This was actually purchased for my mother who has cataracts and just generally old & tired eyes. She's incredibly happy with it and finds it incredibly helpful when trying to read small print, and sometimes even the computer monitor. Excellent product for the price :)

I Use them for model buiding and computer servicing the great and i dont have to put anything on my head that is bulky.

These clip on your own glasses easily, and they flip up and out of the way easily so you don't have to remove them if you want to walk over to get a cup of coffee or look out the window. I wish they were a bit stronger in magnification, but they are a good product at a great price.

The newest pairs of Clip-on glasses by Carson have proven to be the best buy I have made. They assist me when I am on the computer without getting computer neck. I would and do recommend them to any person who wears bifocals and who do any work on a computer. They allow me to sit back in my chair and read the computer screen.

I bought this for my father who was struggling to read his daily newspapers. He loved it and carries it with him as a treasured possession since it has given him a big chunk of confidence...and all this for under $15. I would greatly recommend it!

I really wanted these for helping me with my beading -- those tiny beads just keep getting tinier! Although the glasses work well and are comfortable clipped on my glasses, the focal point is very close. It takes a lot of getting used to.

The lenses are clear, but it seems to narrow between the two lenses for my eyes, and also the weight (due to the clip-on mechanism) seems a bit too heavy ( compared to the weight of a sun glass clip on that I bought from a local Walgreen). So it was not very comfortable, but it does the job.

These flippin magnifying glasses may very well save my gradschool career. I was diagnosed with cataract and had trouble reading, which happens to be one of the main things we do in gradschool. Before these flippin glasses i was considering eye surgery. Now I am definitely satisfied with this vision aid. It flips up and down so you can easily look away from your book and focus on objects further away. Its not so stylish however but thats life you gotta trade style with comfort sometimes so this product gets 5 stars. (P.S : Get the surgery, its worth it)

Glass came scratched and it has no return policy. I suggest you do NOT buy!

This is the same 1.5X clip on that's sold for over $14.
Works great, people who ware distance glasses do not have to get another pair of reading glasses. Just clip this one on.


The only suggestion is if they could make it with thinner polycarbonate lens.
