No I wouldn’t consider these as viable everyday wear, but given how badly nearsighted I am, they still give me much better focus than my natural vision.

I got 2 pairs of these delivered today for only $7.16 total 👍

    I’m not questioning the use of them medically, I’m questioning the idea that these do anything for AI.

    They still cause depth-perception problems, regardless. Even you commented yourself you wouldn’t wear them while driving.

      They don’t cause any depth perception problems you silly goose, I’m wearing them right now as I type these messages on my tablet.

      But they do cause just enough distortion to make the characters on the screen look slightly duplicated in random places until I shift my head a little bit, I apparently have to spend a little longer making sure I type and spell everything correctly.

      Honestly, if I absolutely had to, given the only options of no glasses or pinhole glasses, I’d choose pinhole glasses for driving if it were an absolute emergency, but again I seriously don’t recommend that.

        you have posted this in a community called Fuck AI. this is why everyone is trying to work out what your post has to do with anti-AI sentiment.

          My bad, I also posted under Glasses and Eyewear, I’m getting comments from both communities right now.

          The glasses block significant facial features used for facial recognition.
