the green question

[Ellie1991]

Has any one seen the news artical about wearing green lenses in glasses to help reduce pain

[Dinkie]

Not heard about green lenses but I wear blue tinted glasses for work and find they help alot with glare and headaches from concentrating on fine work for too long so I can't see why other colours shouldn't have other benefits.

I'm like Dinkie I have blue tint lenses to reduce sun glare and computers causing increased eye pain and Migraine. I do have a olive green pair and a yellow pair too , chosen for accessories but I checked that they gave the same level of light protection as my blue ones when I bought them. They work just the same and give me the option of changing up my look , as you can get a bit fed up wearing glasses all of the time , having different styles can stop you getting the funny comments when you are always wearing glasses that appear like sunglasses indoors.

Yes, but I think it said only a small number of people. I have TMJ, jaw joint distinction, so I already have a problem sometimes wearing my reading glasses, as they put pressure on the joint. So I don't think I could wear them and presume that I would need to have a green tint on phone/computer screen instead? I think you can already but thing to cut glare?

Hi I have to wear blue tinted reading glasses because if I don't I get eye migraines 👀👀

My choice has always been Rose Coloured.😉

You must update us all once you have tried them.

Also, aren't these going to look rather Funky, and not in a good way?🤢 But if they do work, who cares?

I use to use blue lens and a green over lay for my dyslexia

hi Ellie, have you read it? I read one yesterday from American health company ‘Healthline’. It appears to be well researched & tested out on the face of it. . I don’t know if this helps? Bm

Hi Ellie1991

Haven't read about the colour green reducing pain.

Although I have read that green is calming and maybe that would help in reducing pain?

For myself, green makes me depressed.

Blue is the colour that gives me a lift.
