ThinOptics Reading Glasses, 1.0 to 2.5, Slim 4mm Case, Ultra Light, Compact

Love, love love these. Have prescription reading glasses, but now these were not always strong enough for reading fine text (on packaging etc). Carrying these around 'just incase' was also a pain. But these thinoptics are so easy just to slip in a pocket. More expensive than bog standard overreaders, but so much more practical for occasional use when out and about, and still alot cheaper than prescription glasses. Ultra light and well made. Only slight grip is if you drop the case it does protect the glasses but it can cause the case to come unglued. Case still works but the one face is now a little lose. Love that they haave no nose pieces (don't need them) but bear in mind the ends of the arms for over the ears are not as secure as with standard glasses. Will absolutely buy another (stronger) pair when needed....

Like most people I have reached the age when I had trouble reading menus or even reading my emails on my mobile or laptop. I went through several cheap reading classes and they broke or were too heavy to take around. Then I came across the ThinOptics producs which were recommended by an American friend and I have not gone to other reading glasses since. These are very light indeed. And very thin. Being made of plastic they do break after a while, especially in the way that I punish them by sitting on them inadvertently. The only concern has been the price which on the ThinOptics Web site adds to international shipping and I thought it came too expensive. But purchasing them through Amazon this is a much better deal - even though not "cheap", it is much more in line with the price I am ready to pay for a product that is so useful and convenient. What I like most is how light they are, so I can carry it everywhere and it does not weigh in on my nose.

good reading glasses. the case did break after only just a couple of months of use but can still be used.

Got these in red. Had looked at the images, but it wasn't until they arrived today, that I was able to fully appreciate the thinness of these specs for myself. And in the case, they are actually less than 5mm thick. Be sure to look at all of the product images carefully. They really are as shown. I have a small face and generally find only certain opticians brands fit. But these seem to fit me fine, not too big & super lightweight. Worth mentioning that they don't have a normal style bridge, so don't have either pads on wire or thickened plastic pads, but they still seem comfy. They even seem to sit straight on my wonky ears. And I have not experienced any vision issues with the lenses, they seem to work fine in 1.5. The only thing I wish they didn't have is the blue light block, as this gives the lenses a slight yellow tint, that seems to exaggerate my under-eye bags! Also a bit pricey.

Brilliant product that saves on taking bulky glasses out when you just want to read a menu! Recommendation came from a friend and I’d happily recommend to anyone wanting a practical pair of glasses for a night out that fit in your pocket.

ThinOptics Reading Glasses, Extremely Disappointing The product is completely useless. The thin metal frame bends out of shape almost immediately, and the glasses look unattractive when worn. The arms warp so badly that you can’t even close the case properly. AND YOU CAN'T RETURN THEM I normally don’t write negative reviews, but this one is genuinely that bad.

Very slim glasses and case, yet feel very secure when on. Case seems hardwearing - one hinge pin did drop out but a pin with the shaft sl bent secured it brilliantly. Clarity of glasses good and they are as good as my prescription glasses. No more bulging pockets or broken glasses. Expensive for off the shelf readers but they do a job very well.

Nice small pair of glasses with a nice case! Only three stars because of slight yellow tint on the lenses.

Excelente opción para emergencias. Su portabilidad es maravillosa. No son para usar por largos periodos older tiempo pero sin lugar a dudas merece la pena comprarlos

Excellent glasses when travelling, or out with a tiny handbag, perfect for restaurants

It is too thin, which makes it look so weak, that it can broke any moment, it won't last long, and the second problem is that there is no possibility to return it

This is my second pair of ThinOptics glasses. These are very light and compact and the lens quality is excellent. I'm very happy with them and my wife has asked me to buy her a pair. A couple of things to note: 1) ThinOptics markets these as being able to be attached to the back of your smartphone. In reality, this isn't practical because the case is so big that it either exceeds the size of the smartphone or covers up the camera. These are really pocket or purse glasses. 2) The case is attractive and protects the glasses well. However, the case is a bit tricky to open because of the strong magnetic snap that keeps the case closed. I find myself fumbling around with it to get it open. As a result, they are not "fast" glasses that you can pop on your nose quickly. 3) While not uncomfortable, I would not use these these glasses for long periods as they are not the most comfortable reading glasses I have. They are great for shorter use periods.

I needed thin reading glasses to put in my clutch or purse when I go out. I ordered the red pair. Now that we have to carry so many extra items in these uncertain times (hand sanitizer, face masks) real estate is precious inside my purse. It's nice and thin and almost just as important - stylish. I'm ordering more for my other purses so I don't have to keep transferring it from purse to purse.
