Read Optics Folding Reading Glasses 1.5, Fold Up Frames in Metal, Compact & Pocket Sized in Black Case, Non Prescription Readers

The great things about these telescopic folding specs:1. They fold up to half the size of normal specs by hinging in the middle at the nose bridge and having telescoped extendable ear rests2. The hard-material, hinged case is well designed, very durable and small enough to fit in the front pocket of your jeans3. They are available in graded lens magnification from 1.0 to 2.5Limitations1. The folding-portability feature has a drawback in that the specs are so small they just perch onto your nose, so are OK for reading restaurant menus or small text on product labels in shops but not great for extended periods of use2. As you might expect, they are not so durable as full-size frames from your optometristAs I don’t need specs to see distance but only for reading small print, I carry a pair literally everywhere I go and find the pocket-size mega-convenient. People ask me about them all the time and ask where they can buy them.

After cataract surgery I needed some instant reading glasses, and these fit the bill very well. Neat and compact, with a clever folding mechanism. The lenses are good for the price, and I have no eyestrain after prolonged reading.

What a fantastic product. Great little reading glasses, that fold neatly away into a little hard case/carry case. Absolutely great for their intended purpose. Purchased the gunmetal grey, which is a good (fashionable) colour at the moment and they have not disappointed. Also very impressed with the telescopic arms. Brilliant for when travelling, to keep handy in your handbag or clutch bag (for ease of reading - wine lists and menus mostly!). Would not travel without now. I would highly recommend if you are a little on the blurry eye stage and need a little assistance. If I only had one little niggle, it would be that the nose pads are a little hard and not too comfy, that said, they sit very lightly on the bridge of the nose so are not heavy.

Bought these simply to have a set of glasses for travelling with when popping out to restaurant/pubs to read menu with. My normal prescription glasses and case are bit bulky, but not this product. 3in x 1.5in x 1in fit perfectly in my pocket. And you forget they are there as they are so unobtrusive.The look and feel of them is really quite cool. Like flipping open a zippo lighter only to find a set of specs inside. I'll never tire of opening and closing them! Wearing them so far has been OK as well. For reading I cannot complain, the 1.5x seems to suit my eyes well. So all in all a good little product.If I had to say there is a negative then it would simply be that it is difficult to open them without touching the glass, so need wiping over every time. But, hey, it's a minor price to pay for the convenience. All said, I love them. Thinking of buying another set just to leave in the car.

Handy small pair of glasses that fold into a small pocket size case. Bit fiddle at first getting the arms folded in the right order to get the glasses back into the case without forcing them, sort of a 50/50 getting the fold right first time but you quickly get used to right technique. They are for short use only as they will slip off easily but it's surprising when with a group of friends trying to read something that the odd out stretched hand reaches out for them. I like them a lot as they easily fit into my pocket or the wife's hand bag without complaint they have taken up too much room.

Flimsy and not worth the money. Be careful as they’re not eligible to be returned for a refund!!I’d suggest you just steer clear of them.

I bought these extremely compact pair of reading glasses to replace a lost pair of (almost identical) Foster Grants. Best point - they fold up into a box not much bigger than a chunky matchbox. Not-so-good points - (1) one of the tiny magnets that keep the box closed fell out of its moorings, and had to be re-glued in place.(2) unlike the Foster Grants that slid into the box neatly, the arms of these have to be bent slightly into position so they don't cross each other, otherwise the glasses won't fit in the box. Other than that, they do the job.

I bought a pair and they did the job amd I was happy with so I bought a second pair to keep in the car but unfortunately the second pair are rubbish. The frame is a little twisted which for occasional I could live with but one of the arms just drops back into itself so that it's difficult even getting them on! So to be charitable i'd say variable quality.
