⚡⚡ Question of the Day! : Have you tried the Gunnar Glasses or other gaming glasses? Any other glasses you would like me to review?
how are you supposed to "respond" to answers?
i am pretty sure you understand what i meant. if you like being a smartass, don't expect answers from anyone.
@@jfdc8432 Hey Julia! I try really hard to answer as many questions as I can. What questions do you have for me today?
@@benedictly1571 haha...i get it
@@DoctorEyeHealth great job Doctor! i always learn something from your videos.
I have had such a hard time trying to find computer/gaming glasses that have around +0.25 magnification. You have literally answered that in the 3 minutes...as compared to my 2-3 hours of looking at different glasses and their specs. Thanks a ton!
Got a pair of these for Christmas last year and as an avid gamer and computer science student i love them! I've noticed a massive reduction in frequency and severity of headaches. Anyone that uses a computer or related tech product on a regular basis i suggest getting a pair.
My nephew introduced me to Gunnars several years ago... I borrowed and liked his so bought myself a pair. Later I purchases another with my prescription. I didn't realize how much blue light they blocked until this year when I got new regular glasses. I'm having all the pain you mentioned early in the video, dry eyes, and so I am considering purchasing another pair of Gunnars with my new prescription. When I asked my eye doctor, he had never heard of Gunnars,
Just bought some gunner gaming glasses and really like the.. also thanks for the detailed information about this brand which I did notice once I put them on. Cheers and keep up the good work your doing.
just got mine today, 3 hours on and noticed more than just blue blocking. Everything seems to be a bit more clear
Dnangel also makes your crosshair bigger(if you’re playing a fps game)
Gaming Cuber do u see the colors a lil different?
WayneFN yes, it’s supposed to do that my friend! I like mine
what you think about it after a year is it good for work environment?
Facts I got them on rite now
Thank you so much for the info. You have a new subscriber.
Awesome, thank you!
I have an odd question, but a fairly applicable one :)
You have a great mix of skills here, your professional skills and knowledge, but also a clear knowledge of filming, production quality, lighting, and you play videogames.
Do you have recommendations, glasses wise or gear wise, for folks who record and stream with facecam and/or face reading detection for avitar rigs?
I mainly ask becuase some of the lighting set ups for this sort of thing can turn a pair of glasses into a little disco-ball of glare. And also because streamers usually broadcast for quite a long time while dealing with the screen's blue light and the bright light of their set up.
Have you seen the victory series glasses? They are a little more expensive and I'm wondering what the difference is.
Hi Doc!
Can you make a video about thin vs thick lenses? I’m nearsighted & my prescription is on the stronger side. I don’t care about my glasses being thick and sticking out of the frame. However, I don’t like how my head/eyes look(s) significantly smaller behind my glasses. I wanted to know if that was just a downside of my strong prescription, or if paying for thinner lenses would solve this problem.
Hi Malika! I'm Mark! I do not work with Dr. Allen or his practice but am a practicing Optician for 25 years now. If your prescription is of the higher variety you should definitely purchase thinner lenses. Anything in the -1.00 to -3.00 range Polycarbonate is sufficient (it's not my favorite due to clarity issues but it's thinner and lighter) If you can spare the extra $$ I would opt for Hi Index 1.67 lenses. They are very thin and light weight. Not as impact resistant but still safe for drilling through the lenses if you like rimless glasses. On high minus lenses the image on the backside of the lens may seem skewed or smaller. This is normal but can be reduced the following ways. Make sure the frame is a good fit. By "good fit" I mean make sure your eyes are in the geometric center of the lens. People often times purchase frames that are too big for them and this creates that image you don't like seeing, also making the lens edge thicker. The 2nd thing is purchasing the right lens material for your Rx. Listen to your optician! Most times they're not on commission and are sales driven. They're there to work with the Dr to help you see better and feel better about wearing your glasses. I hope this helps.
