TruVision ReadersReading Glasses - 9509 HP -VP3-Gunmetal-3.00

But hey I kept them. They're small enough to just have in your pocket. And hell I am an old man.

After my cataract surgeries, my doc told me that off-the-shelf reading glasses would be all that I need. This is good for me because prescription glasses last maybe last two-three months before I destroy them. I started buying top shelf readers at $16 each but they would last only a month....then I found these. With my nasty wear & tear, these also last a month but they fit better and cost a tiny fraction of the "Titanium" glasses.

I bought a couple sets of these to replace my 1.5's. I liked that they came in their own pouch but quickly realized they're not very durable. They scratch easily and one has a chip in it already. My previous glasses lasted more than five years and only had two pairs of those. I had to replace them with a stronger 2.0. I bought two sets because I forget where I leave them. I wouldn't recommend them.

I've owned 6 pair of these glasses. I am not impressed with their durability. The plastic ear pieces come loose very easily and they can slide along the temple piece. The lenses also chip very easily and it's always right next to where the frame touches the lens. The chips are almost always on the top of the lens too.Of the last 6 pair that I bought, all 6 of them have suffered from lens chipping. They are readers so since I don't need them all the time, I keep the glasses in a shirt pocket when I am not wearing them. That said, I'm not hard on the glasses. I work in and office so when I do set them down it's on a desk. At home, when I set them down it's on my computer desk or my nightstand.The price is low but so is the quality and you get what you pay for. Think I'll spend a few more bucks and get some better quality readers.

I picked up a higher set for fine work I do sometimes. It helped me see really small things. I was using glasses I picked up from WISH.com.. They were plastic and cheap (what do you expect for $3 shipped?) after a few months those just fell apart, I gave these a shot, nice lenses, frames are solid and they are over all fairly good for the price.The ones I picked up was this one, a 2.0 just for general reading. One of the nose pieces were missing but, I emailed the company to see if they can provide a replacement. Over all the 2 others are perfectly fine.I will update the review to a 5 star if they can solve the problem with out a return.Edit: seller said they would send me a replacement set. Seller send a replacement set. updated review.
