GUNNAR Gaming and Computer Eyewear /Vayper, Amber Tint - Patented Lens, Reduce Digital Eye Strain, Block 65% of Harmful Blue Light

I got these a few months ago. As much as I want to love them, I can't really say I would buy them again.The tint is really good at keeping the screen glare from tiring your eyes. They have a slight magnification that helps with details, but nothing miraculous about it.Someone said in another review that these are not for people with 20/20 vision, and I agree. I had my vision checked because I was having trouble reading my phone's screen (and any printed text for that matter) when I held it close to my face (at a normal, average distance, mind you). I had to pull the phone away more than usual to be able to clearly read, and that got me scared. I had my eyes examined in July 2015, and the doctor told me that my vision is still perfect (I'm 33 years old), and the reason I was having trouble reading was that my vision was getting too tired from working with computers all day and then at my personal computer at night. He recommended UV protection glasses, but I didn't want to spend 300$ on non-prescription glasses.I previously had the  Call of Duty Black Ops II Gaming Eyewear - Xbox 360  and those were GREAT, except for two really big caveats: I could see my own eyes' reflection, which was really distracting, and the lens got covered in some tiny dots that looked like hard water marks, which had an impact on the clarity.Having that said, I decided to try the much more expensive Gunnars, so I picked these, based on style and reviews/rating.As long as I'm using my computer while wearing these, my eyes feel fine and I can see perfectly. They are lightweight and very comfortable, even when wearing my  Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones The problem with these is when I have to look at something farther away than my computer screen. It took me a few weeks to realize that my eyes strain a lot when looking beyond my computer screen. The farther away I look, the more my eyes need to strain to focus. Sure, they are gaming glasses and not meant for fashion or looking elsewhere other than your computer or TV screen, but it's annoying having to take them off to talk to someone at the next cubicle. This did not happen with the CoD BO2 eyeglasses.To wrap it up:The Good:-These provide great protection from the UV glare that comes from your computer or TV screens-Lightweight and headphone friendly.-Very comfortable. I can use them for several hours at a time.-Slight magnification helps see details slightly better.-You won't see the reflection of your own eyes, like you do on other eyeglasses.The Bad:-Pricey-Need to take them off to look at anything farther away from your computer or TV screen, if you don't want to unnecessarily strain your eyes.Verdict:-They get the job done, but considering the price, I honestly recommend either the Call of Duty Black OPS 2 gaming eyewear (though keep in mind many users, including myself, would see our own eyes' reflection under certain lighting conditions) or any other brand. There are some out there that sell for much less and have decent reviews.

These glasses are a must buy if you have to look at computer screens a lot. my eyes never feel strained even after coding for 8 hours straight. The glasses are light weight and cover a good portion of your eyes so the frame is barely visible or noticeable. They are so comfortable and light weight that I don't even notice that i have them on. They are also really great for gaming ! They fit really well with headphones on and do not cause any discomfort whatsoever. my only complaint is that the lenses smudge really easily and i have to clean them at least once a week however they do not scratch easily. I've been using these for 3 months now and i have not spotted a single scratch. The best feature of these glasses is that it saved my eyesight ! before buying these i had blurry vision and could not see more than 6 meters in front of me but after using these the blurryness subsided and i could easily read road signs again. The glasses do have a slight magnification to them which can throw you off at first but you'll get used to it.Pros:light weightLarge lensesReduces eye strainHas a slight magnificationStylishConsSmudges easilyThe frame feels like it could bend or break easily since its so thin

I work in front of a computer for 10+ hours a day and these glasses really, REALLY help relieve eye strain. No more squinting, burning eyes, and headaches after a long day in front of the computer. They were totally worth the investment. They are super light and can be worn for 10+ hours comfortably. They also fit my face perfectly. I have a narrow face so it's hard to find glasses that fit without looking too big. I was wary of ordering these online without trying them on first, but they fit perfectly. That said, however, if you have a wide face you might think these are a little small.

