In the realm of gaming accessories, innovative designs often capture the attention of enthusiasts. Recently, a new line of eyewear has emerged that incorporates a popular video game theme.
Glasses brand Gunnar Optiks has introduced a fresh line of eyewear inspired by Call of Duty, specifically the Ghost edition models. These glasses showcase a design reminiscent of military aviator sunglasses, blending stainless steel and polymer for a modern look. The aesthetic appears to nod toward the iconic specs worn by a character in the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 campaign, aligning perfectly with the release timing.
The eyewear comes in a bold Onyx/Mercury colorway and offers two different lens options. Gamers can choose from the standard Signature Amber lens or opt for the newly developed AmberNetrual Sun-Shift lens, which adapts to varying light conditions by darkening in sunlight.
The standard edition is priced at $74, while the innovative Amber Sun-Shift version retails for $109. These prices align with what one might expect for high-quality eyewear, and the purchase includes several value-added items like a custom Call of Duty glasses collector's case, along with a branded microfiber cloth and pouch.
Purchasing these glasses also grants buyers an exclusive in-game weapon charm—the mystery crate—which could be particularly appealing for passionate Call of Duty collectors.
According to the manufacturer, the glasses are designed to mitigate some negative effects associated with extended screen time, such as dry eyes, blurred vision, and headaches. Personal experiences will ultimately determine the effectiveness of these claims, so firsthand testing would be ideal for a more informed opinion.
Furthermore, it’s been a noteworthy week for the Call of Duty franchise beyond just eyewear. New KontrolFreek thumbsticks themed around Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have hit stores, in addition to a substantial collection of Zombies-inspired accessories released by SteelSeries.
