THIN-OPTIC

What is this. Reading glasses or magnifying glasses. 2 mm thick (0,1"). Our Thin Optic glasses are a smart piece of magnifying glasses with many uses. This is a pair of reading glasses for temporary use. Made to fit many people and for short time use. Not for reading a book or doing craft work but for short time use. Put on the nose to read a menu in the restaurant, tie a small fly to the hair fine fishing line, treading a needle.

One-hand use makes them easy to use. Often when you need to see something shortly you have something in your hands. A regular pair of glasses needs to hands to put on.

THIN-OPTIC
Place them on your nose where they sit comfortably. Don’t wear them like regular glasses—they’re designed differently! If you wear them like normal glasses, they might pinch or fit poorly. Just move your reading material back and forth until it’s in focus.
On the nose, obviously, but you can also hold them in your hand like a magnifying glass. They shouldn’t be worn like regular glasses, high up on the nose. They won’t stay in place there. Place the glasses slightly lower on the bridge of the nose so they sit securely and don’t fall off.
You can use the glasses every where anytime. For temporary reading. such as reading on a box in the supermarket, changing fly when fly fishing, reading a meny in restaurang, see something on the mobile etc.The design of the nose clip will pinch if you have them on a long time. For long time use you should get some glasses adjusted for your eyes.
The strength of the glasses are not relevant since they are used as a magnifying glass. You move the object back forth to find you focus. If you are reading a book it's better to have glasses with the right strength but theses glasses are for temporary use: Reading on a box, changing fly when fly fishing, reading a meny, see something on the mobile etc.
You only need one hand to pop these on your nose. Unlike regular glasses that often need both hands, these are super easy to put on and take off whenever you need them!

USE WITH SUNGLASSES

You can easily place the glasses on your nose in front of your sunglasses. Not so beautiful but it will do the job.
