Review on Vintage Prescription Reading Glasses 👓 by Firmoo: Enhancing Clarity and Style by Daniel Spear

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If it hurts, just adjust the attachment!

I never write reviews but I wanted to share what I found out about these glasses because I read some reviews about them hurting me which got me thinking. DO NOT HESITATE as this can be completely avoided! First, these glasses are very light, so I was very surprised when I felt a sharp pain in my nose about an hour after wearing them. Upon closer inspection, I found that this was because the arc's angle was such that only the sharp lower tips touched my nose. Fitting was easy and I was able to wear the glasses for the rest of the day with no issues or pain! Other things to note: - tortoise shell pattern tips - a nice touch compared to similar glasses that are all gold - comes with extra screws and a small tool to attach it if needed - the nose piece is fully adjustable (ideal for people with flat noses like me!) - I have a fairly wide face and it still looks oversized - I didn't realize that the glasses are actually very slightly yellow tinted, but that's not noticeable when wearing them. This makes everything appear slightly sepia, which is different from other types of blue light blocking glasses that are transparent. My brother tried the glasses on and really liked the yellow tint (so much so that he didn't want to give them to me) so that might be a plus for some! At certain angles it reflects inwards and affects the view a bit, but it's nothing serious
