Prescription Lens Inserts

Littlenose · 16 Oct 2023 at 10:27

I've found that I need lens inserts for my VR headset.

Has anyone had good or bad expereiences with these, and are there any things to watch out for?

In my case, I'm looking at he Varjo Aero, which has a focal length of 1.2m, which as I understand it is further than "ADD Near", but not "Far"... so I'm strugglign to know what to request.

i have some arriving in a few days from............ actually i cant name here! chinese rain forest!.............. they were only £25 inc tax, or £20 for new customers.

i will be posting back how good (or bad) they are. this is for a quest pro, but i know they sell ones for others as well.

I'm looking forward to the feedback once you've tried them.
Does the prescription include astigmatism etc?

i didnt look into if i could get that sort of thing. i just needed a fairly simple pair of -3.5

edit and they are here..... i will test as soon as i can but am working today
edit ok i am weak.

i have attached some pics. literally a 2 min test, over all dead happy , they push in easily but equally easy to remove, so if i want to play in contact lenses i can.

effect on FOV is slight (way better than using glasses), there is maybe a little more glare than before but (in my 2 min test so do not take as gospel) not a huge issue.

all in all £25 well spent
