Review on Reading Glasses Rimless Lightweight Comfort by Nazrul Boscan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent economic industrial design, inexpensive but not "cheap ".

These are intrepid reading glasses with a very simple design, consisting of a one-piece nose bridge and AMD lenses, two earpieces with molded-in spring-loaded hinge mechanisms, each attached to the lens with a screw secured by two retaining arms built into the lens cross member. Now that I have many readers, these are the most thoughtful I have found. I've only had them recently so my main questions would be how strong is the plastic they are made of and how scratch resistant the lenses are. Since the lenses and nose pads are integrated in one unit, there is nothing to complain about here apart from the adjustment option. The nose pads are widely spaced so they probably won't be small on most faces, but in many cases you'll need to attach rods to the nose pads to adjust them to the bridge of your nose. I used silicone pads which I bought in bulk from Revain and they adhere well to the bridge of my nose. Overall, they are lightweight, almost invisible to the eye, and appear almost reliable at minimal cost. They have just enough basic style to look good in a minimalist style. I look forward to buying more. Four stars instead of five because they sacrifice adjustability for the flexibility of plastic earcups that trade strength for ductility.
