Frequently Asked Questions
What does +1.5 magnification mean for reading glasses?
+1.5 magnification is ideal for early presbyopia, typically appearing between ages 40-45. This strength provides comfortable clarity for reading books, menus, phone screens, and close-up tasks without being too strong for occasional use throughout the day.
Are these iconic frames suitable for all face shapes?
Yes, our iconic designs feature universally flattering shapes with narrow to medium fits that complement all face types. The collection includes timeless silhouettes that balance proportion and style, ensuring a comfortable fit for everyone. Try our personalized style guide to discover which specific frames best suit your features.
What's the difference between rubber and acetate frames?
Rubber frames offer exceptional flexibility and ultra-lightweight comfort, ideal for active use and all-day wear. Acetate frames provide a more premium aesthetic with richer colors and a slightly more structured fit. Both materials are durable and hypoallergenic, trusted by over 150,000 customers.
Can I use these reading glasses for computer work?
While +1.5 readers work well for close-up tasks, dedicated blue light glasses are better suited for extended screen time as they reduce digital eye strain without magnification. Consider both options to cover all your visual needs throughout the day.
