I had never thought about it before, but game designers put so much effort into perfecting the color and rendering of games. I wonder if they take blue-blocking glasses into account.

I'm imagining gamers spending thousands of dollars on the perfect colour reproducing monitor, only to then change the colour with blue-blockers.

Why would that be so strange? It might be that they want a high performing monitor with high refresh rates and good color production, but don't want the monitors blue light impacting their sleep late at night, so they wear the glasses at night knowing it will reduce the quality of what they see.

You are aware that the original post was about how blue-light blocking glasses are scam, right?

		Yes, but my response to you was in relation to your comment. That I don't think it would be unreasonable for someone to spend a lot of money on a good monitor and still use glasses at night that might alter the color of said monitor if they thought it benefited their health. Afterall, there has been enormous evidence saying they did benefit you, it's only now its coming to light it might have been poor science. Furthermore, yes monitor companies do develop monitors with blue light in mind, for example Asus has a low blue light filter certification on some of its monitors which is independently certified by TUV, of which TUV claims can help reduce sleep disruptions due to blue light. Based on this doco, that claim is also debunked.
