- Sleek and feminine look
- Light weight glasses
- Great for your eyes
Gunnar is known for their computer glasses, which have lenses designed to lessen eye strain when using screens and devices that have blue light. They have a variety of different lenses to take a look at, depending on your style. The Elin Gunnar glasses are ones that are more feminine-focused, which is nice to see!
The Elin glasses are a part of the Kista collection, named after Nordic technology hubs, aimed at celebrating the key role women play in tech. These glasses actually look quite similar to a few pairs of glasses I have seen other women in tech wear generally, so I can see their design being popular.
They are smaller than a lot of pairs of Gunnar Glasses, giving a simpler and sleeker look. You can still see the word Gunner in the corner of one of the lenses, but it’s much smaller. The Elin glasses do come with a little carrying case, which is one of their original designs. I got the chance to check out the black version of these glasses, but they also come in pink as well as a semi-clear lens with animal print sides.
Like with all of the Gunnar glasses, there are two lens tints to choose from: clear and amber. Though clear does provide some greenlight protection, amber has been found to really help to protect against eye strain and otherwise improve eye health without having to do more than just wearing them. Both types of lenses are very mudge-resistant and inti-reflective as well.
The Gunnar Elin glasses are fantastic for those who want to protect their eyes from blue light and strain, but might not want to have a more obvious connection to gaming or games. It’s a sleek design that has a function as well.
