Just because you have 20/20 vision doesn't mean that you can't benefit from a good pair of glasses. Sometimes the problem isn't you, but what you're looking at. Consider your monitor, for example: We live in a digital world; of text, graphics and of course video; which means we are staring at bright screens more than ever, and actually blinking less. But are we seeing it all as intended? And are we properly protecting our eyes while doing so?
Enter Gunnar Optiks, with their line of stylish "Digital Performance Eyewear." The head-hugging, wraparound designs are remarkably lightweight, particularly enticing to non-eyeglass-wearers. They can also be ordered directly from Gunnar Optiks with prescription lenses.
The innovations which combine to provide these benefits fall into four key categories, all with catchy trademarked names:
It's all a part of what they call the i-AMP lens technology optical platform, that brings together all of the above for genuine results.
I personally tried the rimless "Bit Surfer" style with Onyx-colored arms and amber lenses, easily adjustable with two quick bends to sit comfortably atop my big honking schnozzola. The benefits were immediate and self-evident. Images really pop, edge detail in particular was enhanced, but naturally so. A slight yellowish tint was introduced but it felt strangely appropriate, and it also seemed to yield colors that appeared more realistic than before. Switching back to my regular eyeglasses, I noted that images now looked flatter, they just seemed to lie there, and colors were suddenly less lifelike. Before long I was hooked, and looking at the world without the Bit Surfers didn't feel quite right. These things really work.
Prices range from $99 to 189 per pair.
