About a week ago I ordered my pair of Obsidian Inferno prescription Sleeper glasses and I'm very excited to try them out. I have near-sighted astigmatism so getting prescription blue light glasses seems like a moot point but the overall quality-of-life improvements beyond just looking at screens and gaming are worth it to me. I originally got a plano GUNNAR Intercept pair back in 2017 and the temples squeezed my head and hurt so I had to tilt them upwards to compensate. They lasted me 2 years before I accidentally snapped the frame in half and just gave up. I just found out at the end of March that I have astigmatism so I got my first glasses prescription ever and have been regularly wearing my standard prescription square frame glasses with Transitions since April and a clear-lensed aviator backup pair since June. I'm so excited to finally have prescription gaming glasses for everyday use.
I LOVE my blue-light blocking/anti-reflective glasses - they seem to be very similar to the Gamer Advantage! I didn't know that they could be specifically better for gaming! We spend so much time on screens, and I wear my glasses all the time - these attributes make such a difference to my everyday comfort! Thanks for the analysis Dr Allen!
I had to start wearing glasses a couple years ago. I need the blue light blocking lenses or I don't want to look at screens very long anymore. I never imagined that being an issue. I didn't look at screens all day either. Anyway thanks doc.
I don't have any eyesight issue , but if I try reading or using pc for more than ten minutes , my eyes burn , I start to experience headaches and unbalancing . Even if I try playing video games I experience the same problems . I don't know if those glasses would work for me once I think I am suffering from simulation sickness .
The blue light blocking glasses that I got block the bad light perfectly, my eyes strain easily without them typically begin to blur a bit in the distance, but the glasses protect that a lot. I may need to move onto prescription lenses but other than that. 10/10
Hey Dr. I was looking on their website and noticed they have 2 different lens options. I work and look at a computer for probably 5 hours a day and like to game in the evening. Which lens do you think would be the better choice for me? Looking to purchase using your link shortly. Thanks!
Hey Aiden! If you plan on using your glasses daily at work and for leisure we suggest the sleeper lens. They are made with people like you in mind helping you protect your eyes at the highest level. No color distortion, no yellow lenses so you can see your life and screen in true color making these a great choice for daily use! Thank you for your question!
I actually had really bad migrains with auras that would paralyze my right hand and such, i couldnt think straight understand words or speak properly and the neurolgyst said basically just deal with it and take whatever meds get rid of the headache. I did my own research and looked into what could be the trigger and it ended up being screens. Now i sit in front of a computer screen for probably 16 hours of the day due to my career and hobbies, if I didnt stumble across blue light glasses I dont even know what I would do. Thankfully they did the trick and ive been wearing my gunnars ever since, im down to the 35% lenses they offer which i use at night and my prescription glasses with a blue light filter during the day, though lenscrafters (where I got the lenses) couldn't give me any information at the time as to what in the blue light spectrum they were blocking, early days I guess for blue light? Now theres alot more information and products out there to choose from, but legit if it wasnt for blue light glasses i dont know what I would do; gunnar really did save me
blue light blocking glasses will really help you out with migraines. glad to hear another success story. reducing the number of migraines you get is literally life changing!
@@GamerAdvantage It really is!, thanks so much for the work you guys do really. I am going to keep my eyes on you guys for when you come out with a straight frame for the arms like oakley apparition which are uber comfortable as they cause no temple pressure, happen to be my daily glasses. if u guys come out with them ill definitely purchase a pair!
They 100% help me with eyestrain/headaches/migraines without a doubt I used to get eyestrain every week followed by migraines since using blue light filtering glasses I do not get that anywhere near as much eye strain GONE headaches and migraines rather than weekly about once a month
Just picked up a pair of the rezme sleep type on sale for 40 bucks, seems like a steal for all the features it has. Will be nice to use them when on the computer and before sleeping. Also the fact that they double as sunglasses makes that price even nicer on top of all the other items included in the box. Thanks for the review! As someone that actually got lasik done recently, I weirdly kind of miss glasses, mostly because my face just looks better with them
That's great to hear!!!! I have really liked them. When I first heard of them I was skeptical because of some of the claims on their website but I had to dig into how they make their lenses and no joke, I wear them in the evenings and I feel I fall asleep way faster. If you ever try them, please let me know what you think.
