Review on Linno Spring Hinges Dark Blue Wood Pattern Reading Glasses: Stylish Eyewear for Men by Teresa Quinney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

optically good; for very large heads

I'm lucky enough to be able to wear over-the-counter reading glasses instead of regular reading glasses, and there are over-the-counter glasses throughout the house because that's how I drive. I have ordered many pairs from Revain and of course I have an opinion as to which are good and which are not. I have a 3.0 here, which is stronger than I need, but a strength I've found useful when my eyes are tired or when shooting close-ups. (It's hard for me to walk with 3.0 glasses, although it works with 2.0 glasses.) They're optically good, which of course is one of the most important qualities in reading glasses. I am completely satisfied with the look. It's also nice to have spring-loaded temples. They are designed for very large heads. My head is about 24 inches and I wear an XXL hat size. To my surprise, they are too big for my head and keep slipping off my nose. (This is the first time I've read year-old reading glasses.) So for a smaller or even full-sized head, I wouldn't recommend these. I'll try to isolate and match the frame like lenscrafters do. Very good reading glasses.

Pros
  • Robust hinges. The glasses have strong temples with strong loops, so they fit every face.
Cons
