Review: Perfect pocket glasses for going out. - Use these for going out so I don’t have to bring my bulky prescription glasses. Easily fit in any pocket and do get a lot of wows because they are so compact. Bought 1.5s which are just under my actual prescription to avoid the magnifying glass effect of using something too strong. Optical clarity is actually better than my proper reading glasses from Specsavers which is a bit nuts. Bottom line am delighted oh these, used them all the time going out and these make reading menus in dark restaurants actually possible again.
Review: Tough, light, stylish, comfortable, magnetic - perfect!! - I’ve bought loads of reading glasses so was a little wary of the price of these, but took the plunge. They are fantastic, case is metal and bombproof, mine is dented battered from my work in construction but the glasses are still perfectly protected. The glasses are robust, comfortable and the lenses great and scratch resistant. Would definitely buy these again without hesitation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light, comfortable, very thin. Dont sit on them
*by S***A on 21 June 2025*

Have a friend who travels much and swears by these. I fould the lenses good, much clearer than the £2 ones I use and leave in every room in the house. They are very thin and light, stay on well ( havnt tried the armless pince nez ones). Wouldnt want to sit on them. Useful reading on plane/ train as occupy so little space to carry on
