How to Wear Glasses While Watching VR Porn Movies?
Wearing glasses at the same time as a set of VR goggles can be extremely uncomfortable for many people watching VR porn movies. In this article, we share the knowledge we've gained over many years of using VR technology on various devices and offer some suggestions on how to make it more tolerable and comfortable.
Using Contact Lenses is One of the Options
Since wearing glasses may not be optional, sometimes you have to learn how to deal with putting them inside a set of VR goggles. You can wear contact lenses, but there are times when these dry out your eyes excessively and don't give you the same visual acuity as glasses. What's more, if you spend many hours a day in front of a computer screen, not to mention the time you spend inside a set of VR goggles with VR porn scenes, the blue-light protection offered by corrective glasses certainly helps alleviate headaches.
In short, various alternatives can be considered, but wearing glasses while watching VR porn videos seems to be the most sensible solution. One major drawback, however, is that some VR or AR devices are not designed to be worn with glasses at all – such is the case with the Magic Leap One. Because of the way these devices adhere to the face, glasses cannot be worn, and each pair must be designed specifically for its owner.
First of All: Measure the Lens Spacing in the VR Goggles!
It's worth noting that this is not directly related to wearing glasses, but be sure to measure your IPD and adjust your goggle sets accordingly. If they have physical IPD controls, all the better.
In the rest of this article, we'll discuss tips for ensuring a more comfortable goggle fit, officially recommended goggle sizes by Oculus, accessories you can buy to help, details on corrective lenses for VR goggle sets, and our recommendation for the best VR goggle sets to wear with glasses during sessions with VR porn scenes.
Tips for a Comfortable VR Headset Fit
How to Wear VR Goggles
Regardless of which set of VR goggles you use for virtual reality porn, the most important thing we can recommend is not to use the traditional method of putting on a set of goggles. In most cases, you'll find that people put the set on by starting by placing the bottom of the strap on the back of their head and then lowering it over their eyes – similar to putting on a baseball cap. However, if you wear glasses, they are likely to be even more squashed.
Instead, you should do the opposite. First press the set to your face, making sure the glasses fit inside, and don't squash the lenses, then pull the strap over the back of your head, similar to how you put on swimming goggles.
Correct the Glasses' Frames
Once you have the sets fit snugly on your head, we recommend moving the goggles forward slightly, gently moving the sides of the frames that protrude at the ear. Usually, a set of goggles compresses the glasses, but if you make this move, you can gain a little more space, making it more comfortable for prolonged sessions with VR porn videos.
Finally, make sure that the strap of the set on each side doesn't pinch your ears or press them against the frames (if you're using a traditional set with a strap that attaches most of the set to your forehead), similar to wearing headphones that don't cover the entire ear. After about 20 minutes, when your ear is squished against the frame of the glasses, it really starts to cause discomfort, so make sure you don't experience something like this.
Adjust the IPD – Distance Between Lenses
For VR goggles that have an IPD (Interpupillary Distance) adjustment system, it's also a good idea to customize this parameter for your glasses. IPD refers to the distance between the centers of the pupils of the eyes and varies from person to person. If your set of goggles has a physical IPD adjuster, adjust it to fit the width of your eyes. If there is no such feature, check the software settings or manufacturer's instructions to find out how to tweak the IPD.
Oculus, one of the major manufacturers of VR headsets, also offers official recommendations for wearing the glasses with their kits. They usually recommend that goggle wearers not put on the goggle kit directly, but wear it loosely on the tip of the nose and adjust it so that it doesn't put pressure on the goggle frames. It's a good idea to check the manufacturer's instructions for the specific set you have for recommendations on how to wear the goggles for the best reception of VR porn scenes.
Additional Accessories for VR Goggles
If you feel that it is still uncomfortable to wear your goggles with your VR kit, there are also some accessories and solutions that can help. There are special inserts for VR goggles on the market that allow you to place your glasses inside the set for greater comfort. You can look for such an insert designed for the specific set of VR goggles you have.
Alternatively, you can also consider ordering corrective lenses dedicated to VR headsets. There are companies that offer to order optical lenses that fit different models of VR goggles. You can get an eye exam and have the corrective lenses customized to your vision defect, which will ensure sharp vision without having to wear additional glasses during your meetups with VR porn scenes.
The Conclusion
In conclusion, wearing glasses while watching VR porn scenes via your VR goggles can be a challenge, but there are some techniques and accessories that can help make you more comfortable. It is recommended to test different methods and keep experimenting to find the best solution for you and enjoy the virtual reality porn experiences to the fullest.
