Rimless Concierge Tube Reader, Silver/Matte Silver, 1.00

With my eyes getting worse as I get older I have found myself struggling to read menus in dark restaurants, or reading a book on the many planes I ride each year. My wife bought me a pair of these glasses about 2.5 years ago as a Christmas gift and I carried them with me all the time. They are perfect for reading those menus, or on the plane when I am reading a book. They cover about 1/2 of a page and can be taken anywhere in your pocket. When I use them in meetings, it is very easy to look over the top of them at others around the table and then back down at the papers I am reading.I still have the first pair of glasses, but the case that came with them was damaged while carrying it in my computer bag and now wont stay closed. I have put that pair in the kitchen drawer so that my wife and I can use them to read recipes, or baking instructions on the back of products. The new pair that I bought has a 2 piece storage case that should not break in my computer bag. It appears to be made of a sturdier material than the original plastic case with flip top, but does require 2 hands to get the top off and pull out the glasses (old ones I could remove by flipping the top and grabbing while still in my pocket).If you have the need for a small pair of portable reading glasses that fit easily in your pocket or purse, these are a good option.
