Geek Apparel – Look Cool & Be Cool

April 1, 2010

We’ve had enough of weird clothes this week and I thought we’d do some more sensible. Considering how much time we spend on our laptops, phones, PDA’s etc., it is pretty much safe to say that our eyes aren’t in the best of shape. This problem incidentally can be solved with the application of a little science.

The thing is that most fluorescent lights have a large percentage of blue in them, and this blue isn’t very healthy for the eyes. (Stare at a blue LED or something and see for yourself..) If only we could have something, possibly goggles that would shift the light to the warmer part of the spectrum, then the toll that the light would take on our eyes wouldn’t be that great. And this is exactly what these goggles, called the GUNNAR goggles do.

Specially built for computers, these look pretty cool too. These are light weight, comfortable and come in five different varieties, Edge Onyx, Edge Ash, Weezer Onyx, Marley Mercury, and Rocket Mercury.(Quite a mouthful no?) The lens is yellowish in colour and acts like a blue light filter. (See Pic).

Buy this from Thinkgeek for about £ 50 – 60.
