A handy little set of readers
Received mine today and was pleasantly surprised. Took a little while to adjust to them. I’m African American so with a wider nose bridge you may have to play with them to find the “sweet spot ". Also if you have oily skin be aware they will slide so be conscious of that. I have the 2.5 strength and can see much clearly for reading. As a matter of fact I'm writing this review wearing them and see crystal clear on my iPad.

Positive and comfortable fit + good, clear optics.
I've used thinoptics brand of readers - the lure of that brand is that they're THIN! Great for very temporary use, but just uncomfortable for me for anything over 5 minutes. That's a downer as I'm more and more reliant on readers with each passing day. The other issue is the frame will slide out of the case while in my pocket or when grabbing them to go. I eventually stopped carrying them.Enter Nooz.I was a little hesitant to get these because I'd been down this path before, but it looked like the design solved the two main issues I experienced with the thinoptics brand. 'Longer use comfort' and staying secure in the case. Both checked out. A bonus: due to the wider nose piece design and material, they also stay put much better.As with any review, your milage may vary. I suspect that most wanting or needing a similar solution will have very positive experiences with this brand.

Not as good as the alternatives.
I also have a pair of the ThinOptics Reading Glasses . The Nooz glasses are slightly more comfortable for extended wear, though they're not nearly as comfortable as a standard glasses frame. They put too much pressure on my nose for me to be happy. Other than that, they're inferior to the ThinOptics glasses in every way. They're bigger, bulkier, and most importantly, the optical quality is noticeably inferior. They may feel slightly better on the nose, but I vastly prefer reading through the ThinOptics glasses.

They're ok for quick reading glasses
After ear surgery, my surgeon told me to wear armless glasses for a month. I tried ThinOptics and hated them. They were not comfortable and difficult to clean. Nooz are much more comfortable. However, I can't wear them more then 15 minutes or so before they start to pinch. Also, if I have applied any face lotion, or sunscreen, they will not stay on. The same holds true if I am sweating. After wearing them a short time, they tend to tilt forward, bluring my vision. However, they are convenient and are handy when I need quick reading glasses.

Great for reading on bed
I'm one of those people who read while lying on bed. With regular glasses the frame would get in the way between my face and the pillow. This lens doesn't have the frame to get in the way, and has enough grip to stay on even when my head is tilted sideways. When the lens in in the case it's thin and tough enough that I can store the lens under my pillow.

Stay on better than others
I don't know why I thought this case would affix to my phone case like the ThinOptics case, but it doesn't so has to be carried separately which I'm disappointed about. I could use double sided tape perhaps, but the case is bulkier than the ThinOptics so it may not work as well on the phone. That said, I like the glasses much better than the other brand. The nose piece has more substance and the material keeps it from sliding down as the others did. In fact those fell off rather often and these don't. At this point I'm just carrying them in my pocket with my phone. The case and protruding part of the glasses are smooth silicone type material and there is no risk of scratching my phone screen. The glasses work well and do the job. I'm pleased with this purchase although I would be even more pleased if they had adhesive to stick to my phone case and a slimmer case. One good thing about the case, however, is that it has a hole to string a cord through. I can do that and hang it around my neck or some other arrangement to keep the glasses handy.

They are very effective glasses, and I recommend them
8/17/2018: Down voted because the glasses began to constantly fall out of the case. I always found them, until I didnt. Now I don't have them anymore. Shame. They were nice, but very flimsy.So far, so good. I found myself with some time last night before a presentation, so I began to look at my phone. I had these little glasses on my key chain, so they were readily available. I did notice that once, when I wasn't paying attention and was moving my head around (eating a sandwich), they fell off. But after that I had no problems. They are accurate, small, very portable, and most important, available when I need them with no hassle. They aren't what I use at home (where I have lots of good readers), but that's not why I bought them. They are very effective glasses, and I recommend them.

Very convenient.
I bought these because I work in the construction industry and the environment is very dusty. I liked the idea of the case and the ability to keep the glasses in my pocket and out of the dust. I have been very pleased and impressed so far. The glasses remain scratch free after a couple of weeks so I have great hope for them. They are also very convenient to carry around. I keep mine on a lanyard do they are really accessable. I would highly recommend these glasses.

Anfangs Top, aber dann zeigten sich Design bedingte Probleme bis zum Totalausfall
Ich schreibe diese Rezension 1 Jahr nach dem Kauf, und kann daher entgegen vieler 5 Sterne Rezensenten die Funktion über die Zeit beurteilen.Nach einiger Zeit lagern sich Schmutz/Fett/Hautpartikel in dem Sikikonpolster ab, und dieses lässt sich kaum reinigen.Dadurch sieht es nicht nur etwas unansehnlich aus, sondern der Halt auf der Nase lässt auch nach, so dass die Boot bei Blick nach unten nach wenigen Minuten nach unten rutscht/kippt.Hinzu kommt, dass der dünne Steg offenbar durch das auseinander biegen langsam ermüdet, was die Spannung weiter mindert. Am schlimmsten ist aber, dass es irgenwann zum Ermüdungsbruch des Steges kommt. Bei mir hat die Nooz nicht einmal 1 Jahr gehalten, obwohl ich sie nur sporadisch genutzt habe.Ich werde jetzt versuchen dies als Mangel zu reklamieren. Wenn es sich hier um bedauerliche Einzelfälle handeln sollte müsste der Hersteller ja kulant reagieren. In dem Fall werde ich hier nochmal ein Update schreiben.Meine persönliche Einschätzung ist aber, dass die Nooz Design bedingt früher oder später bei jedem das zeitliche segnen wird.

Brilliant
These Nooz, Pincenez style, glasses are brilliant and just what I wanted. I wear contact lenses, but, need reading glasses for ....well...reading! I saw these on Amazon and immediately thought they were worth a try considering the price. Delivered next day and put to immediate use. They are just brilliant!!Other reviews are good, but, some complain that they take a bit of getting used to to set on the nose properly. I must just have a good nose because I had no trouble setting them. They fit comfortably without pinching, are easy to put on and take off, come in a tough and very convenient plastic case that easily slips into a pocket. The specs are very light weight, plastic, but optically very clear and easy to read with.I am really pleased and will be buying another pair for spare. No more bulky pockets and broken or bent glasses arms. Highly recommended.

Take some getting used to but okay
Very lightweight and easy to wear once you get used to them. This is the first time I've had this type of reading glasses so wasn't too sure about them. Having worn them a few times they are okay for when you need something really small for travelling etc. but I think when worn for an hour or so the pressure on your nose would become annoying. Also it took me a while to get used to the 'no arms' style and constantly knocked them off my nose accidentally - but this is more to do with the TYPE of glasses rather than the NOOZ ones. These NOOZ ones are in themselves high quality and very handy

Handy flexible reading glasses that can always be found
Bought as a gift, flexible yet sturdy , fitting on the end of your nose , (headmaster/professor style) they will stay without a problem if you attempt to move them up the nose they will fall off.Thin and compact in a protective plastic case that would be ideal for attaching to your phone/diary etc you will always be able to read the menu in restaurants, or the "small print" whenever you need to.Colour (red) just right for my partners phone case so she has no excuse for not having her reading glasses now.

compact reading glasses
Comfortable to wear, the nose grip is a soft silicon type material which grips well. I have tried other brands and this is the most comfortable. Seem quite robust, I have tried other brand where the nose grip falls apart quite quickly. Not quite as flat as other makes i.e. you could not stick them on to your mobile phone, but take up very little room in your pocket or whatever. Great for night out, reading menus, saves carrying them round your neck or having a huge glasses box in your pocket.
