My mom has severe migraines got these for her hasn’t taken them off!
These are great. My mom has used them 24/7. She uses them for everything even night driving and in the house. She says it clarifies everything and they really do help. The only thing that needs improvement is the clips, they are very stiff. The tint is great, does everything it says, very functional even for watching TV.

Clip -ons are uncomfortable and a pain to attach
These clip -on glasses are difficult to clip onto my prescription glasses. They slip on the glasses and require constant adjusting. They also cause my glasses to slip down on my nose. I have been wearing them all day and evening and found that they are helpful in our light, sunny home. They are a light colored pink, so they are good for reading. However, I already have blue light blocking glasses. I have photophobia. I do not get migraines. I had hoped that these would make watching Tv and working on the computer more bearable. They do not. I will probably keep them for reading, but have ordered another type of blue light blocking glasses that fit OVER my glasses. I will not ever get clip-ons again. (I now have 2 different blue light blocking clip ons. The first pair I bought had very tiny clips. They were even more difficult to attach.) So, these were disappointing for me. Perhaps they are better for preventing migraines. I hope to get prescription glasses with FL-41 lenses for daily wear. I am still looking for TV and computer blue light and glare blocking lenses.

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE
I recently had brain surgery and became highly sensitive to light. It hurt to let the dogs outside on a sunny day. I was recommended these glasses by a doctor and they are amazing. I put them on and walked outside and the difference was night and day. I didn't have to squint. I didn't have the roaring in my ears. It was perfect. I will update if something changes, but for now I'm very happy with them. I would definitely recommend them.

Works well, however ....
The lenses worked really well for my light sensitivity, however after a month and half of usage the spring in the device broke, alas I'm apparently outside of the window to return or replace. So there is that.

Works for headaches, hurts my nose
The pros: the rosy peach color WORKS. I suffer from migraines that are currently very out of control and affecting my ability to work. I wore these for a full day and after only a short time, my head felt better. I took them off because they are uncomfortable (see cons below) and within minutes, I noticed a headache starting.The cons: these are very uncomfortable. My glasses for my face well and are generally very comfortable. The clip pokes me in the "third eye" area between my brows. It's the hinge that allows these to flip up that causes this; I have a pair of similar clip on sunglasses that don't flip, and they fit comfortably. I feel that the hinge is superfluous, as the lenses don't obscure your vision when going from bright light outside to darker inside like sunglasses do. The other thing I'm not thrilled with is they are not antireflective, so despite having antireflective coating on my glasses, I gave to deal with the glare. The lenses are somewhat flimsy, too. Considering ever other pair of glasses with these lenses are over $100, I guess for the price point this isn't a surprise. But the only other option is a pair of fill glasses that fits overly my prescription glasses... And between wearing a mask AND a headset as a call center rep, that's too much on my ears.Verdict: if you wear prescribe prescription glasses and your are wondering if FL-41 tinted lenses will help your migraines, but don't want to wear a whole other pair of glasses on top of your frames, and don't want to spend hundreds on tinted prescription lenses without knowing if they will work, these are a good option. They are not a long term solution, though.

Great for migraine prevention
This product is excellent. I wear large frames, and the clip ons are still big enough for full coverage. Before using these, I used to get migraines, vertigo, etc from fluorescent lighting in the workplace and in stores. I couldn’t shop or go anywhere with fluorescents. As soon as I started using these, the number of fluorescent-induced migraines I’ve had has dropped to zero. The price tag is also great—most places overcharge for Fl-41 glasses, taking advantage of people who genuinely need their protection. The fact that I as a disabled person who has very little monthly income could afford these shows that this company is much more ethical than others out there in terms of pricing.Highly recommend these to anyone who needs Fl-41 coated lenses!

Flimsy bad quality
I wish to specifically say in this review: this product is overpriced for what you get. The glasses box is cheaply made Chinese crap. The glasses are made from some sort of flimsy plastic, it's like a toy. This is far too expensive for the price. There's also one more thing I wish to add. If you have issues with your nausea, if you have issues with motion sickness and you get annoyed or irritated if you have something on the eyeglasses, this will make it worse. The clip on crap thing is way too big and it causes me nausea because my eyes see that clip-on stuff in-between the eyes, it's very uncomfortable. It's so bad that it causes me a headache with nausea. Don't buy this if you have nausea. I can't understand for the life of me why did they make the clips so damn big. It's like you have something in-between your eyes. I wish I could return them, but I didn't keep the package.

These help reduce eye strain that leads to migraines
My neurologist recommended FL-41 lenses to help prevent migraines. If you don't know, this tint is different than the amber you see all over the place. These clip-ons are a good way to find out for yourself if FL-41 works for you. They did help me, especially if I found myself in a situation where light was starting to bother me and I could feel a migraine coming on. It reduced light-induced migraines in some situations, and it also helps a great deal with eye strain at the computer. (I use past tense because my migraines have been reduced by an injection medicine and I don't need these as much anymore.)This is only my personal experience, not a prescription--talk to your neurologist before you spend the money!
