Can I use the Sentinel XR Glasses with prescription lenses?Updated a month ago

Last Updated: July 22, 2025

Yes! The Sentinel XR Glasses are built to accommodate users with vision correction needs — whether you have mild myopia or use fully customized prescription lenses. You don’t have to choose between clarity and comfort.


Built-In Myopia Adjustment

The glasses include an integrated diopter adjustment dial that supports mild to moderate nearsightedness:

  • Range: 0.00D to –5.00D
  • Independently adjustable for each eye
  • Quick and easy to fine-tune without external tools

This feature is ideal for users who typically wear glasses for distance vision or gaming but prefer a glasses-free XR experience.


Magnetic Prescription Lens Insert (Optional)

For those with stronger or more complex prescriptions, we’ve designed a snap-in prescription lens adapter (sold separately). This lightweight insert allows you to:

  • Load custom lenses from your local optician
  • Attach magnetically to the internal frame of the Sentinel XR Glasses
  • Each lens can be independently loaded with your prescription (for users with different prescriptions per eye)
  • Preserve clarity without pressure on your nose or ears

💡 The insert is designed to sit snugly inside the glasses frame with the magnetic attachment and does not interfere with electrochromic lens dimming or field of view.


Can I use with my own Glasses

We do not recommend wearing the Sentinel XR glasses over your own glasses. We recommend getting the magnetic attachment since it will lay flush and have a way better wearing experience.
