2 Pack Multifocus Progressive Reading Glasses Men, Blue Light No Line Bifocal Readers (for Mid-Near Range 3ft)

Work great after cataract/lens implant surgery.
Have worn progressive lenses for many years without a problem. Bought these after cataract/lens implant surgery. Implants are for distance so I only need readers. Had regular readers but finding I constantly have to pull readers off or lower them to read at distance. These no line progressives on initial use with a computer are working great. If your in same situation (cataract/lens surgery) the progressive readers are the way to go instead of the bifocal style. The bifocal style that I purchased have what looks like a plasticstrip glued to the lens for the reader portion. While the bifocal sunglasses style works for driving I think the progressives are superior for anything else.

Great for testing out progressive lenses
I got these at the advice of my optometrist – I don’t truly need progressives or anything but reading/computer glasses right now, but I tried an expensive pair of custom made progressives before and I couldn’t use them. They ended up being a multiple-hundred-dollar donation to a charity.That was a few years ago, so she suggested buying some of the less custom made progressives to try it out and see if my eyes could get used to them. After some time wearing them I decided I still didn’t need custom progressive lenses, but I’m glad we did this exercise; I’d be willing to try it out again in a year or two and one day might move to them. For now my non-reading/computer vision is still good enough that I really only need dedicated reading/computer glasses and nothing else.All that doesn’t take away from the quality of these glasses or their usefulness – this $20 set of glasses saved me a couple hundred dollars in getting one custom presciption pair of progressives.They seem to be well made and the difference between the distance/computer/reader seemed OK, but progressives just aren’t for me – just yet.

Adequate 2.0 diopter reading glasses
I’m glad they said “hidden spring hinge” because when I looked for the spring hinge, I couldn’t find it. I’m still skeptical, since the chamber the spring would be hiding it in quite small.They are certainly bifocal with no line. I find their description of the 3.0 diopter lens I purchased confusing. For close work, reading, I find the 3.0 lenses work best. For computer work, a little further away, my 1.75 lenses work best. It’s not a problem of magnification; the objects are not looking larger. The preferred diopter is a function of age (with close vision decreasing as you get older) and distance (with readability decreasing as the object gets closer). There’s the old joke that my eyes aren’t getting worse; my arms are getting shorter. I have 20/20 vision, so objects at 20 feet are pretty clear. It’s stuff that’s closer where I have a problem. It would be nice to not have to switch glasses.Graduated lenses would be a good idea. Graduated low profile lenses, so you can see over them when looking 20 feet away, would be a very good idea. These lenses have a pretty low profile.I do find it difficult to read through the 3.0 diopter area of this product. Since it is the bottom of the lens, I would need to be looking down through the glasses. Or lifting the glasses off my nose so that I can see through the 3.0 diopter area.I like the idea, but not the implementation. In practice, these would be perfectly good 2.0 diopter reading glasses.

Fine way to test out Progressives
I’ve worn progressives before, so I found these easy to adjust to. At such a low price for two pair, this is a great way for you to see if progressives are right for you. I also like the stylish look of the lightweight metallic frames, with no visible hinges. You get two pair for this price, say, one for the office and one for reading at night. On an anecdotal note, these arrived just in time for me to remove a tiny splinter in my finger that I absolutely could not locate clearly without magnification.
