mincl Transition Photochromic Bifocal Reading Glasses for Mens and Womens,Square Clear UV Protection Sunglasses Readers 0~+4

I purchased these bifocal UV blocking transition photochromic "sunglasses" simultaneously with bifocal blue blocking bifocals (LKEYE brand) to better use with my computer (56" monitor). I had previously purchased a pair of PROGRESSIVE blue light blocking reading glasses (LKEYE brand) which proved to be difficult to use with a very , very narrow zone of uncorrected vision (0.0 D) through the top most portion of the lens. To place this in perspective, I'm a 82yo male, post cataract surgery (3 months now), slowly adjusting to new visual parameters. I'm at my computer screen many hours per day and have found the blue light (from the monitor) fatigues and "burns" my eyes. Blue blocking lens (as well as UV blocking sunglasses really help ease the eye strain and discomfort - even with built in monitor protection to lessen the blue light. I strongly disagree with some posted reviews of these Mincl glasses. The bifocal and upper uncorrected (0.0D) lens are quite clear without distortion or peripheral aberration. The transition lens do not darken as much as suggested in the online product photo and do not directly block bright sunlight as much as dedicated polarizing sunglasses, but they definitely "take the edge off" bright sunlight and allow one to read very comfortably in moderately bright sunlight. I believe that a pair of dedicated polarizing sunglasses are needed for comfortable, safe driving or outdoor activities such as playing tennis or sailing. These glasses DO allow one to drive in sunlight and comfortably look down to read instrument gauges and the speedometer - something I could not do well without a bifocal capability. My post surgical implants give me 20/20 vision but make reading the instrument panel very fuzzy. The frames are light, stylish and quite strong. The T90 frame is more flexible and stronger than acetate and somewhat antibacterial as well! Hinges are not spring loaded (unfortunately). The glasses are probably higher priced viv-a-vis many others sold at Amazon (eg. the LKEYE bifocal readers I also purchased are much cheaper but the uncorrected portions of those lens yield slight distortion and do not have photochromic transition protection). Summary: excellent glasses at a fair price with a lovely (almost elegant) eyeglass case and a no scratch lens wipe.

I bought two styles from this same company and other than looks were very equivalent. The glasses look nice. While the frames felt somewhat flimsy, they are light weight. The lenses are as advertised. They did turn dark in sunlight, not quite as dark as is suggested by their pictures, but they did change. The top area of the lens is clear with no distortion and I can see equally well with the glasses on or off. There is a very distinct blurry section between the clear and magnified area. Having never worn regular bifocals before, I don't know if this was any better or worse. The magnified area is not easily seen, so when wearing them, other people probably won't notice that they are bifocals. For me I think these will work fine for around the house or driving to see at a distance and also see the dash or my phone.

I need reading glasses to read menus and other things in small print, and have grown tired of fumbling to change back and forth from sun glasses to reading glass when dining outdoors or entering/leaving a building on a sunny day. These transitional lens bifocals are simply the best. While they don't darken as much as my regular sunglasses (no transitional lenses do), they provided some UV protection and the bifocal magnified portion means that I no longer have to carry a separate pair of reading glasses and switch in order to read a menu, sign-in at a building reception desk, etc. I disagree with the negative reviews. You need to have realistic expectations. They are not as dark as regular sunglasses but they serve my purpose of being able to wear the same pair of glasses when moving between indoor and outdoors, and being able to read through the bifocal portion. Also, the unisex frames are attractive and I've received a number of compliments on them.

The metal frame seems of good quality and sturdy. The glasses come in a nice semi rigid case with a cleaning cloth. However, after only about a week of use, one of the small screws that hold the arm on, came out of the left side. I had to try and find a replacement screw and when I did it was too long. But I had to use it because I really needed to use these glasses on a regular basis. Also, the lenses do in fact become darker in the sun but mostly for those viewing them opposite me. The lenses dont seem to block much of the brightness from the sun from my eyes at all. Lastly, the part of the lenses that are not supposed to be a bifocal (just glass) are very slightly off too. Also, the paint on the frame has started to wear off after only 2 weeks. Overall not bad I expected better.

Did not darken at all.

Perfect readers on the bottom and perfectly clear on top.

Being able to look through your glasses and then look down to read or observe up close make these readers a keeper for those who see great far but not up close. Great sturdy tinting reader bifocal glasses for less than $30 is fantastic. How much have you paid for scripted glasses to be transition to sun glasses? 3 figures easy!

I tried dozens of combo readers with transition lenses. These had the right mix of everything I tried many progressive readers and bifocals in this test. I was going on vacation and now I need cheaters for menus and was going to sunny Greece. I would be going back and forth between the beach and town but didn't want to carry a pair of sunglasses AND a pair of cheaters. I liked that there's less of an interruption with the progressives but the 100% area at the top was always smaller than the bifocals. The magnifying area of the bifocals gets in the way sometimes especially going down stairs but in the end chose the bifocals because they did both near and far all around better. I like the style and build quality of these compared to the rest I tried and these lenses got the darkest of all those I tried..... They STILL don't get as dark as more expensive ones over tried but I wanted an inexpensive pair that I would cry about if they got lost in the ocean.

comme lunette pour aller dehors c'Est très bien, et pas obliger de cahnger de lunette interieur/Exterieur. le seul petit probleme est l'ajustement pour qu'elle tombe horizontalalement versus mes soucils....

Sirven bien para lo necesario, solo que no se oscurecen tan rápido y no lo suficientemente.

Cómo se observa en la fotografía, no son lentes para leer de aumento progresivo. Son bifocales tradicionales, que además tienen la sección del lente con aumento desalineadas. Los intenté devolver, pero la aplicación me dijo que me reembolsan sin que yo los devuelva. Intenté usarlos un poco más, pero son totalmente incómodos. Aún siendo gratis se irán a la basura. Lógicamente tampoco son fotocrómicos, pero eso ya era demasiado pedir.

Tienen muy buena calidad, me gustaron mucho además de un precio muy económico .

muy padres y calidad
