Magnet Hanging Neck Reading Glasses – Anti-Blue Light Ultra-Light Portable Square Presbyopic Spectacles for Men and Women Everyday Use

Your readers are always around your neck when you need them

A label, a menu, a text message, the back of a packet — the small print arrives twenty times a day, and every time it does, your glasses are somewhere else. On the counter, in a coat pocket, on top of your head tangled in your hair.

These stay on you. Pull the front apart at the magnetic bridge, let the two halves drop to your collarbone, and the pair hangs at your neck between uses. When the next label comes along, snap them together and read.

The hunt for your readers is over

Most people who need readers end up owning three or four pairs and still spend two minutes hunting every time the print goes soft. One buyer put it best: “I used to lose my readers every ten minutes, but now they just stay around my neck.” Another: “No more searching under couch cushions!” The glasses were fine all along; the problem was where they ended up. This pair ends up on you.

Snap together with a magnet, apart with a tug

The bridge between the lenses is a magnetic joint: a steel stud and matching socket with a locating pin. Bring the halves together and they find their own alignment with a satisfying click. Pull the front apart and the arms, which run past your ears and join behind your neck in one closed loop, hold the halves at your chest.

The hold is strong on the face — “The magnets hold tight even if I’m moving around a lot” — and the release is deliberate, so they stay put when you move and come apart only when you ask.

Rated 4.6 stars by 25 buyers

• “Best readers I’ve ever owned. The adjustable sides make it easy to get the fit just right.”
• “Very comfortable. I forget I’m even wearing them around my neck. The click when they close is very satisfying.”
• “Clear lenses and a sturdy frame. The magnets hold tight even if I’m moving around a lot.”
• “Finally, glasses that don’t get tangled in my hair when I push them up on my head. They just hang. Brilliant.”

Every order carries the Gear Elevation 90-day money-back guarantee: wear them for three months, and if they are anything less than the most convenient readers you have owned, send them back for a full refund.

So light you forget them, with anti-blue light lenses

The frame is a lightweight moulded plastic with soft, flexible arms, so the pair weighs next to nothing on your face and even less at your neck. Buyers who wear them all day say they forget they have them on.

The lenses carry an anti-blue light coating that filters part of the blue end of the spectrum and takes the harsh edge off phone screens, monitors and bright kitchen lighting, so long sessions of close work feel easier on the eyes. And the clear, square lenses sit high enough that, as one buyer noticed, “They don’t slide down my nose either.”

The arms adjust, so the loop sits where you want it

Where each arm meets the frame there is a slotted metal channel with a row of detents. Slide the soft arm out for a longer loop that hangs lower on the chest, or push it in to draw the pair up closer to the collar, and the notches hold the setting. Wide head, narrow head, long neck or short — one pair fits the range.

Why these beat the drugstore pair

Drugstore readers are cheap because they are disposable, and they get treated that way: sat on, scratched, left behind. These have a sturdier frame, clear optics and the magnetic bridge that keeps them on you, which is why buyers who have tried both say “these feel much more premium” and come back for a second pair for the car.

Seven strengths, three colours

Readers are sold by magnification. Strengths here run +1.00, +1.50, +2.00, +2.50, +3.00, +3.50 and +4.00, the same in both lenses — match the number printed on the pair you already own, or ask an optician for a two-minute reading test if this is your first pair.

Frequently asked questions

Which strength should I pick?

Match the number on your current readers if you have a pair. If these are your first, an optician will tell you your reading strength in a couple of minutes, usually free. Too strong is as uncomfortable as too weak, so it is worth the two-minute check.

Will the magnet hold securely?

Yes. The stud-and-socket catch with its locating pin holds firmly on the face and releases when you pull the front apart deliberately. Buyers describe the magnets as strong and the click as satisfying.

Can I wear them over contact lenses?

Yes. Readers over distance contacts is a common arrangement for close work. Your strength with contacts in can differ from your strength without them, so check which number works for you.

What does the anti-blue light coating do?

It filters part of the blue end of the visible spectrum, which gives the lens a faint warm cast and softens the glare from screens and bright lighting during long sessions of close work.

Will they fit my head?

The arms slide in and out of a notched channel at each hinge, so the loop sets longer or shorter to suit a wide range of heads and necks. One buyer with a wide head adjusted them and reports they are fine.

Give the loop a day or two to feel natural at your neck; as one buyer put it, “once you do, you won’t go back.”