Are all of their glasses good or is that the only good one? Please awenser me I’m forward to buying on of these
Hello Doc, thanks for letting us know these amazing glasses! I'm gonna try them, do you think the Gunnar glasses are also good for mobile gaming? Or the distance is too short for them to work well? Thanks!
I have a prescription glasses with anti-glare and blue light blocking coating and its better for when I'm gaming on my TV, but I like my Gunnar gaming/computer glasses better when I work, it's just been a whole lot better on my eye strain.
So it's a prism+filter. That's quite interesting. I've been using prism glasses for years, for reading, gaming, etc., without any filters. It really helps a lot with eye strain. But it has a drawback: you need to sit close to your monitors. If you lean back for more than a meter, they distort the view and become useless.
I'm shocked these are that complicated! I always thought they were on the verge of gimmick. I'm sure gunner knows everything you mentioned considering they built the glasses, but I've never seen them explain them as well as you did here. The should hire you for consulting work!
thank you so much for your kind words!
hii,, what's the differences between gaming glasses vs computer glasses ?
thank you. what to do if I already wear pair of glasses to see?
Thanks Doc!
Brilliant Review !
Doctor, do you think that longer height glasses (the vertical length of the tinted glass itself) are better than shorter ones? The shorter ones may look cooler imo, but the longer ones have better usability and let you look down on things magnified
Another thing I do towards the end of the day is put on an audio only media, a podcast, spotify or audiobook. I put down my phone and have it hooked up to a speaker. That way I'm not looking at a screen but I still get a form of entertainment. (Or I just read lol.)
Thanks for the review. Getting for sure
Go with the Oakley Holbrook Prizm gaming glasses, they are 100% better than these.
Aside from using these in front of digital screens, would this specific pair also be beneficial for just working inside a strongly lit environment? My work has intense fluorescent lighting and digital screens around
I've been using Gunnar glasses now for 6+ years and love them. I wear them nearly all day long as I'm on the computer all day for work and then game at night. It's gotten to the point that if I don't wear them and watch TV or do something on the computer, my eyes start to hurt and sometimes get a headache.
Oh wow...I hope you haven't really become reliant on them
@@DoctorEyeHealth When I'm watching TV or working on my computer/laptop, I'm for sure reliant on them. My eyes feel so much better and I don't get headaches and migraines as much anymore.
The original reason of me wearing them was because of the headaches and migraines. I did some research and found the Gunnar glasses and read some testimonials and figured I would try them.
@@Garciavegas01gunnar gaming galsses really worth it? it has any power? or without power. i have eye pain and headche still iam wearing a blue light blocking galsses from the brand zeiss i need to buy good blue light blocking galsses is gunnar gaming glass is good?
@@Garciavegas01really worth it? iam planning to buy a blue light blocking glasses gunnar is best? iam already using a blue light blocking glasses from the brand zeiss but still i experience eye pain and headache
I need a pair of these glasses.
Can you please make a Review about the Hyper X Gaming Glasses!!
I was thinking about getting those but I'm not sure if it's worth it.
Thanks for this review, it was extremely helpful. I’ve been on the fence for quite a while. I do have a somewhat related question: I have noticed that i have more difficulty focusing on rapidly moving objects now that I’m in my mid 30s, and I had PRK around 26 - is there any possibility than PRK surgery could cause this or is it more likely a symptom of eye fatigue? I spend 8-12 hours a day in front of a screen a majority of days.
Lol, i have the same problem until i started wearing glasses,did you find any way to resolve this?
Unfortunately no. I think it is a combo of the surgery and aging.
I see, the thing is that this problem started for me when i first wore the first glasses prescription and i was 26 years old, i don t think i was that old to have this problem.
I have 2 amber lensed glasses and they are great. Was wondering about the amber max version.
I got the amber max, its quite good. When I first wore them, I thought my surroundings would be dark but surprisingly it wasn't at all.
