Update 7/26/18
The new pair I ordered came in but proved to be defective (the coating issue mentioned below that occurs over time happened to one lens but not the other after the first cleaning). I contacted customer service and within 12 hours they took care of it for me. I'm still standing with the 5 star review and adding the comment that their customer service and support is very fast, efficient, effective, and appears to genuinely have the interest of the customer top of mind. Thanks!

Update 6/1/2018
After two years of heavy daily use I'm having the same coating issue mentioned below. Also, there is a crack developing in the right lens where the nose piece connects the two lenses. I expect they will come apart soon. So I've just ordered another pair. I still standby my five star rating for the reasons discussed below.
*********************************************************

Original review: These are excellent light weight, polarized, bifocal sunglasses. I ordered one pair, and it has become my everyday sunglasses (I live in Hawaii and use them literally every day). After receiving the first pair I ordered a second pair that I keep as a spare in the car. Good fit, wrap around style, good optical quality. I recommend them.

Update 6/24/16: After daily use for about six months the right lens appears to be losing it's coating. It has a noticeably scuffed appearance. On further examination it looks like both lenses are getting a bit scratched up as well. Still usable for now but I'll need to replace them soon.

I'm standing by my five star review though because they've served me well and the price is still the best I can find for polarized readers.

Love the fit and is much better than expected. I am buying a pair for my Sister as well

For my old analog car, plain (polarized, of course) sunglasses worked well. The instrument panel displays are limited and large and labels for the few buttons, knobs and switches are easy to read. My new computerized car is another thing altogether. The displays are packed with information, and buttons and switches proliferate and are mostly small. I discovered bifocal sunglasses! My requirements were simple: polarized and reader power of +1.00. The vast selection on Amazon became very few. The reader power is the main stumbling block; +1.00 power is not much and the offerings are few. That power wouldn't suit me for ordinary reading, but the instrument panel is much farther away than I hold a book, and +1.00 is perfect.

These glasses are perfect. They are light, comfortable, and leave enough space around the edges for air circulation. The reader part of the lens is barely visible from the front"”the line is on the back side of the lens. The lenses for the "black" color are gray and do not give a color cast to what you see. Good! Being frameless, durability may be a concern, especially with the 1-screw temple attachment, but so far they remain tight.

Be aware that the reader part of the lens is polarized along with the rest of the lens. Polarized lenses are a problem with some electronic displays. If you avoid polarized sunglasses for that reason, but otherwise prefer them, search Amazon for polarized sunglass readers with the reader lens inset into the larger lens. The reader lenses in these glasses are not polarized nor are they heavily tinted, which, for drivers, makes reading the dash even easier.

These reader sunglasses fill a need that almost no others do, and do it well. Five stars well earned.

P.S. For manufacturers, an even better solution would be an "aviator" style with +1.00 reader power that would better fit in a shirt pocket.

I'm a big Maui Jim fan (in general), but after losing two pair ($$ ouch) and not wanting to pay more than I should, I ran across these and decided to give them a shot. Upon receipt, I was pleasantly surprised! I compared them side-by-side to my Maui Jim Makahas, and fit was nearly identical (both very comfortable for full-size male). One reviewer here claimed that these were not polarized, but mine were polarized every bit as well as the far more expensive Maui Jim glasses, as evidenced by testing several reflections (rotate the glasses through 180 degrees while viewing a reflection off of a metal surface) and outdoor scenes/looking into water. I'm used to the Maui Rose lens color, so these green-ish lenses were not as nice--to me--as the Maui Jim lens color, but that's just personal preference, and they seemed to work just great as sunglasses, which is, after all, their purpose, so no deductions there. The only place I could find fault--and it's fairly minor--was with the bifocal portion of the lens. It worked well, and cannot be (easily) seen from the front of the lens, but I wish the bifocal portion would have extended up, higher on the lens. More on that in a moment. Now, if you have prescription bifocals with smooth gradient transition between the two lens strengths, these may be a bit of a surprise that in that they are a step-function (sharp transition) from near- to far-vision, and that may take some getting used to (Maui Jims are the same). And the bifocal portion is almost like a sticker add-on--you can feel a 'bump' where the bifocal portion is (just like Maui Jim readers). (I didn't try to peel it off to see if it was really a sticker or not, but it feels like it may be, although that's not a knock against the readers, as it is well-done and looks solid). Regarding the positioning of the reader lenses--and this is likely a personal preference thing, too--I wish the reader portion would have extended up higher on the lens. That is, when I'm driving, with my hear looking 'normally' forward (i.e. not tipped down nor up), the reader portion only covers the steering wheel horn (center of the steering wheel) on down--it does not cover any of the dashboard instrument cluster. Now, I can see the instrument cluster just fine without readers (although readers help slightly), but the issue comes when, at a red light and I check my phone, I have to really tip my head backwards so that the bottom reader-portion of the lens lines up with my phone screen. My preference would be to leave my head horizontal, and only redirect my eyes to look down at my phone screen (which is much more natural). And the only way to do that is to either push the glasses farther up my nose (uncomfortable and strange-looking), or move the reader lenses higher up on the main lenses. So, it's a bit of a bummer. I will say, however, that these are actually quite a bit _better_ than the Maui Jim readers in that regard, as the Maui Jim's have a far _smaller_ (and even lower on the lens) reader portion, meaning you almost have to look straight down at your chest to use the reader portion of the Makahas. Maybe it's just the way I wear my glasses, or hold my head while I'm driving...I don't know. All I know is that both of them are too low for me, although I appreciate the fact that you can get reader sunglasses, and especially at a great price. One suggestion that I just tried (with great success) was to take a pair of non-reader sunglasses, and add a reader-lens overlay Hydrotac Stick-on Bifocal Lenses (OPTX 20/20)- +1.75 Diopter to them, which can be positioned anywhere you like (within reason). Worked like a charm! No more head-tilting when reading a phone at stop-lights. (Just remember to pay attention and be respectful of other drivers when the light turns green again--be safe out there). Overall though, these are great sunglasses, and good alternatives to the more expensive Maui Jim readers. Thanks In Style Eyes!

These bifocal sunglasses really help when driving! You have glare/UV protection and the ability to read your dials and LED readouts with ease. Anyone who is getting older and needs reading glasses will love this product for driving and reading outdoors in the sun.
