Having worn prescription eyeglasses most my life, I find these glasses serve me well as a back-up pair. My older Brother, 65 I think, needs Corrected Lenses, but really needs reading glasses. After trying these he was mildly impressed; which is saying a lot for him. I like the fact that you can focus each eye individually. I don't like that they remind me of bifocals and I don't think they would be safe for driving or as a replacement for Prescribed eye wear. Overall, Good for when the screen is a little too far away or to read a map or an article. Seem well made and durable. Worth the price to try.

While the glasses adjust for reading they cannot be adjusted for TV viewing for the person I purchased them for. They may work for some for both reading and TV viewing but definitely not for everyone. They do adjust easily just not enough for viewing the television. This is why I would not recommend it. If someone just needs them for reading you would be able to adjust them according to your reading without the expense of buying reading glasses and they appear to have better adjustment for reading than just buying a set pair of over the counter reading glasses because of the fine tuning available between the two sides of the glasses. If they had worked for both TV and reading I would have given them a better review. It was nice that they came with a case for keeping them safe but they still didn't live up to the expectation of being able to use them for reading and viewing television.Read full review

The glasses do work, and only enough to increase the magnification power to (as far as I can tell from use, not scientific measurements) only about 1.5 or 2.0. Many people with eyes requiring different levels of magnification also require higher magnification powers than these glasses produce. All it is is plastic in front of plastic, with a little rolling adjustment rod to "scoot" each lens away from each other. At best, a tiny effect. At worst, a complete waste of time and ($20.00!) money.

My experience with these glass is NOT good and is as follows: 1] These glasses gather and display a lot of the ambient light into the lenses. This produces reflective bright spots visible in the lenses [especially when watching TV in the day time]. 2] When using these glasses outside the focused field of view is very small. 3] I would never buy another pair of these glasses ... In my opinion they are a complete waste of my $ 4] Stick with you Dollar Store "reader" glasses.

Bought two pair of these, one for watching TV and one for reading. They're very cheaply made, and will likely break and scratch easily if you're not very careful, but they do the job for both tasks. Field of vision is pretty narrow, so you wouldn't want to try using these to drive (they advise against that anyway). Also, glare is a bit of a problem when watching TV, especially at night, but you kind of get used to it. All in all, a good value for the price. I would purchase again.