These are great for my husband when he remember to wear them. We are gamerS in this house and he gets headaches that turn into migraines so we needed some preventative measures in place. These help him to enjoy what he is doing for longer without the pain. Now I can talk him into playing Crusader Kings 2 with me more now! MUHAHAHAHAHA!

This was a gift for my brother, and he is thrilled with with glasses, clarity is perfect.

I tried the vaypers and loved the clarity, but they looked abismal on me....So I returned them and bought another pair of Phantoms.

Was hesitant to buy these but after wearing them I am amazed at how much they clear up the picture and help me focus more while gaming. Also I'm going into programming and I'm sure they will be nice during long hours at a computer as well.

im happy don't have pay the full price for that (24$ used) cause i don't use this glass a lot. i mean , i don't see the benefice of it. 801$ or more not justified !

Bought this brand on recommendation of JayZTwo Cents.I used to be a regular glasses wearer (thanks laser surgery) so knew how glasses should fit and feel on the face.My first thoughts and impressions were:a) feels light, almost too light. You barely feel as if its there which can be a plus and negative. On the plus its means extended wearing is unlikely to fatigue you. On the negative it feels as if its going to fall off your face any moment.b) The arms feel as if they go too high on the glasses, i find myself pushing them down on my ears every now and then to ensure that they are snug.c) I use them in my home office which has 2700k lighting, this makes my monitor look a bit too yellowed out. in a room with 3000k or above it may work better, your mileage may vary.d) the lens have a slight magnifying effect, i knew this prior to buying these but it does take some getting used to.Other than a decent pair of monitor glasses, takes some getting used to but decent.

I don't know how to tell you how amazing these glasses are. I tried both MLG Phantom (in photos on right) and Vayper Onyx (in photos on left).It took me months of pondering about getting them or not.I even tried to contact Gunnar UK which is managed by Kondor .co.uk (Rob.Bryant)After 5+ emails and 3 phone calls over a period of a few months - Rob NEVER got back to me ever.So I called the Gunnar USA HQ and they said I need to wait for them to get their stuff together. Well I waited months and still zip from Rob.Anyway I eventually bought these things anyway only because I trust Amazon to take them back if they are rubbish.Immediately I was blown away by how great the glasses are!1: The yellow tint, actually works and does reduce blue light and eye strain. And your mind compensates for the very slight yellow tint and basically things just seem normal - that is until you take them off and the world seems a dull grey. This tint can be a bit addictive and should come with a warning to never take them off in-case of depression. It makes everything just POP with amazing brightness.2: The slight increase (0.5) in magnification is actually very cool. It just boosts the clarity that little bit. In fact anyone that doesn't have perfect near sighted vision will enjoy these a little more because you will see like you have never seen before :) [aka anyone starting their 40+ near sight compulsory degradation]3: Dry eyes - well I have very bad dry eyes. In fact I put in drops once an hour. With these on, it reduces air flow and reduces dry eye problems quite a lot. So that is a bonus indeed.4: Style is quite cool and I picked the MLG Phantom over the Vayper Onyx. See attached images for comparison. MLG is on the right.At the end of the day. I really thought this might just be a gimmick but I am just sold on these and probably couldn't live without them anymore.* Top tip for Gunnar USA - Show your glasses on real people - so we can judge the size of these things. Use the same models wearing a variety of glasses. Then we will have a better idea on which ones to buy as buying over the internet is pretty hard when it comes to glasses!

The glasses frame is nice and light weight but the arms that sit on your ears are big and hard so it is not possible to wear them with headphones. Very painful to wear.

Top quality optics and build quality to match and they really do help with eye strain over a long periods. Stairing at a 27inch monitor for 8+ hours 5 days a week really takes its toll but these have helped reduce redness and tired feelings on an evening. Will certainly buy another pair if these these ever break.

use all the time, helped so much with constant computer work
