Review on Unisex Gamma Ray Reading Glasses Bundle - 3 Pairs of Classic Readers for Men and Women: Optimize Your Search by Cheryl Guzman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The original design was much better than the new one

They fit well and feel comfortable. They even have what appear to be silicone nose pads. I have them in the next strength down to what I used before and they seem to be right. Edit added March 30, 2019: I bought a pair of these pairs about a year ago and have been very happy with them. Since I always leave them in different places around the house, I ordered 3 more pairs a few months ago. The original ones are like new, but the new ones are falling apart in the hinges. Noticing a few pairs failing, I compared the old to the new and found two major differences: 1. The old had a solid metal hinge and showed no signs of wear or breakage. The new ones are made of cheap plastic with screw design and don't hold up at all.2. The old ones came with very soft nose pads (feel like silicone). The new ones have much firmer, stiffer vinyl nose pads. Unfortunately, as I see more recent complaints about this and from my own observations, it appears that the poorly designed/manufactured nose pads have replaced the previous design. Also, the images are shown in a way that largely obscures the design of the hinge. Bottom line, the originals were 5 stars and the new designs were 2 stars. The new ones are only slightly better than the ones I can buy at the dollar store.
