Fold-up spectacles

[Richard Devon]

Can anyone recommend an online source for folding ready reader glasses that are strong enough for farm/workshop use.....the Boots range (about the 10 > 20 quid mark) don't seem to last. The next thing the opticians had to offer were designer type 200+ notes.

Wilko have/had some in their range. I keep a pair in my farm vehicles for opening gates with combination locks!

Aldi, £2.49 plastic frames, fairly robust as they go; metal framed ones' hinges usually break before the sturdyish plastic ones.

Cheap enough to have littered about the place.

I have been using reading glasses in the workshop for well over 20 years. I have tried different makes but always try to get readyspex u21. You may need to bend the arms out if they are tight or they may break. I have several pairs in stock and normally get 2 or 3 years out of them. I last payed £2.99 each but will be more now.
