I love these readers! I am 53 and had cataract surgery about 4 months ago. I have been waiting to get a new prescription from my eye doctor but have been unable to due to complications. I wanted a pair of glasses to take on vacation so I ordered these. They are perfect! I ordered 2 pair from another online company also so I compared side by side and the Readers.com glasses are much better and way less expensive. I will order again and definitely recommend to my family and friends.
I love these glasses with the larger frame and lens. Much better than grocery store glasses. I won't go back to those again!
Neither flimsy nor super-high quality frames....another reason for me to have bought more! Were the Bateses I bought a year and a half ago a little better quality than currently, or do I imagine so?
I had a favorite frame that is no longer available...these fit well and look almost as good on me. Bates is probably my go-to frame for a while.
I hate wearing reading glasses because most of them make you look like an old fogie. I had a pair just like these for a while but unfortunately they broke this year. I was so happy to find this pair on readers.com. Just what I wanted. rnI Have gotten so many compliments about how they look on me. rnI LOVE these glasses!!
I wanted plastic frames that I could put on top of my head occasionally without the specs catching in my hair. These glasses are the answer. They're well-made, durable, and the large lenses are so easy to read through. I'll buy this model again!
Whether it's the office or on stage with my band, I look good and see everything clearly. What more could I ask?
I bought these on a Saturday and they came in the mail that Wednesday. Absolutely a great pair of glasses at such a low price! These are better than my old glasses that I paid $100 for.
