Mr. Big.Biggs Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Just received my lens inserts from VR Opticians today for my index. Best 70 bucks I’ve spent (sans the Index itself of course) Perfect clarity and comfort since I no longer have my glasses stuck under the headset. Also allows me to crank in the field of view thingy giving me a very broad view in all 4 directions. Highly recommended if your a glasses wearer like myself. Cheers! I9 (5Ghz turbo)2080ti 64Gb 3200 ram. 3 drives. A sata 2tb storage and 2 M.2 drives. 1 is 1tb, 1 is 500gb. Valve Index, Virpil t50 cm2 stick, t50 base and v3 throttle w mini stick.

Gman109 Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 +1, I've had prescription lens inserts from 3 different companies for 6 different headsets now, and VR Opticians is by FAR the best to deal with. Best comms, they sent me a link within a day of ordering each time to track the progress of my lenses, and their product IMO is superior - big time - to the competition.

Chapa Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Same experience with VR Optician, very happy with the lenses. I added the blue filter. I have large spherical correction 5.25/4.0, so it was more expensive but definitively worth their price. i7 12700k, RTX 3080ti, 64GB RAM, M.2 512Go, Quest 3

speed-of-heat Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Yep +1, massive improvement in clarity for cost, in the Reverb, great product SYSTEM SPECS: Hardware AMD 9800X3D, 64Gb RAM, 4090 FE, Virpil T50CM3 Throttle, WinWIng Orion 2 & F-16EX + MFG Crosswinds V2, Varjo Aero SOFTWARE: Microsoft Windows 11, VoiceAttack & VAICOM PRO YOUTUBE CHANNEL: @speed-of-heat
Gman109 Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Same experience with VR Optician, very happy with the lenses. I added the blue filter. I have large spherical correction 5.25/4.0, so it was more expensive but definitively worth their price. I too have a medium-ish astigmatism in my right eye, which increased the cost from 99 to 122$ CAD, but IMO this is still an extremely good price and value for these lenses. Considering I paid MORE from 2 other makers, which provided a vastly inferior product, I'm very satisfied with the cost to value ratio that this company provides. Must have IMO for any VR user that needs near sighted correction, and should be budgeted into any VR purchase, again IMO. The Rift S has been the only headset that my glassed fit comfortably in, the Reverb is awful on that count for me. Chapa - have you any experience with lenses without the added Blue filter they offer, in order to compare what it's like with or without it? Even if not, could you perhaps expand a bit on how that Blue/filter option is? I've not gotten it on any of the lens sets I've purchased, and now I'm wondering if I should email them and get them to add it to my current order which is just beginning it's process.

Chapa Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 @Gman109 Unfortunatly, I can't really answer your questions because it's my first VR lenses. In theory, the blue filter has the effect to change the color balance with more yellow. Having glasses with blue filter, I am already accustomed, so can't give feeling about it. i7 12700k, RTX 3080ti, 64GB RAM, M.2 512Go, Quest 3
speed-of-heat Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 I had the blue filters on my o+ I didn't get them on my reverb... I can't tell the difference....

Wmacky Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 I've had good dealing with them too, But my biggest issue is: Why are they currently ignoring Pimax users? They refuse to offer any options?