After watching this video and a few others like it I decided to buy this exact pair. I purchased some cheap ones but they are not from a reputable company. Thanks for the video Doctor. You are doing awesome work.
As someone who is looking into blue light glasses, would you pick these over Gunnars? granted I know Gunnar has the yellow tint and not everyone likes that, but if the glasses were the same price, with informed buying power, would these be better then the Gunnars?
Same, I been trying to look for comparison of Gunnars and Gaming advantage, can’t find anything. Specially trying to compare and understand that even if these are clear, do they surpass Gunner’s tinted from protection? Like would there be a “Perfect” Glasses that can be clear and as good as the tinted ones.
Finally an excellent gaming glasses review. I was paticularly looking for some with anti screen glare and this showed a great example of that. Unfortunately the glasses stand doesn't seem to be included anymore :( I was really looking for that. I will still buy these glasses :)
I found that blue light blocking glasses that are tinted amber/dark yellow work for me at preventing aura migraines. That being said, the clear ones I tried that didn't work did not have patented blocking lenses, so I might have to give these a try! 🤓
@@GamerAdvantage I looked at your guy’s glasses, so how much would it be if I have a prescription of -3 in my right eye, plano on the left eye, and astigmatism on both eyes
Super excited to see And prescribe those glasses in our country Ha ha ,Thank you for such helpful videos,btw we are updated earlier by ur informative videos🤩 Namaste Mr.Joseph Allen🙏😁Love from India
I find yellow/orange lenses are better for dusk/dawn. As for blue blockers, they're better on the water or snow. There's no truth that exposure to blue light disrupts your circadian rhythms. It actually has more to do with your screen's refresh rate. If there was an app to reduce the refresh rate as you wind down, you'd probably benefit more than a gimmicky pair of glasses
Your videos are very informative! Thank you!! I am looking for recommendations for the best computer glasses. I stand in front of a computer all day (at exactly the height and distance you recommended) and I am suffering from headaches after having eye surgery and getting optical implants. I see you recommend blue light glasses and gaming glasses but not computer glasses.
Hey Tracy! Our glasses are made for people just like you! Just because they were called "Gaming Glasses" doesn't mean they aren't exactly what you are looking for. We are a company made up of gamers and being a part of that community is why we decided to make glasses for gamers, but we always say "if our glasses are good enough for gamers, they're good enough for everyone" Our glasses help reducing eyestrain and headaches that are associated with being in front of a computer screen for long periods of time! Feel free to check us out, your eyes will thank you!
Eye strain may not be directly related to blue light, there seems to be a lot of anecdotal reports of them helping but all other studies seem to point to no. I personally think some people are just more light sensitive and perhaps they help with photophobia. But, as far as blue light glasses and gaming glasses go, these are the best quality I have seen.
Over sensitivity to the light might also be a thing. Our lenses provide the highest level of blue light protection. If you decide to give our glasses a shot please let us know how they help you!!
One thing to try - Put on some polaroid glasses and then hold your blue light / gaming glasses in front of the screen. I tried this with my Duco plastic glasses that I thought were ok and was horrified at the patchy, stressed and damaged areas on the lense.
Thanks for the review👍🏼 but can you please answer me in short, maybe a 1 to 10 review on more glasses especially the cheaper ones like Zen office and INF. The whole 100+ price is a definite no from me when just made from plastics, and all the logos make it a bit tacky to wear and never mind using them om streams is gonna be a problem
Dr Allen yes bluelight blocking helps me ** I just need to know what the highest quality & highest level of Bluelight blocking Prescription Lenses is ? Also what are the best lenses for Migraines when triggered by light ? Thank you.
I was looking for a gaming glasses on YT, and your video was on the very top. I watched the whole video, and visited the website. I got few questions: Is the name of the featured glasses "Inferno"? Do you suggest me buying the Suppressor or the Sleeper one? (It's for gaming)
My adult son is on his computer all day… work and gaming. He’s an artist and he plays League of Legends and other games. He gets dry eyes and also wears glasses. What’s the best way to protect his eyes if he already wears glasses?