@@xXSummonNightXx oh, you have amber max ??? I intend to buy it but I don't like the frame. Are they can change the frame for me ???
I have a question. My eyes are really dry, and i'm trying to blink manually to get my eyes lubricated, but it just gives me a bad head ache. I suffer from a condition called hyper hidrosis, which means excessive sweating. I'm constantly losing liqiud and minerals due to this, and i thought about the possibility of that being the reason why my eyes are dry. I also use Systane Complete, but i don't think it really works for me. Do you think there could be a connection?
are your eyes getting dry while wearing the glasses ? because i have had this problem as well...
Hello, I am looking for gaming glasses or computer glasses. I am between the ones you have and the razer moba. I cant understand what's the difference between them. Can you tell me which one is better please ? Thanks 👍
Question: is it ok to wear 1x computer glasses on top of my regular corrective contact lenses? Will this hurt my eye sight or cause my eyes to get lazy if I am wearing both for multiple hours each day?
Hi doc, need your opinion so is it better Gunnar or glassy ?
Hi Doc
I feel I am sort of one of those people with 20/20 vision
I am in front of screens a lot, sometimes the phone, laptop or iPad, but often sat playing Xbox on a 32” tv. When I play Xbox I usually sit at least 6ft+ away from the tv.
I am starting to look into the idea of trying to heavily protect my eyes from the near constant use of these screens at different distances. Daily I feel quite tired, and time to time I have the odd headache.
For this type of activity, would I be better with computer glasses (amber?) or some gaming glasses like these gunnars?
I can’t wait to try mine out
Please make a video about astigmatism If it has anything to do with long time on screens
Well to my knowledge...no, there is no connection. refractive Astigmatism is however influenced my many factors, genetics, lid tension, crystalline lens curvature, corneal shape, scarring, etc. Excessive near work, including digital devices, have been linked to increased levels of myopia, however.
Would you recommand buying right after lasik?
talking about the converging aspect of these glasses reminded me to ask, can you do a video on how glasses can affect dyslexia? my last pair were supposed to help but all they did was pull my vision to the left, which is not a good thing for trifocals used for driving as well as reading, the dr i got them from didn't explain how they could help,i just figured it was how it was supposed to work, but i have also wondered a few times if somehow they had made a mistake or something when they were made. but its been 5 years since that prescription & dr .
Really good question. Dyslexia is actually not a vision problem. Its more neurological. The glasses may have been designed to help with your eye alignment. I have heard/read anecdotal reports of vision therapy helping with dyslexia though.
But atleast some people are getting rich from it..
I've been wearing prescription Gunnar glasses for over a decade. I'm a software dev, not a gamer, but they've been amazing, I wouldn't think of wearing anything else.
I’ve been getting headaches just lately while gaming on the console, do gunnar glasses help with that?
Possibly, but it would be best for you to have an eye exam or even a visit to your family physician if you are experiencing new headaches
I would say yes. I wear them for watching tv and computer and iPad and they really help. I think the amber are supposed to be better. I use the amber and can tell you, they are very good. Get a micro fiber because any time you touch them, they need to be wiped.
Low fps gives headaches
G'day Joseph, @doctoreyehealth Yes I use Gunnars for about 5-6 years, as well as Swannies Model X, which are a darker orange lens at night for reading on the ipad before going to bed. Makes a difference. The other thing that made a big difference was changing contact lenses to Safilens Fusion 1 Day Presbyo lenses... a copolymer and hyaluronic acid based contact lens... very comfy.
I have a pair of Gunnar glasses with the yellow lenses that someone gave me back in 2019. The frame is different then yours though it doesn't have the G on the sides. Instead it has Gunnar wrote there instead. I have used then a few times and find them great. But I need to start using them more now that I watched this video. Only problem is wearing them with a headset. After awhile the ear stems hurt your ears being pressed against them by the ear muffs.
Hey Doc . Does Sunglasses work just as well?
