Could the same effect be achieved in software for computer displays?

  As far as I am aware, this is not possible. Computer displays work by sending light in a few wavelengths (but in different intensities), using the combinations of different frequencies to produce the same effects as single frequencies. This product seems to work by aggressively filtering out the parts of the spectrum that cause problems. This would not be possible with normal screens, because the light is of a (mostly) fixed wavelength. These glasses would be much better with objects (for example) illuminated by the sun.

    Similarly, I think these would work much better with incandescent lighting vs flourescent or LED.

  I don't think so, but I think if you could shift the wavelength of the red and green pixels(this would require altered manufacturing process I believe) you could make a colour blind friendly monitor.

  The color filters on the display screen are fixed, so the best one can do in software is to enhance the colors (e.g., skew the image towards significant red so that a person whose eyes are less sensitive to reds can see it a bit better). It may be possible though to have the same filters that are on the sunglasses put on the screen instead. This can work only for displays with low color gamut though.
