The biggest reason to buy is sheer convenience - the glasses are feather-light, durable, and designed to stay with you so you are less likely to misplace them.

Key Features

• Ultimate portability: The slim armless readers and the small Universal Pod Case attach to a phone or keychain so the glasses are always at hand when you need them.
• Superior comfort: The lightweight, feather-light construction and universal fit work for a wide range of nose shapes and are suitable for both men and women.

• Durable materials: Lenses are made by an advanced optical lens manufacturer and are tested for longevity, while the polycarbonate resists shattering.

Who It's For

The ThinOptics Universal Pod and Readers are ideal for commuters, travelers, and people who frequently misplace traditional glasses or want a near-instant solution for reading small print.
