Why You Shouldn’t Use Your Regular Glasses with VR Headsets

1. Regular Glasses Aren’t Made for VR

Your everyday eyewear isn’t built for virtual reality headsets' tight, enclosed design. Wearing standard glasses in a headset can lead to:

• Awkward pressure on your temples and nose

• Improper lens alignment, causing blurry vision

• Increased risk of motion sickness and eye strain

2. You Risk Damaging Both Your Glasses and Your Headset

Trying to squeeze your glasses into a VR headset can:

• Scratch the headset’s lenses (which are costly to replace)

• Bend or misalign your glasses frames

• Lead to repeated readjustments that disrupt your immersion

3. There’s a Better Option: VR-Specific Prescription Inserts

Instead of using your everyday glasses, switch to:

• Prescription lens inserts that clip right into your headset

• VR-compatible glasses with slim arms and optimized lens distance

Benefits include: no fogging, no slipping, and all-day comfort during use.

4. Get the Most Out of VR—Now and in the Future
