Check out this software. Depending on the time of day, it changes the screen's color "temperature".

Gunnar looks solid. The cheapest ones on their website goes for 80 euro, but it seems worth investing.
Have seen this software before, not sure how different color tone helps to deal with eyestrain, but will give a try, cheers
Does anyone knows other reputable brands to choose from?

I wear Gunnars, have been now for awhile. I like them but at the end of the day you should still follow the 20 20 20 rule:
Every 20 minutes focus on something 20 feet (~6 meters) away for 20 seconds
Every 20 minutes focus on something 20 feet (~6 meters) away for 20 seconds

Hopefully will find their store in London, would like to try out some of them before buying. These ones looks similar to old wayfarers, class!

Also have Flux installed on your system, it makes a big difference, at least for me

I recall I've tried that flux sw on iphone/ipad, but to be honest with you change in color looked weird. I'll see how it work out on PC
It will look weird for the first 2-3 days, but then you will stop noticing it. Do the eyes feel dry or do they just hurt? If dry - buy eye drops.

Eyes hurt and it becomes more difficult to focus while working. Is anyone working on Apple Retina or 2K monitor? I'm currently still on my 1366x768, so might consider upgrading later on if higher res. is much easier to work with

Just what tonib said, it will look weird the 1st week or something, same thing happened with me.
That "orange" color that changes your usually bright "white" one looks freaky at first lol, but yet after 4 years I can't live without it.
Especially if you work during the night on pc, it will help you tremendously!

That's the whole point of that software.
You can try also by lowering you brightness to minimum, but I prefer flux with orange color
