1
00:00:07,759 --> 00:00:14,759
now this is something that I've actually been curious about for the longest time

2
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:17,160
this is steel series gaming eyewear

3
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:22,880
developed with Gunner Optics so the claim and there are many claims

4
00:00:20,519 --> 00:00:28,840
about these glasses is that they will reduce the overall eye fatigue and eye

5
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:30,840
strain associated with using a computer

6
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:34,680
monitor for prolonged periods of time so I don't know if you guys know this but

7
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:39,840
probably on a daily basis I use a computer monitor for anywhere from about

8
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:46,039
8 to 12 hours so it's a very very long time and that causes some fatigue on my

9
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:53,559
eyes especially at work where I've got three 24in monitors and then a fourth

10
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:55,760
17-in monitor it's a lot of eye gouging

11
00:00:53,559 --> 00:00:58,760
brightness and light that is uh that is making me feel tired so one of the

12
00:00:57,039 --> 00:01:02,480
things that I did do recently is even though I have a very mild prescription I

13
00:01:00,719 --> 00:01:06,080
tried getting some glasses to see if that would make my eyes feel overall

14
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:09,000
less tired all the time so far it hasn't really made a difference I've had them

15
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:14,479
for a couple weeks the next thing I wanted to try was using the steel series

16
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:20,600
scope so that's the particular one we're looking at here glasses

17
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:24,720
now I'm going to make the overall approach to this video fairly simple and

18
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:30,000
I'm just going to outline all of the claims that steel series and Gunner

19
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:32,119
Optics make in addition to just unboxing

20
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:36,560
looking at the product then what I'm going to do is I'm going to wear these

21
00:01:34,399 --> 00:01:41,520
glasses every time I'm in front of a screen for at least a week maybe let's

22
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:48,240
why don't we say two weeks let's say two weeks to get a feel for whether my eyes

23
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:50,240
actually experience any difference in

24
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,840
their fatigue level so I'm actually cheating because there's a lot of

25
00:01:51,719 --> 00:02:00,680
different stuff that they have to say about it I got my iPad there but why don't we start with uh some of the

26
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:04,280
included okay what is this the digital performance eyewear something okay is

27
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:08,800
excellent out of the box non-prescription Gunner eyewear is highly recommended as a solution for

28
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:13,319
contact wearers or post corrective surgery parent patients crystalline and

29
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:19,360
Amber lenses are precisely tuned with Plus point2 diopters for digital screen

30
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:22,280
viewing distance okay cool yeah limited

31
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:25,959
warranty okay uses and care instructions so probably just basically yeah be

32
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:31,680
careful with them and use the cleaning solution compatible with the okay y got

33
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:33,519
it and and that's like um billion

34
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:39,680
different languages okay inside the Box we also find nice little

35
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:43,400
sleeve little Gunner thing on it okay we

36
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:46,159
find a separate box for the glasses

37
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:52,599
themselves and we will have to figure out how those come

38
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:54,440
off so what does steel series or and

39
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:58,480
Gunner okay so this is a collaborative project here what do they have to say

40
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:04,159
about them so I've already outlined what the overall effect is supposed to be but

41
00:03:01,879 --> 00:03:09,360
let's talk a little bit about how they say they work so number one is the tint

42
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:12,040
of the glasses so this is Amber but they capitalize some of the letters and not

43
00:03:10,879 --> 00:03:18,680
some of the other letters but these are Amber lenses and they're supposed to reduce the amount of harsh bright blue

44
00:03:16,599 --> 00:03:25,319
light and make everything appear with more of a of a warm color so that is

45
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:29,959
supposed to reduce fatigue okay so

46
00:03:25,319 --> 00:03:32,599
that's the Y yellow him the shape so the

47
00:03:29,959 --> 00:03:37,040
wrapped curved lens is supposed to retain eye moisture so rather than

48
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:41,560
having moisture evaporate away from your eyes much more readily when you're not

49
00:03:38,959 --> 00:03:45,439
wearing these glasses it is supposed to allow them to retain some of it which

50
00:03:44,159 --> 00:03:50,799
means that when you're not blinking for a prolong period of time let's say when you're very very focused whether it's on

51
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:54,720
a spreadsheet or whether it's on a game uh they are not supposed to dry out as

52
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,959
easily so that's one of the things that my optometrist actually mentioned when I

53
00:03:56,519 --> 00:04:02,040
first went in complaining about eye fatigue was make sure you're blinking

54
00:03:59,519 --> 00:04:07,280
enough because eye dryness can be one of the leading causes of eye tiredness so

55
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:10,519
there's that uh the proprietary lens material offers the clearest image

56
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,640
possible and comprised of lightweight materials for Long Haul ergonomics I can

57
00:04:12,079 --> 00:04:19,320
tell you guys right now it's very very light the overall glasses including the

58
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:23,240
uh including the frames extremely light the coating so they're designed to

59
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:27,600
reduce glare and protect the lens okay anti-reflective coating I guess you guys

60
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:31,680
can be the judges of how anti-reflective it is when I go like this okay the fit

61
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:36,280
ergonomically designed the lens and frame solution are constructed Advanced lightweight so okay once again

62
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:41,600
lightweight yet durable so let's have a look at how they're

63
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,080
made so those are the hinges right there

64
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:48,680
I'd say you still have to be careful with them they're still glasses they got

65
00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:48,680
kind of a neat carbon fiber

66
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,880
ears are crooked so whenever I wear

67
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,880
glasses that are just kind of off the uh off the rack so to speak the only way

68
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:12,919
that they fit me properly and evenly is if they grip the head a little bit and

69
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:17,440
these ones do grip they do hold on just like my uh just like my uh my sunglasses

70
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:21,080
but they don't grip too much they're not uncomfortable so that's that's a good

71
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:25,400
thing as well okay the benefits for gamers so improves visual efficiency

72
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:30,039
with the change in the tint coating focusing power and curvature okay

73
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:35,039
improve visual endurance improve visual recovery keep your eyes fresh and

74
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,520
relaxed okay minimizes eye strain so you

75
00:05:35,039 --> 00:05:39,840
can get them with a prescription although the ones that are available to

76
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,240
just like buy online are going to be the non-prescription ones so if you already

77
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:48,639
have corrective lenses such as contacts these are going to be ideal for you and

78
00:05:46,919 --> 00:05:52,039
uh but yeah if you go to Gunner Optics you can actually get them directly from

79
00:05:49,919 --> 00:05:56,199
them with prescription lenses and oh this is neat so headset

80
00:05:54,680 --> 00:06:00,840
compatible that's a really good point because most glasses whether they're 3D

81
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:04,479
Vision glasses for example Le or whether they are prescription glasses are often

82
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:09,199
a bit of a pain with a headset and I wish I had a headset on me but you can

83
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,720
see how flat to my head these sit so I

84
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:15,720
can't imagine there'd be any difficulty with a headset but when I do my Impressions video I will definitely try

85
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:19,880
a headset between now and then so I can let you guys know so yeah expect an

86
00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:24,240
update from me anywhere from sort of let's say 2 weeks to a month from now

87
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:28,360
I'll give them a really Lo prolonged trial to see how they go and I will let

88
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:33,280
you guys know sort of once and for all from someone who gets very very bad eye

89
00:06:31,599 --> 00:06:37,599
fatigue just from using a computer so much whether these things are actually

90
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:40,960
worth the Fairly Hefty ticket price so thank you for checking out this unboxing

91
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:46,560
and first look because we're going to need a much longer look and don't forget
