Long hours at a computer can create eyestrain, which often leads to headaches and fatigue. Between working all day and playing video games all evening, most geeks are at the computer for as much as 12 \u2013 14 hours a day.
Gunnar i-AMP Digital Performance eyewear is designed to be worn while working at a computer to minimize eyestrain. After trying out the glasses, I can attest that the product works. Plus, the glasses fit well right out of the box, are reasonably fashionable, and are available as prescription glasses. (The adult size frames are only slightly too big for the kiddo in this photo.)
For more details about the product, read my Geek Gift Guide 2010 review of the Gunnar i-AMP digital performance glasses.
