Do these 3D glasses do a good job of blocking out peripherial ambient light?

Yes! And I have 20/20 vision. (Nearly 50 years old and don't need glasses to to read either) I said all that to say this; Somehow these glasses enhance 3D experience when watching Blu ray 3D. Standard passive 3D glasses like LG for instance do not compare to these Oakleys. and I'm sure there are better ones out there... but I am completely satisfied with these Oakleys. Good luck!

they're not perfect. they do a pretty good job blocking out ambient light. the best way is to try them out for yourself each room and viewing environment Is different. you could always return them if they're not satisfactory.

Any 3D passive glasses, just like: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GTYOMIW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There isn't much difference in the 3D effect, but they are more comfortable to wear and don't fall apart. They also fit over my regular glasses.

yes, these glasses work great for reducing eye strain in any situation. I've had mine for several months now and I am very satisfied with them.

I bought them to block out blue light from my computer and e-reader. They aren't tinted so I wouldn't recommend them as sunglasses.

I wear them over glasses and they work fine. In my review of them I mention that they fog. That's true with or without glasses.

No. They are just, best suited for day use/bright light conditions. Use clear or amber lenses at night.

I have a Wayfarer kind of eye glasses and these fit over them just fine. It's just that it gets heavier on your nose with two glasses. So I prefer using contacts while watching in 3D. Hope that helps.

I use these as sunglasses for events I wear them to, they do a good job blocking the sun b/c of the dark tint. However, they have no UV protection and partially block your peripheral vision. And don't wear them in shaded areas, they're too dark to see well in anywhere other than daylight.

The foam isn't super thick and the glasses aren't super heavy so doesn't really block much more than a regular pair of sunglasses. Definitely doesn't create any random blind spots.Also, it may change with face size. Not sure, my face is on the bigger side though.

These are wonderful especially for us glass wearers. They block the sun from all over, even from the sides. I bought a pair to keep in each car and my friend who is (was a long time ago) a red head and light complected and very sensitive to sun found these glasses to be great and he doesn't wear them over glasses. I'd give it a try and see what you think. I think you'll be happy. John

Yes they do block out blue light very effectively. Really helps to use in evening to aid sleep.

It works well but the glasses are irritating to wear as they make everything look darker. I've only used the 3D for playing video games once but it was pretty cool and worked well.

They work for 3D movies or still pictures, including on the internet, but not on movies not taken in 3D. A regular movie (not 3D) is just a 2D movie and cannot be made 3D by wearing these glasses. I bought mine to view pictures of the surface of Mars taken in 3D. Most of these pictures come out well. Some, for some reason I don't understand, can't be resolved into good 3D. For the most part, they work. So, when they don't, I attribute it to the picture-taking, not the glasses.

I haven't used the glasses at night. I only use them for shooting and that's a daytime activity at the range. I can try them out tonight while walking around or driving, and see if they help with glare. It would be helpful if you can reply with how you plan to use the glasses for glare reduction, so I can replicate the conditions if possible.

From the computer yes (check out my review). I use them daily now when I'm just sitting and browsing or playing, they take a lot of the strain away and make it easier to go to sleep. They block solar rays, but they aren't really sunglasses, it will still be bright, but the danger from the rays will be gone.

I suppose that may depend poon your prescription glasses. For me, Yes. Although my glasses aren't large themselves. But, I have no trouble wearing these 3-d glasses over them
