I can say I own two of those gunnars, but you're better off looking for a cheaper alternative.
What they provide is an f.lux experience, with a +1 magnification. their optics are quite clear, but no where near the marketing hype they claim.
When I compared a $10 pair of sunglasses to a pair of +$100 Oakley's I was like wowzered by the optics. It actually provided me with better contrast across the range, in all but rainy weather.
Always wanted to try one out after i saw that movie. So one day I got a tax benefit and could get them for free.
They shipped out the wrong model first time, so I got two.
They seemed really overpriced to me, but do help. Keep them on long enough and you'll see blue. I had clear benefits when for a year long I was doing online poker zombie shifts.
But on one without a frame, the legs came of fairly easily.
They were plastic and glued into the glasses. I still have to re-glue them, but never bothered. I might fix them and give them another go.
But for $100+ I'm getting a solid yet lightweight frame from Oakley, and a crappy plastic frame holding not-so-impressive optics together.
