Endless hours in front of a screen have become the new normal. But with it come invisible side effects: eye strain, headaches, and disrupted sleep. To counter these issues, GUNNAR has launched the Tioga, a premium pair of glasses that blends mineral glass lenses with blue light protection technology. Inspired by the crystal-clear waters of California’s Tioga Lake, these glasses offer a unique visual experience—protecting your eyes while elevating your style.
What sets the Tioga apart is its lens technology. While most blue-light glasses use plastic, GUNNAR has chosen mineral glass, the same high-quality material found in professional cameras and telescopes. This means superior optical clarity, scratch resistance, and durability.
You can choose between two advanced options:
GBLF 65 Amber – a warm amber tint that blocks more blue light, perfect for long gaming or work sessions.
GBLF 20 Clear Pro – almost transparent, designed for creatives who need accurate color fidelity.
Both versions also provide 100% UV protection, creating a complete shield for your eyes indoors and outdoors.
Protection is one thing, but the Tioga also delivers in style. Its round frame shape strikes the balance between modern and timeless.
Each frame is crafted from a unique mix of Italian acetate and carbon fiber-reinforced wood, making it both elegant and lightweight. Two distinct finishes are available:
Maroon Rosewood – a deep, refined wood tone.
Gray Crystal Walnut – a lighter, more translucent look with a mineral vibe.
Spring hinges add flexibility, adapting comfortably to different face shapes. At just 1.31 ounces (37 g), the Tioga remains comfortable even after hours of wear.
Wearing the Tioga is like seeing your screen through a new lens—literally. The mineral glass lenses deliver sharp, distortion-free vision that feels more natural than traditional plastic filters.
For gamers, the Amber 65 reduces glare and enhances contrast, helping eyes stay sharp during marathon sessions.
For creatives, the Clear Pro 20 ensures true-to-life color reproduction, essential for photo editing, design, and video work.
In short: Tioga adapts to your needs, whether you’re chasing the next win or perfecting a creative project.
The Tioga was built for anyone spending long stretches in front of screens:
Digital professionals: developers, marketers, video editors.
Gamers: players looking for endurance and comfort.
Creatives: designers, photographers, and visual artists requiring accurate colors.
Everyday users: anyone who wants to protect their eyes while maintaining a premium, stylish look.

Whether you’re gaming, working, or creating, the Tioga is built to support your lifestyle and safeguard your vision. At $250, it’s an investment in both long-term comfort and elevated design.
