Foster Grant Men's Sawyer Multifocus Rectangular Reading Glasses, Black/Transparent, 54 mm + 1.75

Awesome set of glasses with a very nice anti-reflective coating they work really well and these were less than half the price that all the local stores around me were asking which was like $35

I like that the multifocal is all the way across the lens so it doesn't blur when looking out the sides. I use three monitors at work and these are perfect for that. I like that they are not blue blockers. Blue blockers change the color of everything you look at and I need to see true colors when working on computer design. The reading portion at the bottom and the mid range is wide enough so I'm not having to tilt my head to read or look at the computer and the top portion seems to transition to nothing so it doesn't distort at distance. These are the closest to a one size fits all solution I have found even after spending hundreds at the optometrist. Optometrist said They don't make glasses that will work for everything and I would need regular glasses for driving and interacting and another pair for working on the computer. He was wrong. The reason for the 4 star review is the first pair had a cracked lens and the replacement pair had a chipped lens. Finally by the third pair I have glasses that are in good shape. Why Amazon would send glasses in an envelope is beyond me but their return policy made it easy to get the replacement if not a bit frustrating. Overall I am very happy I found these. Finally have a pair of glasses I can put on in the morning and take off at night without having to switch back and forth every time I get on the computer.

These are great. I was sick of the reading glass shuffle. These give me the range of focus that I like. Now I can look through my glasses rather than over them to look at the computer and to my close up work. They seem sturdy and look great. I went and ordered two more so that I can have them at work and home.

Would like to love rthem, but can"t. First pair, nose metal piece broke with no abuse nor trauma. Overall they were good glasses. Average in looks, but glass lenses worked well as did the graded magnification. But because of the break on the frame we returned them and Amazon rapidly send another pair out. The second pair did not fit right. It took me a few minutes to figure it out. The right temple/bow was shorter than the left. They were not equal size. Had to return them

With normal readers I'm constantly pulling off my glasses to see farther ahead, then replacing them when reading. In my job, this is constant. With these graduated readers aka multifocus glasses, I can leave them on for most of the day. What a relief. Also fashionable, look great, and comfortable. I must get another pair for home.

First, I don't know if these glasses are knock-offs but along the bottom edge where the lenses contact the frame there are several nicks/chips in the lenses (both) that reflect back into my eyes and generally appear like a blob of lint when the glasses are being worn (plus when cleaning them your cloth will hang up on the nicks). As far as their usefulness as described (see to read, see your computer, see across the desk) there is not much rhyme or reason as to where the sweet spots are placed. I have a normal size face but the lenses are not symmetrical. The sweet spot for the right lens is within the inside one quarter of the lens (you almost have to look at your nose to use this area) while the left lens doesn't seem to have a spot where my eye can focus; certainly there are not areas in both lenses where my eyes can both use the magnification at the same time. Lastly, the most powerful area of both lenses is right along the bottom border within about a 1/4 inch area meaning that I have to tip my head uncomfortably back in order to focus, plus there is the issue of not having an alignment between my eyes while doing this so I pretty much have to move my head left and right until I decide that it's close enough. I bought these to try and end the headaches from using a computer screen at work for several hours while I interview clients but they are way over-rated. I'd return them if my son didn't toss out the packaging, and I think I'll see if they will take them back regardless! I also want to note that I wore progressive lenses for several years before I had the lenses in my eyes replaced and never had a problem finding the focal point for the distance I had to deal with at the time.

The lenses work well. I was hoping to get a good pair of graduated power lenses since I just paid $320 for a pair from my optometrist. The lenses function as I had hoped. The problem is with the frames. My favorite reading glasses BY FAR have been the Foster Grant aluminum series. Those frames are of very high quality and the lenses are good. I assumed these frames would be comparable. They are not even close. Costing almost twice as much as the regular aluminum frames, I figured it was the same glasses with graduated lenses. Not so. These frames look and feel cheap. The hinges are flimsy and loose fitting and the frame itself isn't straight. They feel like they could snap any second. I use them sparingly for fear they will break any moment. After two weeks use (of very limited use) one hinge is now much looser and threatening to break altogether. I have come to expect more from Foster Grant and will not be replacing this style of glasses with another pair.

Glasses are very nice, lightweight and stylish. My girlfriend says I look hot. You should buy these too. :-)
