These custom prescription lens inserts are designed for selected Pimax 5K and 8K series VR headsets, including Pimax 5K Plus, 5K Super, 8K, 8K Plus, and 8KX.
Each pair is made according to the prescription values you provide, giving you a dedicated vision-correction option without having to wear regular glasses inside the headset. Plano lenses are also available for users who do not need vision correction but want an additional protective layer over the headset optics.
Anti-glare and scratch-resistant coatings are included with every pair.

Installation Tutorial
Watch the short installation video below before fitting your prescription lens inserts. The video demonstrates installation on the Pimax 8KX.
How to Enter Your Prescription
Enter the SPH, CYL, AXIS, and PD values exactly as they appear on your eyeglass prescription.
SPH: Sphere power. A minus (-) value normally indicates nearsightedness, while a plus (+) value indicates farsightedness.
CYL: Cylinder power used for astigmatism correction.
AXIS: Enter this value when your prescription includes CYL.
PD: Pupillary distance in millimeters. If your prescription provides separate right and left PD values, select the separate PD option and enter both values.
PD is optional in the order form, but providing it when available can help us position the optical centers more accurately.
If your prescription contains prism, ADD, or values that are not available in the order form, please contact us before placing your order.
Why Use Prescription Lens Inserts with Pimax?
No Glasses Inside the Headset: Prescription inserts provide your required vision correction without the eyeglass frame sitting inside the facial interface.
Reduced Contact Risk: The inserts create an additional barrier between your eyes or eyewear and the original Pimax headset lenses.
Removable Design: The inserts can be removed when you need to clean them or share the headset with another user.
Custom Prescription: Each prescription pair is manufactured according to the SPH, CYL, AXIS, and PD information you provide.
High-Index Materials: Higher prescriptions can be produced with high-index lens materials when required to help control lens thickness and weight.
Included Coatings: Anti-glare and scratch-resistant coatings are included.
Prescription inserts are designed to reduce the need for additional eyeglass frames inside the headset. Actual eye relief and effective field of view can vary depending on your prescription, facial interface, headset fit, and individual face shape.
