I wear readers quite a bit and like to have several pair at my fingertips. These two pairs of glasses fit well and the lenses are nice and sturdy. I really like them, however, the pair I received are both full tortoiseshell patterned glasses, not a solid color on the front and the sides of the glasses as I expected. I actually like them better than the picture. Overall, I really like them and I can see clearly through them, and since the lenses seem to be a high end quality, these will last through the beating that I usually put my glasses through since I'm always taking them off and on.

* Overall Impression:-This is a good value for 2 pairs of reading glasses with whole lens reading magnification in traditional shaped lenses in plastic frames with a contrasting light and dark neutral toned tortoiseshell pattern.-Note that in person the pattern looks completely different in color than in the pictures. In the listing pictures it looks more like a dark neutral tone with less contrast. In person it’s a beige neutral with darker neutral high contrasting tortoiseshell pattern.* Pros-what I liked and what worked well:-Good value for the quality, style and quantity.-Good quality on the lenses and frame. Well made and nicely finished.-2 pairs included.-Traditional lens shape and style.-Tortoiseshell patterned plastic frames with a high contrast tortoiseshell pattern. Note it’s not the darker, neutral less contrasting pattern as shown in the pictures. In person it’s a lighter beige neutral tone for the main color and the tortoiseshell pattern is a darker pattern with a moral neutral tone. The overall tone is more neutral to slightly cool toned vs warm toned. The pattern is high contrast vs subtle.-Silver toned accents at the upper corners of the front of the glasses frame for a stylish, classic design.-Full lens reading glasses. Not progressives or bifocals. The entire lens is magnified in reading glasses strength. You won’t be able to use these for general use or distance viewing, just up close and reading.-Clear lenses, not tinted.-Stylish, look good on.-Comfortable to wear.-Lightweight, not overly heavy.-Plastic frames.-Blue light blocking.-Scratch resistant.-UV protection.-The reading glass magnification (3X, in my variation) was true and accurate.-Reading magnification sticker on the lens to show the strength. (remove it before use)-Easy to see through and read through.-Standard full size lenses, not half or smaller lenses.-Reading strength: 3X (in this variation, there are other variations)-Come with 2 semi rigid soft storage cases.* Cons-what I didn’t like and what didn’t work well:-The listing pictures for the color was completely different than in person. In the listing pictures they look like a darker neutral tortoiseshell pattern. In person they are very different in a lighter and darker high contrast pattern. If you were expecting them to match the listing pictures, they won’t. They are very different in person.* Tips & Thoughts:-Note that they are not progressive, bifocal or distance glasses. They are full reading glasses (magnification, the same strength as in bifocals) and the entire lens is magnified.-You won’t be able to walk, drive or do anything but close up viewing and reading in them, they aren’t distance or mid range glasses and have no area to look out at like bifocals do.

As another reviewer mentioned, the two pair of readers I received also were completely tortoiseshell instead of being solid colored on the frames. A bit of a let-down for me, but not a deal breaker. They are still quite cute and the color is nice. The hinges are good and don't stick. I do love how lightweight these readers feel - they're very comfortable to wear for longer periods. Plus, you can immediately tell that they're blue light blocking, and definitely help with eye strain. They don't come with a cleaning cloth (that's not an issue for me because I have a ton of them, but that may not be true for most people). They do, however, come with very nice soft cases - lightweight, just big enough to hold the readers, and excellent stitching. Overall, I'm quite pleased!

There are two pairs of stylish reading glasses in this set along with two very nice "stitched" design cases. The frames are lightweight and streamlined. I find them super attractive due to the full tortoiseshell color of the frames. The glasses I received look better than what is pictured on the Amazon website--the tortoiseshell is throughout the entire frame and not only on the ear arms.The nose guards are just bump outs in the frame and they are comfortable against my nose. There are no spring hinges but I find that is not needed. These are very comfortable and attractive slimline readers. The blue light block ability is not noticeable to me but then again, it never is.The current price of $24.99 comes to $12.50 per pair, which is on the high side of competitively priced. This supposedly has UV protection.

I like these glasses. They are light, they look great, and the blue-light blocking capability seems to work. They look and feel like they are good quality.Like others, I found the color and pattern to be more in line with a pale tan tortoiseshell rather than pink, but that's no issue for me. As for reading glasses, it seems that I'm in no way qualified to judge that function since I cannot find a magnification level that works for me. My eye doctor tells me 1.75 is the proper magnification for me, but I've been looking for a pair that will work for reading on my computer and/or my Ipad at a comfortable, workable distance. Nothing I've tried has worked for this purpose, from 1 to 2.5 and everything in between.If you know your magnification level and reading glasses work well for you for this purpose, then I'm sure you will like these!

M+ Joan Blue Light 2 Pack Reader, well made readers with blue blockers, Only thing is the description of their photos do not look like the ones I received, I wishes they had, those look so much nicer than the ones I received. I will probably not wear these pinkish color ones.HOWEVER, they are good quality glasses with spring hinges that is always a plus with glasses, comes with nice cases. lenses are clear, No pressure on the temples. Size could be a bit bigger on the frame of the women's... Also Ordered some for hubby he like them a lot.... from color to shape he said they are comfy to wear. good value for the money!

I went with a little higher power than I am used to and love it - although I see a lot more wrinkles and spots I have missed cleaning with them!! My vision has gotten so bad over the years and I have to use cheaters now to read pretty much anything. These are great and I like the sleeves that are included. I like the way they fit my face and the function is fantastic.The frames are a little smaller which I like as it doesn't feel like these will come off easily. The frames are a little thin but the lens is crisp and clean.

I like these readers, they are comfortable to wear and have spring hinges. They come with soft cases. The pinky/beige tortoise shell pattern is on the entire frame, not just the inside of the temples as depicted.

I absolutely love tortoise shell glasses. That's what drew me to these, but for the beauty of the frames I also got great readers AND blueblockers. Since I have readers stashed all over my house, I can't be looking for the blueblockers at night before I go to sleep, so it's a bonus to find readers that already include this feature. These fit me well and provided the needed magnification for my eye comfort.
