I Wear My Sunglasses at Night, Part 2

As a follow up to my previous posts about the importance of minimizing blue light during the day and blocking it at night, I thought I would write about my recent experience with my new Daywalker Elite and Twilight glasses by TrueDark.

I received a pair of Daywalker glasses in my most recent Biohacked Box, a box of items curated by biohacker Dave Asprey himself and sent out quarterly. I liked the style better than the Swanwick glasses that I purchased at the 2016 Bulletproof Biohacking Conference, and while the Daywalker glasses appear to be not as deeply tinted, I have not noticed a significant difference when staring a computer screen for hours at a time, or when driving at night. WARNING: Neither Swanwick nor TruDark products are approved for driving at night.

The Twilight glasses look a bit out of a science fiction movie, part Night Owl, part Batman, with the ridges along the brow. The foam lining the glasses ensures no stray light penetrates the sides, robing you of your precious melatonin.

The Twilight glasses are a little bulkier than my red tinted aviators, so they will likely not replace my aviators in my daily carry bag that accompanies me out of town, but I will certainly use the Twilight glasses when I am home.

If reducing blue light is not part of your daily routine, I highly recommend it, and I also highly recommend TrueDark.

Stay well engineered,

Devon
