OT stick on readers
 
I keep getting ads on instagram for these things called stick on readers for sunglasses. If they work it would be helpful on my riding glasses and regular sunglasses.
Anyone try or recommend these things?

Following...same ads for me.

Curious.

Used them successfully before getting progressive sunglasses for riding. They used to be like $12.99 from amazon. Just enough for you to see computer or phone when riding.

Clarity is fine and optics not too distorted? I'm super sensitive to cheap eyewear.

Only issue I had with them was in Hawaii....reading on the beach, I think a combination of the heat and suntan lotion distorted them....but it never happened when riding.

They are perfectly adequate clarity wise. You can even cut them with a sharp knife or scissors if needed. They blocked the view on one set of glasses so I just trimmed them down and they worked perfectly.

Since my cataract surgery I've only has to have reader glasses. I buy the stick-on readers for my daily and cycling sunglasses, which work very well.

Thanks

I bought some made by Hydrotac from Amazon a few years back. They would not stay adhered, I think due to thickness/stiffness of the plastic.

If someone has success with another brand, please post.
