The company calls them 'Gunnar' and they are here to reduce all the ill effects of staring at a computer screen all day long.

The one I tested were graphite grey and had a very slim design to it. This slim design brought up some doubts. As I was using the glasses I felt that the frame was just a tad flimsy and I felt like they would bend if handled a bit rough. Overall they look sharp but I personally felt they were a bit on the flimsy side.

Performance

Now on using my pair of Gunnar, I felt that they worked best while watching TV and not as useful while using the computer. I mean they magnified my vision and the view was a bit clearer. The biggest difference is outside. They add a type of filter to your vision making everything seem just a smidge warmer. I can't say they directly improve contrast, but the tint is fairly helpful.
