Review on Eyekepper Small Oval Round Reading Glasses Vintage Mini Reader Eyeglasses For Men Women Reading With Spring Hinges Tortoise Frame +1.50 by Eric Amiradaki

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too narrow for my face, eyes, and they smell like duplicate form paper. Why?

These are lightweight, look about like what's pictured, but don't mistake the gold-looking detail on the side for metal. It's embossed plastic. They're OK, about what you'd expect in cheap glasses.Unfortunately, they appear to be made for people with narrower-set eyes than mine. It's not a PD (pupil distance) problem per se - they mainly look silly on me from being closer-set than my eyes. I can see through 'em OK.Probably the worst thing is the smell. Why do eyeglasses have a smell? They're just above my nose, and they smell like 3-part carbonless forms, like duplicate cash-register receipts. Did nobody think "I know! Why don't we make 'em smell like nothing, just like other glasses? This carbonless carbon paper smell thing.probably not going to catch on." Srsly.
