GUNNAR Optiks has solidified its position beyond simple desk accessories, evolving its blue-light glasses into a robust collection for 2026.

Collaborations extend to properties like Cyberpunk 2077 and Tomb Raider, alongside unique original designs. The current lineup features frames catering to fan passions and more classic styles for daily wear, all while maintaining GUNNAR's core functionality.

Given the extensive catalog, this selection highlights releases that stand out for their distinctive designs and continued availability. The list will be updated as new collections emerge.

Cyberpunk 2077 Militech Gunnar Glasses

Following the Dex model, GUNNAR's official Cyberpunk 2077 glasses adopt a tactical-combat aesthetic inspired by Night City's Militech corporation. These glasses feature rugged lines, sharp geometry, and a high-wrap shield design made from lightweight engineered polymer. GUNNAR states the shield enhances peripheral clarity and situational awareness, benefiting fast-paced gaming. The patented lens technology blocks blue light and UV rays, reducing digital eye strain and sharpening contrast. The G-Shield Plus coating ensures lenses remain anti-reflective and smudge-resistant. Available in Amber and Sun lens options, these glasses offer an immersive Night City experience.

GUNNAR x Zenless Zone Zero Soldier 11 Glasses

This collaboration with HoYoverse introduces Zenless Zone Zero eyewear, modeled after Soldier 11. The frames utilize a single continuous shield lens, similar to tactical visors, providing a wide field of view ideal for fast-paced games or multi-monitor setups. Visible screws on the rear add an industrial touch. Despite their bold appearance, the glasses weigh only 34.9 grams and feature flexible spring hinges for comfort during long sessions. Lens options include amber (blocking 65% blue light) and Sun (blocking 90% blue light), with G-Shield Premium coating for anti-reflective, hydrophobic, and smudge-resistant properties. Each pair includes a themed pouch and microfiber cloth.

Tomb Raider Croft Gunnar Glasses

Celebrating the Tomb Raider franchise's 30th anniversary, the Croft glasses pay homage to Lara Croft. The design features slim, rounded lenses and a curved bridge, reminiscent of her iconic eyewear. The stainless steel frame is overlaid with engineered polymer for a clean, understated look. Weighing 28g with a 134mm frame width, these glasses are lightweight for extended wear, featuring multi-barrel hinges for a flexible fit. Standard amber lenses offer a Blue Light Protection Factor of 65 and 100% UV protection, with additional lens options like Amber Shift, Sun, and Amber Max. Accessories include a Dagger of Xian pin, a 30th Anniversary cleaning cloth, a pouch, and a knife-style belt case.

GUNNAR Novato Glasses

Part of GUNNAR's premium "Legendary" range, the Novato features a sleek geometric aviator design suitable for both gaming and everyday wear. The frame is constructed from ultra-lightweight titanium, weighing just 24.1 grams. Flexible spring hinges and adjustable nose pads ensure a comfortable fit for various face shapes.

Amber lenses block 65% of blue light and 100% of UV rays, with Sun-Shift and prescription options available. Each pair comes with a hard case, soft pouch, microfiber cloth, and a 24-month warranty.

Fallout Lucky 38 Gunnar Glasses

The Lucky 38 model channels the vintage Vegas Strip aesthetic of Fallout: New Vegas, named after the iconic Lucky 38 casino. These frames offer a smaller, more understated profile, ideal for wear with headsets during long gaming sessions. The "Epic" rated lenses feature a G-Shield Plus coating with anti-reflective and hard-coat treatments, while the amber tint blocks 65% of blue light. Clear and Clear Pro tints are available with prescription lenses. Accessories include a leather case with the Lucky 38 logo, a fabric slipcase, and a cleaning cloth featuring Victor the Securitron.

GUNNAR Intercept Crystal Glasses

The Intercept, a long-standing frame from GUNNAR, receives a refresh with Crystal colorways, including Crystal Cobalt. These glasses feature a retro-classic square design made from durable nylon, weighing only 33g. Multi-barrel hinges enhance flexibility, and the low-bridge fit accommodates various face shapes. Reviews praise the build quality relative to the price. Lens options include the signature amber tint (65% blue light blockage), clearer 35% lenses for color-sensitive tasks, Sun-Shift sunglass variants, and prescription support. The G-Shield coating offers dual-sided anti-reflective protection. Each pair includes a microfiber pouch and a 12-month warranty.
