Using glasses with the Rift
« on: July 10, 2016, 09:41:32 am »
I wear glasses, and it always takes me a couple of adjustments to get the vision right while wearing my Rift. Also, I haven't found a position yet that doesn't push my glasses into my face. Anyone have good luck wearing glasses with their headset that has some good tips? Has anyone tried the insertable lenses?

I don't wear glasses so I can't really speak to this much. But, I have demo'ed VR to a couple people with glasses and most preferred to not wear their glasses. Either it was uncomfortable or they were worried about breaking them. I know not all people can use contacts but it might be the best solution if possible. Or be like Tbone and get LASIK, hah.

Don't believe everything you think.

I've used it with my contacts, but I don't wear them often. I don't want to have to go put them in just for some VR. I'm looking into those insets I saw on kickstarter. Lasik would be cool.

I wear glasses but I don't use them in the rift, for some odd reason I don't need them.