Great video Dr. Allen. I have been trying to find a perfect pair of glasses that I can read in (at a laptop distance ) and also enjoy a larger display at 8ft or so. I'm always prescribed a distance Rx (-3.50 /-3.75) with slight Cyl (-.25 and -.75) but I find that this combination causes me not be super comfortable b/c of a defocusing that happens when my eyes become at rest and are not hyper focusing. This has been frustrating for the last couple of pairs I have had made. You point out prism values and possible offsetting of the point of center focus on the lenses in the video and I am now wondering if that is exactly what I need to try. The myopia/astig combination always causes my eyes to "reshift" and refocus while also experiencing a feeling of slight pressure on my right (weaker eye) - and I somehow can never get used to this - it is always a conscious effort and really gets in the way especially when reading. If you or anyone has any experience with something like I describe, please let me know or point me to a resource or 2 :) Thanks!
Ah that is very interesting, has your doctor ever done much for binocular vision testing?
@@DoctorEyeHealth I don’t think so. - I have never heard of that from them - but I will bring it up when I see the doctor actually this upcoming week. What I have done is taken notes on my observations and experience with the last three pairs (that have sph /cyl) vs. the glasses I had done last without any cyl. Things like “focus at rest”, uncomfortable “image shift and realignment I feel my eyes have to do with the newer pairs whenever I place them on properly and pressure/ sight burning sensation on my right (weaker) eye. I actually find having the glasses 5-6mm further out makes perspective more natural but clarity or Rx strength is sacrificed a bit compared to having the lenses right up next to my eyes... if it was one pair I would call it a fluke or lemon but 3 pairs? I can only say that the compensation I need (or am prescribed) is not resulting in comfortable or optimum results even over time.
I have a question . What if I wanna use these glasses for gaming on a TV that's almost 3 meters away ? Will that magnification help me in this case ? considering the fact that they have made the lenses in a way that's the best for looking at a monitor that's just a couple of feet away.
Doctor I see you have the enigma glasses...are the regular ones that usually sold at best buy also have the 2.50 power?
How do you feel about thr Oakley prism gaming vs the Gunnar gaming ?
I spend most of my day in front of a screen , even in school , I spent around 10-11 hours every day looking at a screen , I don’t get headaches or fatigue , however my vision got really bad after around 3 years, I had perfect vision , now I can only read stuff that is within 5 meters , I took a vision test and compared it to a year ago and it was pretty bad
Spending a lot of time doing nearwork has been shown in numerous studies to push the advancement of nearsightedness.
Can you make a video about central serous rentropathy and any cures you might know of?
Do they help your eyes not get eye strain and they also won’t hurt your eyes?
Nicely done video!
Hey thanks mike! Have you ever tried these glasses before?
Doctor Eye Health I actually have not.
Looking for night time driving sunglasses. I live in Wyoming and we don’t have any street lights so the on-coming car lights blind you even more. I was curious if these gaming lenses would help with anti-reflection and the blue light from the LED headlights?
Do you think the prism can be harmful if it doesn't align properly with your eye?
Is phone can cause blindness?
Chrono Trigger!!! NICE!!!
I used to have them. Remember found the magnification annoying. Your really need to consciously "super relax" your eyes, which just gave me more headache.
It's also annoying that you can't just look outside a window or anywhere, without having to take them off. So note taking is a nono. Therefore I bought some regular blue-light glasses, without magnification.
But, I am now considering buying these again. For coding, and also for reduced stress during night, before I go to bed. When your eyes are shutting down, it's best to have some magnification, because otherwise the tension in your eyes could keep you awake longer. 👍🏻
Dude Your Explanation On These Gaming Glasses Was Perfect:P
I Just Bought Some Recently And You Just Made Me Feel Better About Buying Some:3
I've Always Liked To Take Care Of My Eyes When I Can,
& Being Short Sighted Makes Some Gaming Sessions Annoying Being So Far From The Monitor!!!