Next time he needs to update his prescription glasses consider us! Our glasses are proven to help him with what he's experiencing and with getting better sleep. With our 45 day sleep satisfaction guarantee there is nothing to lose!
Hi thanks for the review, Which lens type are those? the website has 3 types: REZME Focus, REZME Sleep, REZME Dream and I am not sure if the tint Dream lens is too strong for office work.
Thanks for sharing your Steam library as well. Seems like an avid gamer's repertoire ;) Actually I was surprised that I could not find PUBG there. Aren't you a fan? I'm an addict. Apart from that I'm a myopic so I can not use these generic gaming glasses. But I'm going to order a new pair of glasses? Do you have any tips for myopic people like me to pick up right set of glasses? Would be great if you make a dedicated video about it.
Hey doc, I don’t game but I do spend a lot of time in front of screens and have been looking for blue light blocking glasses. Would these be my best bet or should I keep searching? Thanks
Hello bro , I have a doubt after watching many videos on RU-vid about blue light glasses . I already have Crizal blue light anti glare non prescription glasses . Some creators are saying that using these glasses on day will effect - vly rather than + ve as wearing blue light glasses during day will cut the essential blue light required by the brain and brain will think its night time and will produce less melatonin ultimately a person feeling fatigue and not energetic. But in the brochure of crizal lens i read that they have mentioned that their glasses will block harmful blue light with allowing the essential one so should i wear them during day or not ? Love from india🇮🇳.
Hey Dr. Eye health. Quick question. I bought those glasses. Got them today. Seems like the right lens has progressive glasses. Left lense is spot on. Is it safe to use them even though my right eye does not use progressive glasses normally?
Hey thanks. That sounds odd, I would contact the company and confirm that is correct. A progressive lens on one eye would cause some confusion between the eyes and may cause eye strain and even double vision.
I tried going to a department store ophthalmologist because it was convenient and I ended up getting progressive lenses but the transition area was like walking off a cliff and I constantly bumped my head on walls. Needless to say, I went back to my original provider to get single vision lenses
Do you have any thoughts or opinions on Hyperx gaming glasses? I love their headsets and microphones so I am curious as to if the glasses are as good as the reviews say they are.
I had both GAs and hyper x glasses. I think the HyperXs are more clear but the GAs are lighter and I saw a difference in my sleep faster. But the lenses are yellower than the HyperXs.
The Gamer Advantage Glasses are a far more expensive option when compared to Gunnar. The glasses featured here, the Inferno Obsidian, start at $99. But if you want the full benefit of blue filtering for sleep, it's an extra $30. If you want a minor magnification to reduce eye strain, that will be an additional $35. There's no mention if you do purchase the magnification whether they shift the optical center similar to Gunnar. Not really seeing how these are the best, or even a good value.
Hi Sean, We appreciate your comment, and we value what the community has to say. Just as an FYI there are some things you should know: The starting price of $99 includes our Suppressor lens, which provides full benefits for those who spend less than 8 hours a day on screens. The primary function of this lens is: focus, headache reduction, and reducing eye strain. When it comes to sleep, our customers opt for the Sleeper Lens, which is specifically designed using a proprietary absorption powder that results in increased melatonin production, a significant reduction in migraines/headaches, and improved cognition. Last, but certainly not least, Gamer Advantage does not recommend the use of corrective lenses unless suggested by your doctor. The magnification on our site is actually listed as "readers" which is exactly what that lens is designed for. These readers are for those whose doctor has recommended a plus power for eye comfort when reading up close. Again, we do not recommend a reading power or magnification if your eyes don't require it, and we try and make that as clear as possible on our website by calling them "Readers". If want to learn a little more about what our customers have to say about our product, please visit www.shopperapproved.com/reviews/gameradvantage.com.
