    I got my reloptix lenses yesterday and as a legally blind person (20/200 with correction) with glasses too thick to wear in VR and it is amazing. I have very strong prisms (9 BO on both sides) and the reloptix lenses only went up to 5 but I got the 5s and they still work great. Everything looks so clear and realistic. Really life-changing if you wear strong glasses.

      Hey there .I've been playing with a quest 2 for the past week Amazing experience, but like you struggling with some aspects of the headset, notably using environment dialogs and seeing some game menu/dialog text. Did your lenses make a substantial difference in either of these aspects? My vision is 20/400. Also, how much did the lenses cost you? Thanks!

    Based on this excellent review, I ordered the Reloptix lenses. It took a month to arrive to Australia from the US but I couldn't be happier. It completely changes my experience of the Quest 2. I used to spend 30 seconds adjusting the device over my glasses and still it wasn't comfortable. It was a bit of a turn off. Now I just pop the VR headset (I do have to remember to remove my glasses 😄), secure the Elite strap and everything is much more comfortable. The magnetic system is very handy as I share the headset with my son so it's really easy to remove and put back on. Thanks again!!!

    Great Comparison! Very well done! We’re glad our industry has great companies to choose from with accuracy and great quality! Any one of these companies will do right by anyone. This is the way! Reloptix is upon our next chapter in service, Due to high demand we are a few weeks away from unlocking 2 new satellite labs (California & Missouri) which will reduce our turn around by 80 - 90%! We support all these companies and wish everyone the best virtual experience possible! Thanks again!

    Thanks for the great comparison! Very fair, concise and informative, really helpful. I currently use a large 3rd party spacer to accommodate my chunky glasses but it's far from ideal so prescription lenses look like the way to go.
    Looks like any of these would be a decent choice, but I think reloptix is the winner here. I also do share my headset from time to time so the magnetic style will be handy.

    Just received my Wave VR lenses today. Wow! They are great. I can finally use my Quest 2 without my glasses getting in the way. They were delivered in exactly a week. I paid extra for faster shipping. With all of the extras and after a $5 discount, I paid $122. I don't have an issue with my nose because the bride of my nose is smaller than yours. I am so glad I gave them a try. I was concerned the prescription wouldn't be correct but it's perfect. Thanks for your review because that is what convinced me to give them a try.

      I have the vr wave as well. I don’t have the issues that dr eye guy has either. They work perfectly for me and don’t touch my nose at all. I even took out the glasses spacer that I had been using with glasses. Maybe I have a smaller nose bridge I suppose. These are a game changer for me though, I’ve been using my quest 2 much longer and more often than I used to. With glasses I could only go about 30-45 minutes before it started hurting too much. I can go as long as I want now though. Also, with glasses on, everywhere but in the center was a little blurry and had rainbows (I beeline chromatic aberration) I don’t have the problem at all anymore with the vr wave inserts.

I did exclude the exclude the extra charge for the blue light filter since I don't expect to be spending nearly time doing VR as staring at my work computer, iPhone, etc., and your opinion that it may not warrant the extra cost if not already included.

I also have VR Lens Lab inserts in my Valve Index and Reverb G2, for the Reverb G2, I find the plastic housing to be thicker than it needs to be, I actually took the lenses out and sanded down the housings so the inserts didn't rub just above my eye lids. I had tried the blue blocker coating years ago (2017 OG Vive) and noticed in VR everything had a very slight blue tint, to be honest, I didn't notice any benefit regarding eye strain or eye fatigue with the coating so I never included it in future insert purchases.

    First of all, excellent video! Just what I was looking for. Just one question, is there a way to determine which lenses sit furthest away from your eyes? Or another way to put it, which ones sit closest to the quest's lenses. I've heard some people have problems with their eyelashes (Sometimes their eyeballs!?!) touching the prescription lenses because they stick out further. I can see how maybe the magnetic ones might stick out further, but which ones would you say sit closer to the lenses?

      I have the Quest2 and have VR Wave lenses. I definitely experience the painful nose pinching issue (IPD setting 2). VR Wave released an extra spacer for the Oculus2 that you can buy to put on your headset to help ameliorate the pinching issue by increasing the distance of your face from the lenses; it does help but it does not resolve the issue for me. The VR Wave lens quality & ease of use is great, as Dr. EyeGuy says, but because of the pinching issue, I am now in the market for new lenses. I’m still super grateful to companies like VR Wave for making quality lenses that make it possible to play VR without your glasses.

    Great to learn of these lenses. I'm legally blind, and wondering if there's a lens which will actually magnify what's being seen in VR. I can't read a lot of the tiny text in menus. I know magnification will reduce field of view, but then, due to coloboma, in both eyes, I don't have much field of view, anyway.. I know my bifocal definitely won't focus, as it's going through yet another lens, the one that's on the OQ2. Just wondering if a modified prescription would work. Thanks for the video.

    I'm a contact lens wearer, and spending considerable amount of time adjusting - readjusting the quest 2. When I'm in VR my vision is okay but when I look right, left or up and down (not straight) then my vision does feel a little blurry or foggy. So you think by purchasing lenses will help eliminate this issue? If so which one of the products that you have reviewed will be most effective?

    • @DrEyeGuy
      @DrEyeGuy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you have that blurry vision in real life when looking in different directions? The only thing I would be worried about is the blur coming from the peripheral blur of the VR lenses. If it's that, then VR prescription lenses would not help with that.

      @@DrEyeGuy Thanks for your reply. In real life I can see fine when looking in other directions. The blur vision (the extent is not huge but its not perfect either). When I do finally manage to adjust the elite strap with vr cover facial interface it does get better but I'm wasting lots of time. Adjusting and re-adjusting. Also my work requires me to use a computer screen for at least 8 hours a day plus I use mobile screen and pc on top of that. Any suggestions are welcome.

    Just got RX lenses for my VR headset, and while the image is now crisp and sharp, I was not prepared for how much FOV I would lose by increasing the space between my eyes and the lenses to accommodate the inserts. My FOV is now a noticeable circle, like looking through binoculars, and some UI elements I placed around the edges are now hidden.
    My correction is not strong, but does have a stigmatism in one eye. For now, I think I will be going back to using no correction at all and deal with the slight blurriness in favor of a wider FOV.

    I have, I think is an important question(s). I have 2 Oculus Quest 2 VR headsets and I do share with my child and wife (who both wear prescription glasses. I do not. I'm not sure of the wording, so bear with me please. I'm not a fan of the original eye pieces that come stock in the Oculus Quest 2. It has some kind of prism lines that you adjust until your eyes focus. I tried another VR headset from my nephew, where his headset allowed people to adjust to their specific measurements and even made prescription lens ability (assuming you knew your prescription stuff). Very neat in my opinion.
    I guess what I want to know is.....can I replace the prism stock with clear ones? I know Oculus did this for making the headset cheaper, but I'm willing to pay extra to see more clearly, no matter the placement I have the Oculus Quest 2 with my face & also have the ability to use prescription later on, which you already explained works well with the push-on inserts. Thanks in advance for any insights.
