What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
These are ready-made reading glasses in a classic black plastic frame. They help with reading small print up close, such as labels, menus, or a book. The temples (the arms that sit over your ears) have spring hinges, so they flex outward a little when you put them on and take them off. They come in strengths from +1.00 to +2.50, and you choose the strength when you order. Because they are over-the-counter readers, they are a simple fit for everyday close-up reading. They are not a replacement for an eye exam or a prescription.
