My anecdote: I got glasses this year specifically to counteract astigmatism related to the past 20 years of looking at screens for 8+ hours/day. I was beginning to get headaches every day from working. I didn't even know my eyesight was suffering until someone suggested I go get an exam.

When I saw the blue-light filter option, I jumped at it because I knew I'd be spending most of my time wearing glasses looking at a computer screen anyway.

The blue filter they treat lenses with is very mild, though. It's maybe a 20% reduction. I now wear the glasses all the time even though I don't really need to, and the filter isn't noticeable at all.
