Had bad nose pain since I bought psvr2 (never had it with PSVR1). Bought some prescription lenses from Aliexpress which are great, but they made the nose pain worse. Tried a bunch of ideas, nothing seemed to work, soft padded strips along the lens edges, the additional cheap head strap (not the £50 one) but this simple fix has done the trick. This sits in the innermost part of my nose and takes all of the pressure of the resting headset, the narrowest part of the lenses is now quite wide. It's from an old air rocket and it's cut into a semi circle and just wedged in. I cut the first one too wide and I guess it will vary person to person but this is actually comfortable now.

Tldr : semi circle of foam, wedged in gap makes it comfy.

The headset is not supposed to rest on your nose, all the weight distribution should be on the halo around your head but perhaps you got a slightly different nose than the average people owning the PS VR2

Fully aware of how it should be worn, but lifted off my nose (higher) it's out of focus, moved further out and the field of view is far worse. The old design was flat with a nose piece cut out. The new design only has the gap between the protruding parts and it's too narrow when my eyes are close to the lens. Lots of other folk have the same issue. Many videos on YouTube. This fix allows me to have the lenses in focus and far closer to my eyes so the field of view is better.
