Review on Calabria Reading Glasses - 718 Flexie: Clear Vision and Maximum Flexibility by Scott Adaymiln

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for people with broad heads

I use readers for close work and of course reading. I also buy different power products for different tasks like computer work, sewing and reading. The problem is usually that I have a wide head and most readers get a headache from the sides because they are narrow. Flexes are characterized by the fact that the plastic that makes up the frame and arms is extremely flexible. The frame nestles gently against the face and head. It's much more comfortable than even frames with spring-loaded hinges on the temples. In addition, these frames and lenses are light as a feather. The lenses are perfect and have no distortion. The plastic frame has a matte finish and this particular style is attractive and suitable for most faces. They also come with a really nice matte plastic case that makes it easy to carry the glasses in your purse without fear of scratching the lenses. There are so many that I am ordering two more pairs. UPDATE: 1/31/2015 Here they are, almost a year and a half later, and these reading glasses remain my favorite and I use them every day. I stopped buying Dollar Store readers because they need to be replaced so often that they end up being a lot more expensive (and less convenient) than those flexies. If you rely on readers, these are the best I've ever had.

Pros
  • Annual trial
Cons
  • skinny
