yea it's the cheapest range of lenses though. not sure why is it considered a scam here, maybe only in the western market?

have they not heard of Hoya, etc that charges a bomb even for their typical lenses?

Well, I'm using Xiaomi TS Turok Anti-Blue Light glasses (without power) and I personally feel much better with it.

Bought it around RM70, I'm happy with my purchase.

I think the "scam" part happens when the optometrist overpromise / overglorify (or whatever word you like) the capability of such blue light filter lens to be able to overcharge your sorry ass. It is nothing more than a piece of yellow tinted lens that absorbs / reflects strongly a specific band of blue light. Personally I do feel my eyes are less strained after changing to this pair of blue filter specs. I think it is a good investment for the price.

It is a very subtle yellowish tint but still perceivable.

Sigh. When you got your specs did they do some filtering test or not by shining blue laser on it to see that most light didn't pass through? Or since you claim you bought hai keras lens, did they at least give you a certificate from the lens manufacturer to show authenticity?

How high tech can a piece of clear plastic be?

Just practice good eye habits and you won't need all these gimmicks. Unless you're a coder etc.

Use uv torch to shine on blue light filter and see if can penetrate or not. Mostly opticians add rm100 for anti blue light.

Blue-light filter itself is not exactly a scam in terms of comfort. No, blue light from monitor/handphone screens do not harm your eyes. But a slight yellow tint makes things look a little warmer and more comfortable. So, basically, the price is stupid scam
