because if you read the article its about blue light filters to aid sleep not ease of reading.

The the grift wheel on this particular bandwagon is strong. To the point where my fucking glasses have a blue filter on them, which fucks up my ability to do colour work becuase everything is orange.

Blue light filtering lenses come at a premium. You don't accidentally get them.

Let me explain how many times I went back-and-forth with the opticians about "is this coating/feature optional?"

[cpburns2009]

My optician's office charges an extra $100 for blue light filtering. They at least make it clear it's optional but recommended for frequent screen use.

I wasn't paying for them, so it was very much accidental.

You should go back and demand they be replaced. Such a mistake isn't something you should tolerate.

I don't go to that optician anymore.

The list of mistakes were as follows:

1) it corrected my eye with a slight astigmatism, but over corrected my other eye, so the agregate was pretty much the same

2) the aformentioned blue filter, which is part of the anti-glare coating.

3) my non-astigmatic eye was incorrectly marked with a prescription

4) I don't actually need glasses because I can see to the bottom of the eye chart without them. Its just as I'm now older, my vision is not as good as they used to be.

5) these were designed for "close work" but actually don't really help me focus closer to me.

However, arguing that, as a non-proffesional with only a passing understanding of optics (non-biological) with a large multinational company doesn't seem like a good use of time.

Someone ran up to you and put them on your face?

If you wait long enough cataracts will give you that for free.
