Working from home has revolutionised the way we dress for work: goodbye stiff suits, hello loungewear. But whilst we’ve embraced a more relaxed approach, it’s still important to establish boundaries between home and work life. Enter blue-light blocking glasses: the easiest way to look and feel professional without sacrificing comfort. (And they come with added health benefits too…)

First up - the health benefits of blue blockers

If you spend your day glued to a screen, you’ve probably heard about blue light’s potential impact on eye strain, headaches, and sleep quality. Blue light blocking glasses aim to reduce digital eye strain, helping you power through emails without the dreaded afternoon fatigue. While science is still debating their full effectiveness, many wearers report fewer headaches and improved focus: something every remote worker could use.

Look professional on Zoom calls

For most of us, video calls are a WFH reality, and looking polished (at least from the shoulders up) makes a difference to how you look on screen, and also in how you feel. A pair of sleek blue light glasses instantly adds a touch of professionalism, even if the rest of your outfit is still leaning towards ‘casual Friday.’ Whether you go for a bold, statement frame or a minimalist style, blue blockers are an easy way to pull your look together while protecting your eyes.

A small ritual to get into work mode

When working from home, it’s easy to blur the line between professional and personal life. While we no longer need to dress up for the office, establishing small rituals - like slipping on a stylish pair of blue blockers when you sit down at your desk - can help signal the start of the workday. Most of us probably don’t miss the early morning rush of getting ready for a commute, but we still need something that helps put us into “work mode”: this is where blue light blocking glasses are ideal!

The perfect accessory (even if you have 20/20 vision)

Many of us long for an excuse to wear stylish glasses, even if we don’t actually need to. And now, blue light glasses offer a stylish solution for those of us with perfect vision. They’re an effortless way to elevate your look, making you feel put together even on the most chaotic workdays. They’re a productivity-boosting style hack that deserves a place in every WFH wardrobe.
