Visor Depth Test

This test requires a large piece of cardboard (about 18" x 30"). Fold it around your monitor.  Using easily removable tape, experiment with different shroud depths to see what is the shortest depth that effectively removes the glare spots.  Large areas  of light colored walls or large windows directly behind the monitor create diffuse reflections or "veiling" glare problems that are not well addressed by visors / hoods.

Monitor visors are typically described in terms of the overall front to back dimension of the unit, depicted by the blue arrow. Most visors lose one to two inches of depth when attached to the monitor.  If you only require a minimal shroud depth, most any inexpensive visor will work.

If you require a product that combats serious glare problems, our 16" deep MVA1923 series visors handle some of the worst glare problems with as much as 15.5 inches of shade depth.
