ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses

Okay so I'm one of those people who need glasses but as I use different strengths for different things, I really don't want to get prescription glasses. And I have a problem with forgetting to carry a pair of glasses when I go out but I never forget to bring my cell phone as I carry it on my pants waistband so having a pair of thin glasses that I can attach to my cell is great for me. They're lightweight and seem to be pretty sturdy for what they are. And if they ever break, I'll just get another pair as I really love them. I haven't had any problem with the case coming off my cell case and if it ever does come off then I'll just use a Command strip to put it right back on. The strength is 2.50x and it is just as good as the regular 2.50x glasses I have so that's good about it. I haven't had any scratches show up on the glasses so they seem pretty well made.

Great pair of readers and pocket friendly. So thin you could leave them in your book as a bookmark. Even in the case.

Fits nicely on the back of your phone. Great for quick reads like menus and bar tabs!

I agree with other reviewers who have pointed out that the hard plastic case scratches the lenses. Ideally it should have a very thin soft inner lining of some sort. It's either just a not-thought-out design or the company wants you to replace the glasses more often than you normally would, which is not kosher. Anyway I tossed an earlier pair (they are a backup in case I forget my glasses, not for daily use) because the nose bridge piece had broken and the lenses were so scratched they were worthless. Still, the concept behind the glasses is worth 4 stars.This time as can be seen in the photos I've cut a sleeve out of standard kitchen parchment paper which is about the thinnest paper out there (the notch is because there's a stabilizing ridge inside the plastic sleeve) and it works well, it takes a few more seconds to insert it and remove it and I can live with that if the lenses don't scratch.

Very convenient for business travel - I take them where ever I go.

Sure, it's a novel idea so enjoy it while you can as both the glasses and case break so easily. The glasses have 2 fail points. One is they quickly lose rigidity as you're constantly bending them to place back in case. The second fail point is the nose pad area deteriorates quickly and they eventually start sliding off your nose.And that's just the glasses, the case cracks just by looking at it.But seriously, don't fall in love with this product or you'll find yourself robbing banks just to support your replacement habit...

Love these little readers so much. Functional, practical, and easy to carry.

These are fabulous however they do tend to scratch. Need a better way to store them with the phone.
