ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses

I purchased the ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses specifically for reading in bed while lying on my side, and they have exceeded my expectations. Traditional glasses with arms always shift, press uncomfortably against my face, or even risk breaking when I rest my head on the pillow. These armless reading glasses solve all those problems beautifully.The design is simple yet genius. The flexible nose bridge keeps them comfortably in place, and without arms to get in the way, they stay put regardless of how I position myself. They are also incredibly lightweight, making them almost unnoticeable while wearing. The included Pod Case is slim and portable, so I can easily keep them on my nightstand or slip them into a pocket when traveling.If you’re someone who struggles with regular glasses shifting around while lying down, these are a game-changer. Highly recommend!

These reading glasses are amazing. The case fits on the back of your cell phone nicely and is about 1/8 of an inch thick, including the glasses. I think the glasses are about 1/16th of an inch thick if that, and super lightweight. They also grip your nose very well and will NOT fall off. I showed my mom and did a short video of me shaking my head vigorously in every direction and they stayed firmly in place, she was impressed too. They are very comfortable, and I tested them reading a pretty small font bible for about 3 hours and they did perfectly. HIGHLY recommended if you are tired of having to use your phone's camera every time you go into a restaurant in order to read the menu. These are very, very well done. They are so thin you can use them as a bookmark, they're worth buying.UPDATE: Still awesome, everyone asks where I got them when I use them. Absolutely fantastic product. Of Note, I've had mine a couple months now and did not experience any of the "easily scratchable" issues I've read of in some of the other reviews. Get the case so you can keep them on your cell phone, trust me.

One of the great inventions! The slim case fits on the back of a phone case and adds hardly any thickness. Still fits into a pocket. Now I'll always have a pair of quick grab readers with me without having to remember to bring proper ones or find a way to carry a pair of glasses without a purse. These aren't meant to be worn all the time or replace readers with arms. They're ready at hand to read menus, small print on labels in grocery stores, and even your phone. They stay securely in the case and the case stays securely on my phone case.

This is my second pair of ThinOptics. My first was the keychain version. I really like how portable they are, ensuring I will always have my reading glasses on me. They clip onto the nose well and stay put. I like the flat phone holder version better than the keychain one, but it needs some kind of tab or bump built into the plastic case to hold the glasses in better. The glasses want to slide out of the case too easily. I dropped my phone onto the carpet a couple times and the glasses came flying out. They also want to start sliding out while the phone is in my pocket.Edited to add: It is now several days later, and these glasses keep slipping out of their case. Argh! I replaced the case with a stretchy fabric credit card holder that sticks to the back of the phone. It holds the glasses very securely and is flatter.

I have this attached to the back of my phone case and it has been a life saver whether at the grocery story reading ingredients or tags at a retail store. I don't love wearing glasses and never found the need until my late 40's but its great to have them in a pinch when I need them which is more often than I care to admit. I was skeptical of them staying on my nose but that hasn't been an issue they are lightweight and just enough to get the job done. One of my most used and appreciated purchases.

These work fairly well - the trade-off in comfort is almost worth it for the convenience. These don't just pinch the nose, the pinchy part is sharp and, so, very uncomfortable. So, these are fine to use in a pinch, but not for extended periods ... more for reading a restaurant menu than reading a book.
