So I saw that there were some new gaming glasses available on Amazon for relatively cheap and I decided to order them to give them a go and see how they compare to some of the more expensive gaming glasses.
Duco Optiks was a brand that I have never heard of until they showed up in a search. When I purchased them they were priced at just $35 and qualified for my free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime. I ordered them and had them in 2 days.
When I opened the box I was surprised to see them packaged in a nice box with an actual hard glasses case and soft cloth case as well as a cleaning cloth. I should really upload the pictures that I took but my camera is acting up. I will post those later when I have time.
When I first tried them on I noticed that they were extremely light and pretty much felt the way I thought they would being that they look like a cheap pair of plastic sunglasses. They do have the amber yellow tint lens with anti-glare coatings but I doubt they are the same coating that Gunnar uses as the price is so cheap. Anyways I continued to sit down and play a few games of FIFA 15 and slowly my eyes adjusted to the yellow tint and felt relaxed.
I can say that I played 4-5 games and my eyes were not fatigued and after awhile I really forgot that they were on. However, I was not wearing my headset at the time so I can’t comment how they hold up and feel while wearing a gaming headset. I put them on with my headset and since they somewhat wrap around your ear, I am guessing that after a long period of time you may get some sort of soreness by your ears. Don’t let that stop you from purchasing these though, because for the price they seem to be a great pair of gaming glasses and are also covered under a 1 year limited manufactures warranty.
As with all gaming glasses and glasses in general you really have to try them on to see who they feel as everyone has a different head size and structure. If you would like to see what other people are saying about the Duco Optiks gaming glasses you can check out the other reviews by clicking here.
