They’re frankly pretty amazing. It’s a case-by-case thing, I’m sure, but I’ve been loving them. My first day wearing them, on my way out after putting them on the first time, I just stood and stared across the street for a bit, there was a tree in front of a brick wall, and I was impressed at how the green of the leaves stood out against the red of the brick. Getting in my car to drive home, I saw some poppies in a front lawn, and wow, they were orange as all get out. Then I came to my first traffic light, where I literally said “whoa, that light is hella green”
I drove straight to my local rose garden and where normally I’ve preferred blue and yellow colors in flowers, now I understood why red flowers are cool, they’re not as hidden as they seemed to me before. I was so impressed by the different shades of green I was seeing and the way red flowers looked against them that I (mostly) ignored the topless photoshoot that was going on at the time.
I’ve since noticed red flowers in trees I’ve seen many times before with no idea they had flowers, and some other neat stuff. In all, they really make the world more colorful. I still find myself waiting at a crosswalk, just looking at the colors and going “whoa” until I go “whoa, I missed my turn to cross, oh well. MAN that light is yellow.”
Oh yeah, the narrowband filtering thing: apparently my turn signal lights on my dash are pretty narrow band, they basically disappear when I’m wearing the glasses.
