Review on GUNNAR Gaming Glasses - Block 65% Blue Light - FPS Razer Edition - Onyx with Amber Tint: Enhanced Eye Protection for Gamers by Mark Hicks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for contact lens wearers

Summary: I've had the Gunnar "Razer RPG/Onyx" glasses for almost a year and still wear them every day at work and at home. The build quality is excellent and I would recommend a pair to target those who wear them, either under experience or trying to prevent eye strain. I still prefer my Gunnars to regular glasses when it comes to eye strain, but there's not a huge difference. 2) The glasses are very comfortable. I've been wearing on-ear headphones for a long time without any problems. After a few hours of wearing, the bridge support leaves small dents on the nose, but these disappear after a few minutes. 3) I am very happy with the build quality. I wear mine every day and they travel in my backpack between work and home. They hardly differ in appearance and function from when I bought them 10 months ago. 4) It will take some time to get used to the yellow lenses and the slight magnification. They didn't like either at first, but you get used to it and become dependent on it. 5) These glasses will not "fix" eye strain, only prevent it (if that makes sense). When I look at a bright computer screen with contact lenses and no glasses, I still experience eyestrain. The glasses only act as a barrier. 6) I don't have any other Gunnar glasses so I can't speak directly to them about the build quality. dim the screen (dark modes are cool) and keep your contacts fresh (e.g. replace them when needed, don't sleep in them all the time, etc.). I hope someone finds this useful and good. Good luck with your search!