They also look less obvious than Gunnar, even adding the sunglasses.More bang for buck if you ask me. If I wanted to wear them in public I could. Gunnars almost look like safety glasses. They even did a Tony Stark edition but they look goofy being a tad larger than the real one -would be cool for GA to do the same thing and actually make them wearable in public 😅
This question is way off the topic of what you put in the video but I'm just gonna ask anyway: Does the Anti-BlueRay glasses from eye glasses store really work( since I have one but wasn't sure about it)?
How are these glasses compared to Gunnars when it comes to the slight 0.25 magnification and the optical center, and would you advice for or against having the magnification and slightly more centered optical center?
We do not recommend the use of corrective lenses unless suggested by your doctor. If you don't need it, the correction/magnification could lead to you developing a dependency to the glasses which could lead to headaches and eye strain. The exact opposite effect we are trying to achieve. Our lenses also differ in being able to see through them in true color. No yellow tint here! See the world and the games you live in the way they were made to be seen.
Recently i got my eye tested with eye specialist and my right eye is -0.50 and left eye is -0.25....the doc advise me a eye drop solution and say that u don't require glasses....but i am concern that if i don't wear glasses my no. Will increase ....what do you suggest?? I just want that my power don't increase overtime....and want to control the power....
I've been considering looking into these, especially once I'm covered for new glasses. I'll need to look into if my prescription could be accomadated tho,, I am extremely nearsighted :( (so much so I'm getting lattice degeneration)
I’m having trouble deciding between the clear (Rezme focus) lens or the slight tint (Rezme sleep) lens… I have a pair I bought off amazon with yellow lenses and I know I do NOT like those
Sometimes it feels like my vision is dim, sometimes after waking up my vision seems to move and sometimes shake. I have dry eyes btw, could you talk ab this?
I want to tries these out because I feel like the yellow tint isn’t for me. I never owned any gaming glasses but I get strained from playing. Do these clear ones do the same as the yellow ones from other brands?
Interesting! Cool looking glasses! Also, pretty nice game collection you got there on steam! 😅😁😎👌🏻 another thing, your name is the same as one of the random dudes you play as in cod mw2 (2009) 😆👍🏻
Doctor could you please answer my question. Sometimes my eyes get so tried which makes me feel that my upper eyelid is heavy, and my head starts aching But when i get a long sleep for 10h it heals , if i get less i get up with the feeling of heaviness then it disappears trough the day. What could it be ?
First order not shipped after 25 days. My second order has been preparing for two weeks now. It's been almost two months now and I haven't received my order! The worst experience ever.
No prism, or slight magnifying effect? I tried ordering from them, lol, but they can't ship a sun clip to me... They can ship everything else, but... not the sunclip... wat... The sunclip is the entire reason i want to order from them to begin with, if they can't ship that, then they can't sell their product to me, lol.
@@DoctorEyeHealth also this video made me buy these because i'm a gamer and i went to the doctors and muy eyesight wasn't exactly good so i wanted to take care of it so thank you for this review
Blocking blue light without bright yellow lens is massive, both for utility and atheistic reasons. That’s much more than a Gamer ‘Advantage’ so I’m surprised they chose this branding.
Whenever I'm playing video games I suffer from motion sickness now maybe I'm a little bit slow but do these glasses cover that.... I will repeat I am a little bit slow. Whenever the camera and games go pass fast I get sick
Do all the things like the stand and the cloth come with it if i buy only the glasses? Because on the website i can select it separately and it costs extra
I wear prescription glasses, can these be use with out prescription? I’m trying find a solution for gaming, I can’t see enemy players have to be close to the tv even w glasses on
Hey doc I have a doubt that haunts me for few months kindly take time to reply me Symptoms; Burning eyes,Large, small,black, translucent,and tons of floaters,dry eyes, static vision, light sensitivity,and pain at times, poor visibility at dark Cause; I played hardcore for 3 days at complete dark at 1000 nits(too high) of mobile brightness in naked eye *-3.50, and I had no eye issues before the incident Is there anything serious?
Hi doctor, i was recently watching your videos about contact lenses and holloween contacts. I was wondering if those holloween contacts are safe for people with eye astigmatism. I have astigmatism in both of my eyes and I just want to make sure they will fit properly. thanks.
