Producers spend countless hours in front of their screens adjusting plugins, arranging stems, and refining mixes late into the night. That time takes a toll not only on the ears but also on the eyes. GUNNAR has built its reputation on reducing digital fatigue, and the new Tioga frames arrive as the latest addition to their Mineral Glass Collection. Designed with optical clarity, durability, and a modern look, Tioga functions as both eyewear and a studio tool built around the needs of today’s music producers.
Inspired by the clarity of Lake Tioga, these frames combine premium Italian acetate with lightweight carbon fiber reinforced wood. They are available in Maroon Rosewood and Gray Crystal Walnut finishes. The mineral glass lenses provide an optical standard similar to high-end cameras and telescopes. They are resistant to scratches and shattering, offering long-term reliability. For producers working inside digital audio workstations, this means sharper focus, reduced strain, and consistent comfort during long studio sessions.
Mineral Glass Clarity for Studio Work
Unlike standard blue light glasses that often rely on plastic, Tioga features distortion-free mineral glass. Producers who work long hours editing, mixing, and referencing across multiple monitors will notice the sharper image quality. GUNNAR’s patented technology and G-Shield coating block both UV rays and harmful blue light. This reduces strain without affecting visual accuracy.
Two lens options are available. The GUNNAR-Focus Amber lens provides 65 GBLF protection, offering comfort during extended time at the screen with a warmer visual tone that helps under harsh lighting. The Clear Pro lens provides 20 GBLF filtering while maintaining true-to-life color. Producers who need exact accuracy in their production software will find this option useful. Both lens types aim to support long sessions with less fatigue and clearer focus.
Built for Daily Studio Use

Tioga has been constructed with long-term use in mind. The round silhouette is balanced and modern. The reinforced wood and acetate build keeps the frame strong while remaining light. Flexible spring hinges add comfort during extended wear. This makes Tioga suitable for marathon mixing sessions, detailed editing, or preparing live sets.
Each pair includes a premium glasses case, a microfiber pouch, and a cleaning cloth, along with a 24-month warranty. With an MSRP of $250, Tioga is placed in the premium eyewear category. The design, lens quality, and durability position it as a long-term investment for anyone who spends most of their working hours in front of a screen.
For music producers who rely on their vision as much as their ears, Tioga provides practical relief from digital strain while maintaining accuracy and style. It supports workflow efficiency, helps reduce discomfort, and extends focus throughout long production days.
