EyePro

Nowadays, we tend to spend a lot of time in front of our computer screens late at night, and the bright light emitted by the monitor can cause eye strain, no to mention make it more difficult to go to sleep when you finally turn off your PC.

EyePro is a nifty application that provides a solution, in the form of a simple filter that reduces the amount of blue light coming from your screen. The filter can be adjusted manually, but the program is also capable of managing it automatically.

EyePro is very easy to use, as it can perform the necessary adjustments automatically, based on the time of day. Late at night, the application increases the strength of the filter, and the change is gradual enough not to be noticeable.

However, it is also possible to control the filter manually, either by bringing up the main application window or with the help of the optional desktop widget.

The program can display fatigue reminders, although it does not allow you to customize them in any way.

Sadly, while EyePro is certainly a useful application, and novices, in particular, should appreciate its straightforward design, it does not offer a lot of customization options.

For instance, the filter’s color range cannot be modified, and you cannot create separate profiles for watching movies or playing games, which is when better color fidelity is required.

EyePro is fairly unobtrusive, as you can just minimize it to the system tray and let it control the filter automatically, and the desktop widget can be disabled at any tine.

The user interface is not exactly eye-catching, but it has a simple layout and is very novice-friendly.

Overall, EyePro is a lightweight application that can protect your eyes if you spend a lot of time in front of your computer screen late at night. It does not offer a lot of features, but it is unobtrusive and easy to configure.
