Title: Readers for serious readers
Review: They do look kinda dorky, but they’re sturdy, and the lenses are a real notch above any other OTC reader I have tried. They are really graduated from almost no power to max rated power, top to bottom. I have three pair in various powers. Higher power is excellent for shop work.

Title: The multifocal idea for ‘readers’ actually does work for these spectacles. No need to deal with 15 and 2.0 and 2.5 focal lengths
Review: To agree with earlier favorable reviews, my specific situation is this:Had cataract surgery early today (Aug 23, ’18) with (now) both eyes done “far” and thus, need for “readers” for close work.I ordered in advance, the 1.0 model of these items, and after just a 1/2 day of using them, I hope they don’t break at the frames, because….with the dilations wearing off, I can already see how my distance vision – say, flatscreen HD at about 8-10 feet – my vision in both eyes is almost as crisp as my (now) 20/20 vision in both eyes with my new intraocular lenses.And yes – the “multifocus” idea does work, even as my today’s surgical dilations wear off, in that my close vision is sharp, up to about 2-1/2 feet away and on out to the TV. I’m impressed, and I use a laptop on a chair-arm support to use the internet as we all do, and this makes it possible to watch TV and do the closer work (not REAL close, like 1 or 2 feet away) – do the closer work with ease of vision.Note: the farthest focus is at the top of the lens, and with the 1.0 mag I ordered, there is just slight magnification at the top of the lens. At the bottom it’s about a 2.0 focus requirement.Good product. If the frames DO break, I would consider buying two more pairs, until I tire of replacing them or buy prescription trifocals to make life easy. I wear this single pair of spex, constantly.I would add, now on Sept. 19, that fully recovered from cat surgery, I can read with one pair of these multifocals, up to one foot away; and for “far”, I can see clearly up to ten + feet away. Further, and there is slight magnification, so for say, driving, I don’t use anything over my eyes save perhaps for plain sunglesses; closer than a foot? I use a 2.0 or even a 2.5 for very close work. Great product!Second update: Uh oh! Now, on Sept 22, ’18, the hinges suddenly ? have begun to work loose from the frames, same as described in many earlier reviews. I’ll buy another two pairs, and if quality control not improved for this subsequent purchase, I’ll look for other brands. I LOVE these multifocals, as they work wonderfully, technically – but if the hinges continue to break, I’d recommend avoiding them. I guess I’m a glutton for punishment….

Title: Excellent glasses. Shipping package and glasses case need improvement.
Review: I bought these as a higher-strength replacement for the same Foster Grant reading glasses that I have now. They’re exactly as described, and I’m pleased with their appearance, performance, and comfort.I deducted a star because they were sent in a plastic envelope lined with small bubble-wrap. This provided minimal protection during shipping. Fortunately, they arrived in excellent condition, but I would have preferred a sturdier, recyclable small box.The fabric glasses case is too small. It matches the frame width and height, but there isn’t enough material to accommodate the depth of the closed temples / arms. I’m not comfortable jamming the glasses into it. I should not have to buy a separate case that fits properly because of a design defect.

Title: Best Readers
Review: Once I discovered these multifocus readers, it changed my life. I use a computer at work and to be able to read something and look up at the screen without having to take my readers off was a huge change. In addition, these look nice. I’ve actually had people ask where I got my glasses. They are READERS! I now have a pair in my car, at home, by my bed, and at my office. The only thing that is a disappointment is taht one of the frame hinges breaks about once every 3 to 6 months.

Title: Reduced quality compared to previous years
Review: I bought these exact same glasses 2 years ago and they were fantastic. Very comfortable, good quality plastics, nice finish, and solid hinges. I needed a second pair so I thought I’d buy the same ones. This time around, the quality has definitely dropped. The plastic is poorly finished, the arms are crooked out of the box, the hinges are loose and wiggly. The previous arms had a wire in them to help reinforce their shape, but the new ones don’t have the wire. Foster Grant is obviously trying to save some money on their production, but you will notice the poor quality. I paid about $30, I would say these are no better than $10 gas station reading glasses.

Title: Worth Every Penny and More
Review: Glasses arrived well packaged, are exactly as described, are sturdier than my RX glasses, and most importantly, I can now see!Glasses arrived in an Amazon box, packaged in bubble wrap, plastic wrap and one arm protector.Thanks to the reviews, I received exactly what I was expecting in reference to color, size and quality of the lens.I ordered the 3.75, which is perfect for me. The “progressive” feature is better than my Lens Crafters RX Glasses, which were approx. 10X the cost. Of course, a quality exam, quality lens, tints and frames with structural integrity is my first choice, but when I lose them or want multiple pairs the Foster Grant(s) are a great substitute.The noise bridge is slightly large for my little noise, but not worth complaining since one can not expect a custom fit.Thanks to other’s reviews I believe I selected exactly what I needed and would definitely recommend. With Amazon’s 30 day return policy worth giving them a try.

Title: Sturdy, good reading glasses
Review: If you’re looking for great glasses for sitting at the computer to work, these are those. However, the “distance” lens is not clear. I find it difficult to walk around and talk to people because the distance is blurry.

Review: I really like these glasses, but I have to say after buying quite a few pairs they always seem to break easily.

Review: Delivery was slow; I hadn’t noticed they were coming from the USA.But they look good – classic Foster Grants – and they are great for close work such as reading and further away reading when working on a computer screen.Some Varifocals can take a little time to get used to; these didn’t. Highly recommended!
