Customers find these reading glasses to be of good quality with a clever folding mechanism that stores flat in the case.

I love these. compact, comfortable. they eventually break. but ill get another pair when they do. dont slide down your nose like some other foldables Read more
Love these reading glasses! They fold flat when you close the hard sided flat case - and take up hardly any room in your purse! Read more
I love how thin they are in the case, it's makes them easy to carry without taking up much space. I've worn this model of readers for several years and they've changed the design slightly, but not for the better in my opinion. I don't like the new style of the nose pads, they need adjusting to fit better and are not as comfortable as the old style. The case has issues too, all of them, old and new, the hinge pins work their way out of the case and are easily lost, making the system pointless as the case is integral to the folding function. I found I could replace the pins with model aircraft wire from the hobby shop and put a drop of epoxy on the end to keep it in place. The case also has a rubberized coating on the outside that does not hold up to continued use and gets tacky feeling after a while. I really like the idea of these, but I will try a pair of ThinOptics readers next time to see if I like them better. Read more
The glasses & lenses are a high quality. As much as I beat on the glasses, they continue to be scratch-free and frames stay like new. Read more
When I got to the point that I started having to read menus with the magnifier app on my phone, I decided I needed to do something about it. Carrying regular readers is annoying. These fold flat in the hard case and I can carry them all the time. They pop open out of the case and I can put them on without having to unfold them like other compact readers I have seen. Always having a pair of these with me has been a huge improvement and greatly reduces so many frustrations related to aging eyes. I now own several pairs of these so I have backups. My one warning is they aren’t great for wearing while actively doing something because they won’t stay on your head if you are active while looking down, so you’ll want something more traditional for working. They are fine for reading, but when I’ve been doing something like looking into the engine while working on my car they gradually fall off. However, if you want readers you can pop on in a moment for convenience no matter where you are these are fantastic! Read more
This is the second pair of this glasses and both of them had the right ear piece disconnected and laying in front of the case..... I took them to my Optometrist and he would not touch them, he said he didn't have the tools to try and repair them. I then called Forster Grant and was told because I bought them from Amazon they would not be able to give me a replacement, I must try and get Amazon to do something......... so far NOTHING....... I really like them and the nose piece coming from the bottom makes them so much better fitting.. That I liked, but don't like to payout almost 50$ for 2 broken sets. Read more
