Really? Because my eyes definitely feel much better after immediately putting them on, while continuing to stare at a screen. I have a pair of glasses that are Rx level and have some anti-blue light coating that works amazingly well, and then a cheap non-Rx pair that works well enough. But both work. Unless it’s just Placebo Effect?
Maybe the question is, what is “Eye Strain?” They’re talking about visual performance, but usually when I put my blue light filtering glasses on, it’s because my eyes hurt after looking at a screen literally all day, whether working or gaming (and when gaming, I often turn screen brightness way up so I can see everything). And when I put them on, the pain goes away. So I feel like there’s some benefit there, but I don’t know what exactly what is being acted on. Or again, it’s just Placebo.
I mean, they’re already wearing blue light glasses, which also fuck up color perception. The color quality is kinda moot already, it’s simply a matter of what hurts their eyes less.
Do your blue light filtering glasses have magnification? Because magnification can definitely reduce eye strain by helping your eyes relax on close screens.

Everybody is an individual. There’s a woman whose nose is so sensitive that she can smell diseases on clothes. Your eyes just might be more sensitive to blue light than the average.
I have special eyes…
It’s so hard for me to remember this was a commercial because I just keep remembering the meme version of it.
Increase contrast, not brightness.
colors get fucked up when you increase contrast though

The Rx pair does have some power to it. Not much, but some. But the cheap pair are just planos. It only has the blue light filter.
Same with me
