Vertex Power 1.5 Onyx Amber Reading glasses- comfortable, durable and quality
I have a small nose. This Vertex Power 1.5 onyx Amber fit and perform excellently. I immediately noticed the difference when reading from my phone, computer and tablet. I wanted to custom order from Gunnar’s website but custom ordering with a prescription is more expensive. I thought I would try these first. Unlike inexpensive readers from stores like Walmart or CVS, these glasses feel light yet durable and offer high-quality experience. They give me the impression of wearing glass lenses rather than plastic ones if that makes sense.

Great glasses
Amazing glasses, I personally like the yellow tint. It really helps my eyes. I don’t feel my eyes strained. I think it’s worth it if you are on the computer or electronics a lot.

Best reading glasses I have ever owned
Clear lens with good blue blocking. Both the frame and lenses seem very sturdy and much higher quality than cheap reading glasses.

Probably open box, but still good.
Ordered 3 pairs total. Only one appeared to be new in an unopened box. One had no or much lower magnification than the 1.5 I ordered, despite the box saying it was 1.5. These are probably so cheap because they are returns/open box. All that being said, I do like them. The 1.5x amber are good reading, working, and gaming glasses for me. Way better than the normal 1.5s I was wearing. Only giving 4 stars because they didn't say they were open box. I can deal with it for the 50% off price. Maybe the blue blocking will help my eyes improve to the point I can use the no magnification set they sent me some day.

Love these
Unfortunately this is my 4th pair the plastics not very durable and breaks easily over time. But the glasses work great they just need to design a stronger frame

If you are thinking about these, just do it - buy them
I don't write a lot of reviews, but as soon as I put these on, it was almost the first thing that came to mind and I had to write a review.As someone who attends online university full time, works in IT full time, and an avid video game player, its safe to say I spend a lot of time on my PC. I have bought countless pairs of the cheap reading glasses ranging from 5 pairs for $20 to 30 each pair. None even come close to these. The optical quality is fantastic.I have read several reviews which say the frames are not super great quality for the price. I can't attest to that as I have only been wearing them for about 20 minutes so far. But if they break, I will buy a new pair.I purchased the 1.5x readers/computer glasses as I need a slight vision correction. I usually get 1.25x from the drug store and was hesitant to buy a 1.5x, but I am happy so far. I have not had to move my monitor closer and its 24 inches from where I sit.The blue light blocking is fantastic. I already have been using the Windows Night Light feature at 100% strength to reduce blue light, but with these, it becomes less necessary and I actually think it is ok with that Windows feature disabled. Combined, its a too yellow. I'll work with this setting more as I spend more time with these glasses.If you are on the fence and think it is a lot of money for a pair of reading or computer glasses, like I was, they are worth it in my opinion.

Great for what it is meant for
I see reviews about blur or ghosting to the side.....Well, if you need reading glasses and want to block blue light and clarify your gaming, these work. Don't buy these to magnify the game. They work great as reading glasses if you need them. If you don't need reading glasses things will blur. Buy the ones that don't have magnification. The ghosting off to the side is the blue light. You can see it off to the corner of the screen you are looking at. I don't know about you but when I am playing a game, anything that happens off the screen does not matter. The house could start on fire and I don't look two inches to the side of the screen. I had non magnified versions and they were great, even while driving. Then I needed reading glasses and bought the 1.5 version. They are great. I don't use them to drive because they blur at a distance like all reading glasses. These are great and well worth the investment. I have owned three pairs, my non magnified for a year, no problems and then the 1.5 I bought and another set of 1.5 for my office at work. They don't break. Not sure how big of heads those who complain about breaking them have or if they are just too lazy to take them off like a normal person because they are rage quitting and one hand ripping them off their heads but I have no problem with them after a year and then another 5 months on the others. If you are breaking them, they are not your controller you throw down, they are glasses. Take care of them and enjoy the benefits. Good game all.
