These Clark Kent glasses will keep you connected to all your devices

Prolonged exposure to the screens can be dangerous for our eyes. Subjecting them to the blue light waves from our TVs, screens, and computers can cause eye fatigue, blurred vision, and other nasty effects.

Of course, knowing all this doesn't help when we spend most of our days making calls on our phones, sending Slack messages on our computers, or even just watching old episodes of The Office on Netflix. Luckily, this new bespectacled Kickstarter project aims to reduce your screen time and the harm that it can cause without disconnecting you from your devices.

Waves Glasses are a brand new pair of glasses that are both ocular and device-friendly. As glasses, they lower the effect of screen lights on your eyes and can transition to protect them from UV rays. They can also fit any prescription lenses so that anyone can use them. But as a tech tool, they can do so much more.

Waves can connect to any of your bluetooth-enabled devices for a hands-free experience when you're on the go. By tapping on the side of your glasses (think Cyclops from X-Men without the laser eyes), you can answer calls, skip through your playlist, or even ask Siri to cover something for you, all without ever touching your devices.

The secret to the glasses' listening capabilities is their bone conduction technology, which transmits audio through your skull instead of through your ears. It sounds pretty sci-fi, but it sure beats sticking headphones in or around your ears and lets you keep track of the sounds in your surroundings.
