Best blue light glasses for computer use?

Just go grab some eye drops—you know, the artificial tears.
And seriously, when you're staring at the screen, try to actually blink. Like, a lot. It sounds silly, but it matters.😬
Plus—and my doctor actually hammered this point home—you really need to take a breather every 45 minutes or so. Just five minutes where you cup your palms over your eyes, shut out the world, and think about absolutely nothing.😬
Oh, and watch your hydration too... drink plenty of water. It helps.😬
But even after doing all that—the drops, the breaks, the water—I'm still seeing zero results. Nothing.
....Anyway, just look after your eyes and maybe go ahead and buy the glasses anyway.😬
...I read somewhere that you're supposed to take a break every half hour to stare into the distance and practice focusing your vision... but at my job, they set things up so I only get breaks roughly every hour and a half or two hours😠 so besides my eyes looking like bloodshot cherries,😵 I'm also going through nicotine withdrawal...🙂
