I've love the digital HD picture on the television, and I've heard of HD eyeglasses and sunglasses in advertisements. Is anyone using these, are they as good as they claim. Your thoughts? http://www.allaboutvision.com/lenses/wavefront-lenses.htm

Thanks for that interesting article SB......I've never heard of these glasses but it would be great to try them and find out if they help my sight more than my conventional reading/distance specs do now....

Sounds dodgey to me.
I bet they are just slightly magnifying lenses.

That's very interesting SeaBreeze. I'll check into it when I'm ready for new glasses.

It is interesting, I have to get new glasses one of these days. I'll have to read the article again, does it work with bifocals?

Very interesting, SB, not sure I'd buy them though, I added the HD feature to Dish, I don't think it is worth the extra $...jmho.

I think the technology is valid (although I've never tried them) but I would stick to getting them from your optometrist and not ordering them from an infomercial.
Yep, I've seen "HD Glasses" advertised on TV for some ridiculous price such as $19.95, and they claim to cut glare and improve definition. More likely they're just a pair of yellow-tinted shooter's glasses, which is hardly high-tech.

I've seen the ads and they are appealing, but I have my own "high definition" coming my way very soon. Final measurement tomorrow and then first surgery on Valentine's Day!:woohoo1:

Have to say I'm not all that impressed with HDTV. Sure, the picture's nice but not all it's hyped to be. Of course, I'm already behind the times with the new UltraHD . . . !

Phil, don't rubbish shooter's glasses. Some are very high calibre.

Yes, but they don't claim all the whiz-bang scientific mumbo-jumbo that these other glasses claim. Yellow shooter's glasses have been field-proven, so to speak; these new ones just sound like another high-priced scam.

You need glasses!
When I switch from regular channels to the same one on HD, it's a very distinct difference to me...so much more sharp and clear. The regular picture is dull and blurry. With HD, you can see people's individual pores in their face...not one of the pluses. layful:

SB, I am also one to pore over the quality on the screen.
