This is mostly useless antidotal evidence, however:

I started wearing orange tinted glasses about a week or two ago, and I have noticed that they help me feel more tired when I'm trying to fall asleep. However it could just be a placebo. The downside is that I can't do any design work while wearing them, and programming is more difficult because code coloring is really off in Sublime. If I continue to wear them, I'll probably have to change my Sublime theme to something that's easier to distinguish.

Maybe that's a positive. If you're supposed to be winding down for bed, those are two activities you really shouldn't be doing.

When staying up to prog, use f.lux.
