Amazing product, really works well! Just use the hottest water you can stand on your fingers to apply. It softens just enough then bonds well to the cleaned glasses. Amazing that it REALLY works. Try it, You will be happy too. The lenses are just a tad large so unless your glasses are very large (like mine are) you will have to trim along the top of the lenses. Cool product.

My optometrist introduced these to me several years ago. It took a while to find them back then, and I now need a new set (stronger) so I am purchasing from amazon.com. These lenses are absolutely incredible. Whenever I go to the beach, I always bring these along. Much easier than bringing reading glasses and sunglasses. The inserts work as well as reading glasses.

...diving masks. As a videographer, using regular reading glasses to view the monitor on top of the elevated camera was a pain. I stuck a pair of these OPTX 20/20 stick-on bifocals(just wet them with water, place them, ready to go!) at the TOP of a pair of safety glasses, and it was easy to view both 'live' and monitor. I've had a pair on my sunglasses for at least five years. They're great!

I was looking for reading sunglasses for a vacation to Mexico. There seem to be the ~$15 dollar versions and the ~$150+ versions with very little in between. My sunglass of choice is the RayBan Aviator. These stick-on lenses let me keep my preferred style AND be able to read by the pool. They were easy to stick to the RayBan lens (which is glass and spherical), and I have had no problems with the stick-on detaching in two months of use, even in the humid Mexican summer or while splashing in the pool. The users who have had problems seem to be dealing with plastic lenses or high curvatures. For the money, these lenses do what they need to do.

I attempted to use these stick-ons with plastic lenses. I followed the directions and placed them using some water on freshly cleansed lenses. They seem to work for a few hours but the next day both fell repeatedly fell off. They were routinely replaced on the lenses for the next few days until they were lost after falling off again.

These may be appropriate for flat "glass" lenses but not for high curvature type sport sunglasses.

Pretty much threw my money away on these

If you have Serengeti glass sunglasses with a larger flat lens they can be made into nice prescription sunglasses.

Suggest order a size stronger as the glass cuts down.

Make sure the sunglasses are big enough 34 or greater to accomodate lenses,

And be aware lenses do fall off...I am told, so have a spare.

Love them.

You are supposed to let set for 24 hours, so plan ahead.
They stick on via water seal and are removable.

They only thing I did not like was cutting through the size lable to open. You can carefully slice with think knife...maybe.

Don't work well with the lighter weight plastic curved lens on some Oakleys, or Nike Skylon.

Interesting and useful. They can be trimmed down and fit for use. I had lasix surgery but still needed some close help. Used this product to put into my off the shelf sunglasses, Malibu Jim, so on the boat, driving anywhere if I needed close up I just look down. Likc stick on bifocals.

went to walmart.. tried on several reading glasses until i got the one that i could see from about 3 ft to distance.. then ordered these.. i purchased the 1.25+.. they come curved to fit the inside of your glasses.. i dipped them in warm water and applied them to the insdie of my wrap around tinted riding glasses... now i can read my guages and road signs. see pot holes and road debre... they work beyond my hopes... didnt want to spend the extra money if i didnt have too for prescription glasses.. these you can remove and use on other glasses or experiment with the placement to fine tune them.. i put mine so they are all i look thru with i ride.. you wont be sorry.. try them.. any questions [...]

I've been using these for several years and only last fall got another few sets ... few sets? Yeah, I carry sunglasses in all the vehicles I drive and ride and hate looking for 'readers' when I need them. These are a quick, cheap, reliable fix. Stick them on and forget they're there until needed. They can be trimmed to fit just about anything by utilizing a good, sharp pair of scissors and a little care. They're a bit large for my needs as I like the 'line' well below my line of sight, especially when riding. I have a couple of helmets with the drop down sun shades which are fantastic items, only I found I couldn't read my instruments, gps, radar, etc. These little gems solved that problem beautifully and they have stayed in place for over a year. I can't be too enthusiastic recommending this product ... I love 'em.

Finally ordered these stick-on lenses for myself, and I am very happy with them! I spend a lot of time in my car, and I have gotten to the point where I can't easily read all the digital instruments on my dashboard, let alone the text screen on my XM radio or the street names on my navigation system. Now I can. It was easy to affix the lenses to the inside of the sunglasses I use for driving, although I did have to trim them down a bit with scissors and play with positioning a bit. But now I can easily read the whole instrument panel in my car through the magnifying lenses, and drive safely by watching the road through the top half of my sunglasses. They work great, and are much cheaper than buying prescription sunglasses.