Are the unisex gaming glasses good or bad bc I'm thinking of getting them.
I think I would be considered a person that has a 20/20 vision.. I spend a lot of time on electronics such as tablets, phones and I'm also a bit of a simmer on my computer lol I wanted to know if this would be a good option for me? And as I said before I currently don't wear glasses. I do have a lot of fatigue in the eyes and a few headaches from time to time. And I'm just looking to alleviate pressure. Because I'm also sensitive to light as well.
I think it is best to first get the eyes check through an exam. Just to be sure. Because if there is uncorrected needs for glasses, that woul dhelp the best. Otherwise, computer glasses and blue light glasses can help with eye fatigue but it is tough to say if it would help or not. Studies show mixed results. I think they feel good when im on the computer a lot.
Thank you
Could that .2 magnification cause damage to your eyes?
I have been wondering if glasses like that would help out to minimize the effect of motion sickness while playing games 🥺
hey doc i just got a new 240hz monitor. since i got it my eyes hurt a lot and my vision is super blurry. it's even hard to read the words that im typing right here. i ordered a pair. do you think it will get rid of this? thanks
Doctor Eye Health hi there I make sure to give my eyes a break from looking at a computer screen or my phone screen or a tv screen but there are times that I feel like no matter what I use that I feel like I have to bend forward to check what I typed or what others have tyed if it's small print
I am interested about this glasses but the small prescripion worries me, I don't need any magnification, will wearing this unwanted magnification damage my vision?
So I am thinking of getting these gaming glasses due to dry eyes but I have a question. Isn't this magnification of 0.25 bad for me since I have perfect eyesight? Like it's spoiling my eyes that the glasses will do the work leading to bad vision in the long run? Or maybe this is completely wrong. Would appreciate your help!
this is what im currently try to answer myself. Any expierience yet?
I found your video because I have the Razer Gunnar FPS Glasses and started wondering if they actually work, do they block blue light? I am not convinced. So I started searching for someone that has tested them and stumbled on your video, figured I would mention my testing.
1) the color wheel test: I did not see nearly any difference in changes to blues, they do add a warmer tint as you mentioned, but the blues stay the same, maybe a touch darker blue, but certainly is not filtering it on this test. Fail.
2) the blue & black square/circle test: the blue square remained 100% the same and did not change at all. Fail.
3) the reflection test: I tested in two ways, first was looking in the mirror with my phone in front of me and in the mirror I see the reflection color between blue and purple, not the best result. Secondly I put the glasses over the palm of my hand and positioned the glasses facing the PC monitor and looked at the reflection which was almost entirely blue, great results. I'd say this test Pass.
4) flashing black to blue boxes: with the glasses on the blue box was 100% clear. Fail.
I reached out to Gunnar and to Razer requesting the report from their spectral analysis they must have completed in order to validate the filtering of the blue & UV lights. Gunnar stated the data is publicly accessible on gunnar.com/pages/technology - - however, that page has zero lab results or test data outside of a bunch of marketing jargon. Razer did not have further information or assistance to offer, other than contact Gunnar. A manager at Gunnar is reaching out to their lab test team to request this report. It will be interesting to see a 3rd party perform the spectral analysis to compare what Gunnar puts out, because in all of my tests, the conclusion was very evident - these glasses are not blocking blue light, maybe a tiny bit in the 5% range, but to claim 65% is something I would bet against.
This comment could be a bit late but i am curious. I just got one and my family forced me to wash them with alcohol before using them and i have been seeing my eyes reflecting on the lense for a while now. I don't know if it was caused by it since i didn't get to try them before but it's really stressing me because i feel like it was caused by the alcohol wash i gave them. It didn't seem like an AR thing came off but it could have ? Do they normally do this ?
