Peepers Blue Light Filtering Glasses Review

Peepers have made the highly coveted Oprah’s Favorite Things list SEVERAL YEARS IN A ROW! I’ve been keeping tabs on this list for decades and don’t recall anything else making the list this many times.

That’s how I originally learned of the brand, and I loved how chic the thick styles looked on Oprah, but I have a fairly petite face and was concerned that the ones I loved so much on Oprah wouldn’t look good on me personally.

I wear blue light glasses all day, every day due to dry eyes from long hours at the computer both for my day job and blogging. They also offer me bookish style for reading on my Kindle.

Before I started wearing them, my eyes often hurt so bad at night that I would have to “watch” TV with my eyes closed — listening only!

Beyond any science, I can tell you from personal experience that blue light glasses have made an exponential difference to me in managing my dry eyes. Gone are the days of painful eyestrain. And on the rare occasions I don’t wear them, I start feeling eye strain after about an hour of screen time.

Cut to a year later, when Peepers reached out to me about their product, and I thought back to how much I loved the look of them on Oprah. I took a closer look at their website and realized they were SO many styles in SO many sizes and helpful tools to find the right match for me.

Voila! I then got 15 frame recommendations specifically for me. Then, I opened tabs for the frames that looked smaller and actually compared the measurements to the glasses I currently own and like. I also took a quick look at the reviews for pictures of the frames on real people (something I always do when shopping). I selected my two favorites and was done, just like that!

And for the record, Peepers are super cost-effective at around ~$25 a pair. I find this price to be especially good considering all the detailed features you get for the price (anti-reflective coating, UV protection, anti-scratch, etc.). While I also like my Warby Parker blue light glasses, I paid a lot more for them.

And if you shop Peepers website on a mobile device, there are options to click to try frames on virtually using your mobile camera!

Below is where to look for these guides on the Peepers website:

These tools are so incredibly helpful in shopping for eyewear online! I have been happy with every pair I have purchased. (More about recommended styles below…)

In person, I found my Peepers to be as chic as Oprah’s, well constructed and nice and snug on my face. I have worn them all day, every day since! I’ve worn glasses since childhood and this is the first time I felt “cool” wearing them. The colors and styles are such standouts. And they come with a case, which is always nice. I do wish they came with a cleaning cloth, but you can buy their cleaning cloth kit for just a few dollars.

One thing I ended up really liking in person was the spring hinges, which allows them to really bend both ways at the hinge. I also later learned of the anti-scratch coating, which is definitely helpful in maintaining my Peepers for the long run.

I also wanted to note that Peepers is a 4th generation family-run company, and 10% of proceeds from Peepers Frame of the Month is donated to The Unity Fund for Peepers for Teachers. (I am a frequent donor to teachers, giving books, money and supplies, so I really, really liked this charitable cause.)

Now that you’ve read all about my Peepers blue light filtering glasses review, let’s talk more about styles so you can pick one that’s right for you.

My Favorite Styles of Peepers Blue Light Filtering Glasses

I have personally tried several styles of Peepers blue light filtering glasses. (I love to keep one pair in each room!) I gravitate toward the “soft square” shape with thicker frames and more neutral colors, in a smaller overall size for my fairly petite face. Below are my personal favorites:

• Lois (top left) in brown tortoise (my personal favorite) for the thick “Oprah” look in a smaller size for more petite faces
• Layover (top right) in black/taupe for a mod 1960s look
• Venice (bottom left) in tan for that trendy clear look that’s really “in” right now
• Clark (bottom right) in gray tortoise for a petite style that still really pop

No-Fail Buying Tip: If you still feel really stuck on what style is best for you, try the Simply Focus, which is Peepers universally flattering style for any face. It comes in five colors: clear, tortoise, black, red and blue. And you can choose whether or not to get reading correction on a scale of none to +3.00. At the time of posting, this style has nearly all five-star reviews on Peepers website.
