ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses

I love these
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.

Perfect Solution for Reading in Bed!
I purchased the ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses specifically for reading in bed while lying on my side, and they have exceeded my expectations. Traditional glasses with arms always shift, press uncomfortably against my face, or even risk breaking when I rest my head on the pillow. These armless reading glasses solve all those problems beautifully.The design is simple yet genius. The flexible nose bridge keeps them comfortably in place, and without arms to get in the way, they stay put regardless of how I position myself. They are also incredibly lightweight, making them almost unnoticeable while wearing. The included Pod Case is slim and portable, so I can easily keep them on my nightstand or slip them into a pocket when traveling.If you’re someone who struggles with regular glasses shifting around while lying down, these are a game-changer. Highly recommend!

The glasses are great, the case is not.
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.

One of my most practical and appreciated purchases
I have this attached to the back of my phone case and it has been a life saver whether at the grocery story reading ingredients or tags at a retail store. I don't love wearing glasses and never found the need until my late 40's but its great to have them in a pinch when I need them which is more often than I care to admit. I was skeptical of them staying on my nose but that hasn't been an issue they are lightweight and just enough to get the job done. One of my most used and appreciated purchases.

DOWNGRADED: Not convinced of long term value - WAS: Worth the money for the convenience
Purchased 3/6/25: A bit pricey for what is low magnification plastic lenses, but the form factor and storage case stuck to the back of my phone make them much easier to carry and have with me when I need them. Worth the money for the convenience.Update 4/25/25: The glasses have begun slipping out of the case as I move my phone in and out of my pocket and the plastic of the case has started to crack, making the problem worse. I added a piece of packing tape to address the crack while I figure out what to do. Also, dust and lint from my pocket gets all over the lenses meaning that I need to clean them every time I pull them out.I adjusted my review from 5 to 3 stars down to 3 due to durability concerns impacting long term value.