I saw an ad for swannies glasses before clicking on this video. Anyone have any thoughts on those? I am 25 and have been an avid gamer and tv watcher and have noticed over the last six months that my eyes are having some issues. I changed the lights on my phones several months ago, but i need a pair that is going to protect my eyes during long binge watching and gaming sessions. There are alot of these glasses out here, and i did not think it was going to be so hard to pick a pair.
Hello,
I have -0.50 myopia in each eye and I only use my glasses to drive at night, go to the cinema etc. I am a graphic designer, so I spend many hours in front of the PC and all the objects I use are very close to my eyes. I also love to read and in these situations I don't feel very comfortable wearing my glasses. But the truth is, wearing or not, at the end of the day, I feel my eyes very tired and I see everything unfocused. So, I would like to know if a computer glasses could help me in this case. As I have myopia, can I use glasses with magnificaction or is it not recommended?
Thanks
i play on a 65" tv at 3 meters distanceyou recommend this or the cyrgnus?
Would you recommend them for VR gaming?
Should I get the 0.2 focus lenses or the no focus ones ?
How do I know what strength of yellow tint I need? I game 7 hours a day, on week ends up to 11 hours. What do u recommend?
I personally am not a fan of the super dark orange glasses. Those may be better if your gaming outside. I personally would not go over the 65 level for myself. What games do you play?
Doctor Eye Health
Thx for letting me know. I mainly play fortnite, but I do like playing in the dark, but since that causes my eyes to hurt a little I have to play with my lights on, do u think that theses glasses will allow me to play in the dark without my eyes hurting?
Alright I'm sold.
Mainly because for work I'm staring at white light for hours with the apps, not for vidya or videos.
Are there clip-on for prescriptions available?
I dont know if the gunnar glasses have that but Im sure you can find some blue blocking clip ons online or maybe through your local optical.
Which exact pair did you buy/recommend?
I have only tried the Sheadog (info in description) But I know they have many styles.
I fly drones using an iPad or sometimes with my iPhone, trouble is in bright sunlight it’s hard to read the screen what type of glasses would help me see the screen better.?
Doc. My gunnar glasses are on the way. But now I have the doubt if I use these lenses for 8 to 12 hours a day there is no risk that my eyes will get used to that magnification of 0.2? I have no problems in sight
did you bought? bro does it affect your eyes?
Can you do new gunner glassess ambermax 98 percent blocking blue lights to see any differences.
Also about five Yeats ago U asked the optician if he could do computer use glasses for me but he done reading glasses for me instead even though I explained to him my monitor was 3 foot away from me. So the glasses weren't of any use to me. I would love a good gaming glasses with blue light blocking on them though.
This is an old video and I am not sure Dr. still have time to response. If you say they are decentered for prism, so when you purchased them do you need to provide your PD?
How did you manage your time in optometry school with gaming? Dr. Maki's and Fortepiani's classes are demanding! Haha
HAHAHA OMG Hows RSO??? It was tough. I basically would study for an hour, then game for 10 minutes and then back to studying. Hope Your first semester went well!
@@DoctorEyeHealth I'll keep that in mind! Haha
Thanks for the tips and congratulations on the success of the channel! I really enjoy them cause they also work as a supplemental material for some classes!
We just got done with the first semester of 2nd year now!! Had to adjust to limited labs and online lectures, but it's been good! Thank you for asking! :)
@@DoctorEyeHealth 10 minutes... That's like a single loading screen on GTA
I have the same ones and they kind of make my monitor look warped when I am wearing them
Is this normal
Well the glasses do have a small magnification power to them, perhaps that is how you perceivethe magnification through your eyes?
Doctor Eye Health i dont wear glasses but i got gamerglasses is that bad for me
Are gamming glasses just as good for computer programmers?
hii Dr. Eye,, what's the differences between gaming glasses vs computer glasses ?
i am in germany, any idea where can i get one of such gaming glasses without tint ?
thx
andrew
Computer glasses have the power specifically set for the computer screen distance. Where gaming glasses typically are not set for the computer distance but only have a slight +0.25 plus magnification. If looking for gaming glasses that are clear. Perhaps talking to your local optician about getting weak plus powered lenses, or getting them set for your normal screen gaming distance.
