DPG59 Reinforcer Rx-Bifocal High Performance Protective Eyeware with Rubber Temples and Protective Eyeglass Sleeve - Clear Lens, 2.0 Diopter

I'm 46 and wear reading glasses. It's gotten to the point I have to put on my reading glasses to see the tape measure, see to cut the line with a saw, etc - until now. These things are awesome! They have built in bifocals. Look down through the bifocal, you can see up close. Look up or straight ahead and you see through the regular safety glass. The bifocal part of the glasses is slightly oversized - for example, big enough so you can see the saw blade and the line you're cutting, not say just one tiny spot. The quality of the lenses seems good too. Objects are clear and sharp. They are stylish enough for a variety of uses and inexpensive enough to be disposable or easily replaceable - light and comfortable too. They even come with a protective sleeve to protect the lenses. Just remember... this is a review for $13.00 safety glasses, not $300.00 prescription glasses. Whoever came up with this idea is a genius. I just ordered a second pair with the smoked lenses for working outside (or reading a book on the beach, or sunglasses that let me see to tie a fly when fly fishing, you get the idea). Highly recommended!

I used a pair of these on a recent 3100 mile/ 9 week cross country solo bike tour, from San Diego to San Augustine FL. I needed the 2.0 bifocal feature as I am 63 and require reading glasses to read my GPS and bike computer. Previously, I had cycled using planar bifocal reading glasses. I used these glasses perhaps 4-5 hours per day, 6 days per week. I would remove them at stops several times a day. These worked a lot better than my earlier framed bifocals: + The lenses wrap around, offering better eye protection. + I could adjust my bike mirror (which is mounted to my helmet) higher up, without the frame getting in the way (as with the framed reading glasses). This allowed me to see under the mirror, which is large (2.12" dia). + I could clean these with any type of paper towel or rest room paper (sometimes even with my bike shirt) without them getting scratched. I passed through 2 deserts on my ride, and there was a fair amount of dust. + The spring-loaded arms held up well. Others have tended to break off easily as one can be quite rough on them with all the taking off and replacing at stops. + The 2.0 bifocals work well. - One negative is due to their curvature, which is a common problem with all curved glasses. This makes them harder to store safely. Easy to squish in a bike bag. They come with a nice stretchy black tube which slides over the glasses. This has a clip. I ended up clipping the tube to my bike up front. The worked well, and avoided my squishing the glasses inside my bag. Unfortunately I lost these near the end of my trip so I am ordering another pair.

These fit well and stay on for my woodworking activities. BiFocal is an interesting option that seems to work as it allows you to perform detailed actions, but still allows you to see normal distances. My only complaint is that the magnification does not extend a hint higher. It works well for workbench or tool activities, but if you need to look in front of you, or up, you have to really push your head up. Void of that, clarity and lack of distortion is excellent. I still use these a lot, but admit I did find a nicer pair being 3M. Their BiFocal is a little higher with the same if not better quality and saves me from kinking my neck when looking at higher detail. Still very good and I would buy again, but wish that bifocal was a hint higher...

These are perfect. I have to take notes on construction sites very often and these were economical and allow me to see everything at far distances while also allowing me to read my notepad.

I'll be honest, I hate wasting money on glasses because I break and abuse them. These are the first I've found that offer a wonderful balance between functionality, safety and looks too. I really like these. I keep a pair in my garage and another in my workshop. The safety glass feature makes them really nice when weed wacking, shooting guns or any other outdoor activity that requires safety glasses. In cases where I need darker lenses, Dewalt sells the same pair as sunglasses too. You can find those here: Dewalt DPG59-220C Reinforcer Rx-Bifocal 2.0 Smoke Lens High Performance Protective Safety Glasses with Rubber Temples and Protective Eyeglass Sleeve Due to the wrap around style, when going fast on a bike, motorcycle or ski boat, the shape keeps the wind out of my eyes and they don't tear [after all, doesn't it look bad to be riding my nice motorcycle down the rode with the appearance of crying?]. The added ability to read maps, take measurements, see my phone etc makes them all the better. I can choose between sun glasses type or clear and both work great. I give these 5 stars along with a good thumbs up!

This is my second pair of these safety glasses. My first pair took a lot of abuse, and the frame finally cracked. But, the lens didn't scratch or shatter. The first pair lasted about three years. So, yeah, they go good.

Item delivered as described. But i may yet to get used to it. It makes me feel giddy switching from seeing far (looking up) and seeing near (looking down).

Excelente calidad de los lentes. Muy práctico el que sean bifocal.

Lentes de muy buena calidad. Cumplen con la norma de seguridad ANSI/ISEA Z87 y fueron aceptados por el departamento de seguridad de la empresa. Los puedo utilizar en la compañía sin problema. Son cómodos y la altura de lente focal es buena y no cansa la vista. Incluye una funda practica y Bonita que evita que los lentes se rallen cuando los doblas para guardarlos.

I’m happy with these glasses. They fit well and are comfortable. I only gave 4 stars, as the magnified area is just a bit too small. Still very useful, and very handy to have in the workshop.
