GUNNAR OptiksReviews of gunnar.com

I really enjoy the quality of Gunnar Optiks eye-wear. As an Administrative Registered Nurse, I spend long hours in front of a computer and was in dire need of something effective outside of artificial tears that would alleviate the strain and burn associated with prolonged hours in front of a screen. Using Gunnar eye-wear made a significant difference in reducing eye strain, effectively contributed to visual clarity, and presents a subtle aesthetics when running from my screen to assist in patient care.

Service was easy and very fast. What impressed me the most was how fast the shipping was, although the shipping taxes did confuse me a bit, everything else went smoothly.

Very good customer service in the chat. I had many questions and the chat employee really helped me out with the answers. It was because of her recommendation for me to get the sheadog glasses, and I really love these glasses! They are lightest and most comfortable frame from Gunnar right now. And great packaging! I liked how my box came with a lot of tracking stickers on it, as if it came from a far away place. It's nothing really, but just the thought of it gave me a good feeling about it. Pros: Nice website. The Virtual Try On is accurate. Good Customer Service. Great packaging - inside and out. And high quality, designer frames. Cons: 1.) Most of their frames are huge. And for an average customer, this information is not apparent. The first prescription frame (Vinyl frames) I had bought from them was impossible to wear, because it would touch my eyebrows and cheeks, and that contact from above and below would put a lot of pressure on my nose where the glasses rest on my nose. And I lost that money, because I couldn't use those glasses anymore(I'm poor). 2.) An infuriating amount of few images of the frames. The Gunnar website for other countries has more pictures than the USA website. There should be a lot more pictures, and especially real life pictures with different facial structures to make a good decision, because most of their frames are huge, and annoying to wear. 3.) The .25 magnification on all the glasses makes it difficult to use for everyday tasks. And they don't have an option to not include that. Probably it's because most of their frames are curved. The chat employee told me that the Cruz glasses are the only frames that don't have the magnification, which is lazy and idiotic of them, because average customers don't know that info. Also Cruz is one of the ugliest frames, and it's too huge to wear. Its plastic nose is like the Felix Grey frames. Infuriating how that's the only option they have. Summary: do a lot of research before you buy your glasses from Gunnar. Be very careful about buying their huge frames, and even their smallest frame, the Sheadog, is still pretty huge.

Cheaply made items from low quality materials. Fast shipping

I love these glasses. They help my headaches and look great. I have the yellow for the day to day and clear for when I'm out of the office but still staring at a screen all day.

Sent the wrong prescription. The glasses themselves are fine but I can't see anything but a blur past 1-2 feet.

excellent product

There really good and have helped me out so far