Hii Doctor Eye, i am glad to receive your explanation. thank you. can you also pls answer this part of question as well, because i am still a bit blurry about this topic. thx
if i can do with gaming glasses in front of screen for hours, why cant i use gaming glasses in replacement of computer glasses for hours in front of computer ? pls enlighten me. thx
u said the computer glass has +0.2plug magnification (i am not sure is the whole glasses or just center of the glasses.
i do know u said in other video that computer glass have the convergent effect, because the screen is wide and flat, and it is straining that the side of the eyes have to control the muscle to focus on the screen at the both outer sides of the monitor screen.
however as for gaming glasses, i suppose they don't have this convergent.. am i right ?
apart from this convergent effect on the glasses, there actually no different between a computer glass and gaming glass, am i right ?
pls correct me if i got some point wrong.
thank you.
appreciate your respond, Doc.

Im interested in buying the Gunnar glasses, but on the website I saw a “proposition 65: cancer and reproductive harm” warning.... but I’m guessing that’s because of the polycarbonate lenses which may contain some BPA. So... I want to know your opinion as a doctor: do you think there is any risk in using these long term?
that warning is on there because of California law, just so you know they put that same warning on coffee in California...
Yea its a California law and they also put that warning on locks lmao
@@AetherlyFox it doesn’t do anything right?
@@scruffyRe yea
@@scruffyRe they put then on everything from locks to books yea anything it's crazy even plants
Wow I had mine for 8 years in a the box. Than I looked at this vid and started using them again. Someone with medical training pushing the product makes me trust it. I thought the magnification was cos it was cheap stuff and after a while would make your eyes goes wonky.
Hi there,I have non prescription (zero diopter)eyes .Is it ok if i wear gunnar glasses with standard +0.2 diopter ?
Hey Doctor Eye Health :) I am wearing prescription glasses +1.75 - +2 with astigmatism and was wandering if buying Gaming or Computer glasses for my everyday only pair of glasses that I wear all the time(Gunnar have prescription options). I was wondering that as I am a software developer but also have very active life and spend as many as possible time outdoors. So is it bad wearing blue light/gaming/computer glasses all day long and using them on the beach, mountains and anything without leaving them during the day? Your answer would be really helpful so I can make my decision for my new every day glasses!!
I'm seeing that they have "Clear lenses" which are 35 BLF which may be a good option
What glasses did he have in the video?
So I have no prescription for my eyes , just got checked today. I use the computer for 8-9 hours a day and by the end of the day I can't focus on anything I have blurred vision and then it gets fixed after a while. I feel the fatigue in my eyes within an hour of working.
So i can't buy gunners in my country can I just go get a 0.25+ glasses with the blue light filter?will it be the same as the gunner glasses?
I contacted Gunnar a few years ago to see if I could get gaming glasses but they don't do them in my prescription.
Also I do spend a lot of time in my computer but I have three alarms on my phone set to remind me to take an hour break every two hours of computer use. In the evening time after 5pm my computer is turned off for the rest of the day. But for many years I would use my computer for the whole day without any break until bed time.
Your computer use reminds me of myself when I was younger :-) I'm sure your local optical can come up with a pair of glasses very similar but in your prescription.
@@DoctorEyeHealth Yup. For the years I used the computer far too long without a break I had some bad computer eye strain and blurred vision. But now that I am taking breaks every two hours I notice my vision is very slowly improving.
Thank u 🙏🙏
Please do Felix gray glasses!
Just a quick question so I have great eyes am not prescribed with glasses would it be unsafe for me to get these glasses or will it not effect my eyes and I’ll be fine?
BamBam Dinero I had the same question I just asked him in his Instagram. If he replies I’ll let you know.
