Indeed. When I looked into these glasses some time ago I thought "wtf", but it turns out that reducing the blue light you get from the screen over long periods is easier on the eyes. Ofcourse, you can do this for free by just using the colour correction sliders in virtually all video cards/chips. Turn down blue to zero when working, turn it back to normal for doing other things (movies/etc). If you can use CMYK adjustment, that's even better. You can also use Powerstrip to quickly switch between low-fatigue and normal colour by assigning it to a key combo. The glasses are a rip-off but they're not pseudo-science.

Edit: found a really easy solution for this. Get NegativeScreen. Run it and in the tray icon, click "Edit Configuration" and replace the (negativescreen.conf) file with this:

Toggle=win+W

SmoothTransitions=true SmoothToggles=true

InitialColorEffect="Yellow"

Yellow=win+alt+Y { 0.33, 0.33, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 } { 0.33, 0.33, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 } { 0.33, 0.33, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 } { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0 } { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 }

The matrix there will convert all colours into a shade of yellow. Restart NegativeScreen and press Win+W to toggle yellow/normal colour. It defaults to yellow.

Yeah i think a lot of people having a problem with porn also have a problem with screen addiction in general.

I spend way to much time on the computer. youtube has been a terrible timewaster the last couple of years.

A weird, but quite effective way of battling this, is turning off colors on your monitor.

you can get a free program i use: http://arcanesanctum.net/negativescreen/

one of it's settings is grayscale. really not very fun to look at lol.

Here's what I do: NegativeScreen

It works similarly to the screen magnifier's "turn on color inversion" checkbox, but it has "smart inversion" so that red doesn't become blue.

The only gotcha is that the OneNote tray icon stomps on the shortcut key Win+Alt+N, and you need to disable ClearType or re-run the ClearType tuner for the inverted mode for best results.

This, along with F.lux is great for night-time computer use.

Good news! As someone with sensitive eyes, I figured out that you can take matters into your own hands. You can make your own life easier and do it yourself for any website using keyboard shortcuts. Sometimes you have to enable an option in the OS or download a program.

• OS X: Control-Option-Command-8. This is OS-wide, not just the app

• Linux on Compiz: open ccsm, enable the Negative plugin. Invert any window using Win-8

• Windows: there is a program called negative screen that should help

Happy browsing!

I found this little program at the suggestion of another redditor (shoutout to u/avidiax) in the post about the dark-themed calculator. The program I'm using is called NegativeScreen that I found here; excerpt:

>NegativeScreen is a Windows application allowing you to invert your screen colors. Apart from accessibility matters, this software is especially useful when you are surfing on the internet in a dark room, and the screen is dazzling you.

>NegativeScreen was designed to work without impacting the performances and fluidity of your computer.

>Different inversion modes are provided, including “smart” modes, allowing blacks and whites inversion, while keeping colors (about) the sames.

Additional Info:

• The default toggle on-off is Alt-Win-N, but I changed this to Alt-Win-Z because OneNote already has control of Alt-Win-N.
• There are 11 different preset, customizable modes (Alt-Win-f1 through f11); 3 of them are dedicated to value inversion with hue maintenance like in my photos. I used #6 (Alt-Win-f6)
• There is no installation, just a zipped group of files with the .exe file. You have to start the .exe first before the shortcuts will work. I made a shortcut to the .exe and put it in my startup folder so I don't have to run it each time I boot up.

PS: Here's how the calculator looks with the program active. Pretty spot-on to the original post!

Edit: Also, for those of you with Windows tablets like me, I used Touch-Me Gesture Studio to make a shortcut for the dark mode toggle. On my tablet if I swipe down with 4 fingers it toggles dark mode.

Windows – NegativeScreen – It's something that inverts your screen colors, but you can set it to grayscale as well

macOS – Go to Settings > Accessibility > Display > Use grayscale (or use the search to search for the option)

iOS 9 and below – Settings > General > Accessibility > Grayscale

iOS 10 and above – Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations > Color Filters > Grayscale

Try this

I use this program at work. White Spreadsheets hurt my eyes, this helps with the eye strain, but the different color options may help with color blindness issues.

I'm trying to sell my old Celestar 8 and get a proper GEM mounted C8 for this. Mind if I PM you at some point for recommendations and all? You've got to show me all your tricks.

Also, in case you didn't know, the handy NegativeScreen app has a setting to turn your screen red for night vision. I do visual astronomy only so this is a must-have.

Especially in early sobriety, staying sexually sober can be difficult if you work on adult sites. Consider using the open-source Windows freeware NegativeScreen or its Mac or Linux equivalent. If the site's video is shown in inverted colors, they may be so unrecognizable that they won't make you aroused. [Edit: If you can't install NegativeScreen, Windows Magnifier has an "invert colors" option. I still prefer NegativeScreen by far.]

If NegativeScreen doesn't work, consider removing your glasses before clicking "play", or watching a genre you don't like (maybe pornography showing actors aged 65+).

Could you change to a lower-paying job outside the pornography field?

Colorblind here as well! Dude totally agree with you. I work with things that deal with a lot of data and colors are often my nightmare. My friend, I invite you to try out Negative Screen (http://arcanesanctum.net/negativescreen/), where it helps to see a lot of the color differences once in Smart Inversion Mode, plus it has a very handy shortcut to activate/deactivate it (Alt+Win+N). It saves me 70% of the times, Spotify included!

If you run the game in windowed or fullscreen-window mode you should be able to use tools like NegativeScreen to alter your colours. It has a few presets built in but you can make your own if you have know-how of colour matrix transformations. :)

Something similar is NegativeScreen. It has a bunch of modes to allow you to invert the colors on your screen, which is great for night time viewing.

Add these to your .conf:

#Replaces Sepia, Negative Grayscale, and Negative Red settings

# Removes all blue. Pure blue things show up as a slight green. This is good for # people that want to avoid blue light because of jet lag, insomnia, or other # circadian problems.
