TruVision Readers 9509 Reading Glasses 1/3 PK, Men and Women +1.00-4.00

I don't normally use reading glasses. I've got a book I'm about to start that has really small print. I can read it, but it's a bit annoying so I though magnification might help. I got the 1.0 version of these and they work as I hoped. They give just a bit of magnification while still holding the book at a natural reading distance. I don't know if lenses are polarized, but they seem to make the text on the page crisper and maybe even a bit darker. They see really well made. A good weight to them. The lenses are very clear and consistent and the frames feel very sturdy. I'm happy with them. The only thing that would change this review is if they break down quickly in which case I'll update the review.

Item description led me to believe these glasses were worth trying -- and the seller did not disappoint. Better quality and better price than those carded ones at the local all-mart store. I was prompted here to rate these for their "Light weight," "Comfort," and "Sturdiness" qualities. I gave them 5 stars for sturdiness and left the others blank, even though I would like to rate them highly in those other areas. Here are my reasons. The glasses *are* light weight, if not quite as feather-weight as some others I have had -- but I consider that a GOOD thing, because the comfort of those lighter glasses came at the cost of quality; all of them broke or became bent way too easily. These, being made of sturdier materials , may be ever so slightly less lightweight, but I view that as a huge plus. I expect these to last much longer than the last few cheapies I bought at allmart. As for comfort, I like the spring-loaded temples -- and the smoothness of those plastic pieces that rest on and behind your ears. I have had other glasses with very slight ridges on the ends (probably due to the molding process), which can become irritating with long periods of wear These do not suffer from that. Nice and smooth. Yet, I cannot give them an honest rating for comfort because they are just a tad bit too small for me. That won't stop me from wearing them, though, because in every other way, I really like these glasses (though I would prefer the lenses were slightly larger, too). I just won't wear them for hours on end; I will need to find larger glasses -- hopefully from *this seller* -- for long reading sessions. Whatever shortcomings I mentioned, those are on me. I don't know what size glasses I need for my large skull, but I'm learning. Also, take a good look at the lens size. I suspect that the fit and lens size will be fine for most people -- and for those people, I think they would be happy with these glasses.

Better quality than expected. Good clear lens and sturdy frame.

Solid metal construction. No lens distortion. Stylish. Can't say enough good things about them. I've bought multiple pairs. I highly recommend these reading glasses.

Nice design, good looking, light weight, good fit,and extremely clear with no fuzz or glare. Great price, too.

Would always buy Foster Grant readers. These are much better, Great quality and very steady construction. Will be buying these again. Highly Recommend.

Worth the cost

Yes, I really like these frame lists on the bottom\nWearing them right now to see
