Tech Boutique has heard of new glasses launched in Japan that will help relieve us girls who stare at computer screens for long periods and suffer from red, strained and painful eyes.

Japanese firm J!NS has revealed Moisture glasses that include "vessels" on each side of the frame to provide a continuous moisture boost to your eyes and stop them becoming dry.

The containers can be filled with water or eye drops, and give enough moisture to keep your eyes refreshed for two hours, according to the manufacturer.

J!NS has also unveiled protective eyewear called Monitor glasses which filter out 55 per cent of the "blue light" emitted by PC displays, a common cause of eye fatigue. The Monitor glasses will be available in October for $50.

Tech Boutique wouldn't describe the glasses as sexy or even fashionable, but hey, they do come in pink, and of course they do protect your eyes.
