Citroen has created the world’s first glasses that cure motion sickness – but would you ever wear them?

CITROEN has invented eyewear that supposedly cures motion sickness with its £90 Seetroen glasses.

However, not everyone will rejoice at the world first – as the chunky plastic creation is a bit of an eyesore itself.

The blue liquid within the rims simulates the horizon, and supposedly “resolves the conflict between the senses”, according to Citroen.

Passengers should put the Seetroen glasses on as soon as they begin to feel car or motion sickness, otherwise known as Kinetosis.

After 10 to 12 minutes the glasses will fool the brain into synchronising with the movement perceived by the inner ear – so that your eyes can focus on a book or a phone.

The glasses can then, theoretically, be taken off for the remainder of your journey.

There are no lenses in the rims, so that you can wear prescription glasses underneath.

They can only be worn by those who suffer from travel sickness that are aged above 10, as the inner ear will fully develop by then.

Paris-based design studio 5.5 designed the white soft-touch plastic glasses, which Citroen says reflects the French carmaker’s fresh, simple and ergonomic style.

Meanwhile, the patented technology was developed by French start-up firm Boarding Ring.

On a serious note, 30 million people suffer from motion sickness and one in three travellers have felt symptoms at least once in their life.

They are available from and retail for 99 euros (£88).

It has an effective rating of 95 per cent.
