small. The lights shine over the top of the glasses. And for them to fit on my head they have to be pushed back to my lashes.
