BEISON Half Moon Readers Half Rimless Reading Glasses

Product Information

Be ready for trial and error. If you’re new to readers, it’s perfectly normal to have to try a few strengths before finding the magnification that’s right for you, Dr. Raviv says. He recommends starting with a +1 pair and moving up (or down) until it feels right. The best way to figure it out, though, is with an eye exam, “just to make sure we’re not missing something,” he explains. For those who enjoy a more customized fit, you really can’t go wrong with the Warby Parker Esme Glasses. Not only do they look super luxe, but they are essentially made to fit your face, which is a real plus if you need a size or width that is outside of the norm. Additionally, half-moon glasses are often a preferred form of reading glasses for men due to their lightweight and compact nature. They are pretty convenient in terms of carrying and use.

Single-vision reading glasses give you clarity at one range of distance but depending on their strength, you may not be able to see far or on a computer. Bifocal glasses are a traditional design correcting vision for two focal distances. The top part of the lens aids distance vision, while the lower portion is tailored for near vision, typically at about 16 inches, says Inna Lazar, OD, founder of Greenwich Eye Care and Dry Eye Spa.Amomoma AM6003 Reading Glasses: These reading glasses offer a great price and style, but our reviewer did not feel they measured up as reading glasses. They would work for occasional computer work, but for more tedious tasks, they fall short. Balance affordability with durability. “You can get readers literally at the dollar store, and they work fine,” Dr. Raviv explains, but they’re most likely made of plastic, and they might not hold up as long as pricier ones. “Poorly made lenses can cause you to have a distorted view through the lens,” says Dr. Hilal-Campo. So if you want to invest in a quality pair, it’s best to buy them from a credible glasses vendor; your ophthalmologist or optometrist can help, she says. The American Academy of Ophthalmology ( AAO) recommends opting for metal frames and lenses with anti-scratch, anti-reflective, and UV-protective coatings, which come with higher price tags.

Gray Glasses For Men & Women Gray Glasses frames is one of the newer colors common in eyewear. They came to fame in the 1950s and 1960s, after the technological advances in plastic manufacturing during WW2 gave way to the mass availability of plastics as easy an easy to wokr with material. Given its classic and conservative tone it would be easy to imagine gray eyeglass frames having been around for centuries, as is the case with tortoiseshell glasses. In that way gray eye glasses frames perfectly balance the old and the new, tradition and progress. Gray eyeglass frames are available in all materials, the most popular being acetate and metal. Gray frames work well for both men and women. We also offer a wide variety of gray sunglasses frames. Be it for for prescription lenses or sunglasses, grey frames are perfect for any wardrobe.Progressive lenses, also known as multifocal lenses, are ideal for individuals who require correction for both near and distance vision, Dr. Hogue says. They eliminate the need for multiple pairs of glasses and provide a seamless transition between different distances. If you wear reading glasses primarily when using a computer, you will likely need a lower power than when reading a book or magazine. The longer the viewing distance, the less reading glasses power is needed for comfortable vision, Ronald Benner, OD, president of the American Optometric Association, says. Because progressive lenses have multiple prescriptions built into the lens and a gradual change in prescription from the top to bottom, it is much easier to adapt to progressive lenses, Dr. Benner adds. Manufacturers have developed ways to maximize the usable visual portion of the lens and minimize the distortion in the lens.
