They fixed the nose bridge!!!
UPDATE , SEPT 2019: They fixed the nose bridge!!! New one has not broke in months...YAY 5 stars. FROM 2017: 5 stars for concept, 1 star for nose piece breaking for the 3rd time. I can't stand carrying glasses around with me because I only need them for reading. And so this concept of always having them on my phone is awesome. I am never caught without reading glasses anymore. I started off with another product that had a keychain attachment and a much softer nose piece and frankly looked to be more durable overall, but the keychain thing was too annoying! I started off with the Iphone case with the built in thinoptics holder because I didn't trust that the sticky tape would adhere to my existing case for the long term. I used that system for several months. But, the thinoptics Iphone case did not protect my phone very well and I kept breaking the tempered glass protector ( not a thinoptics product ) whenever I dropped the phone. So I just went back to my favorite phone case and bought the universal thinoptics case and it is holding up surprisingly well! I am very happy with that set up now. Sticks like glue! They are extremely low profile and add almost nothing to the thickness of my phone, so it easily slips in and out of my back pocket. I would not use these glasses at my desk for work, or for reading a book in bed...No these glasses are just comfortable enough to get you through a restaurant menu or business meeting away from your own desk. In cases when I need glasses, I have them! Now the bad news, I purchased these glasses in July 2017 and already have broken the nose piece 3 times with normal use. Yes they have a lifetime warranty which is very seamless, but I have to pay $5 shipping. Since I bought the phone case AND the universal case , I have 2 pair on hand and so when 1 breaks, I order the warranty replacement for $5 and use the good one from last time. For me the hassle of breakage is worth it to always have my reading glasses on me, but I wish they would improve the nose piece to make it stronger and softer. Fix the nose and this 5 stars easy.

Best invention if you always forget your readers, but always have your phone - which we all do!
I got tired of trying to read a menu and realizing I had to run to the car to get my readers. I have another pair of Thin Optics, which fold flat and are great, but these are so convenient, and always with you - assuming your phone is always with you. They sit perfectly on the nose, and you can’t even feel that they are there. Also great for reading in bed if you happen to lay on your side so your partner doesn’t get disturbed by the blue light from your phone. Great product and value for the money. Highly recommend!

Perfect for Everyday Use and Always Handy
These are very handy. I attach the holder to the back of my cell phone case, so I always have them handy. I took off one star because they tend to get scratched up quite easily sliding them in and out of the case. Plus, the nose piece tends to break off.

Great product
These readers are so practical and effective. They are so slim that I carry them in my phone case. Great product.

Great in a pinch, but scratch too easily
These are really great to have, but they scratch super easily just sliding them back into the case. The case should have been lined with something that would prohibit scratching the lenses.

Even More Useful Than You Might Think
This review is relates back to my first pair of ThinOptics. They are utterly fantastic! Years ago I wore glasses. Then I opted for laser surgery and needed no glasses for years. Well, time marches on and now I need readers. I've bought lots of them and stashed them in different places to read, to use with my computer, to use with my cell phone, in the car, by my bed etc., etc., etc.. But no matter where I stashed them, I would end up taking them somewhere else and was inevitably hunting for readers. Worst of all, whenever I went out, it was impossible to read restaurant menus or read a receipt to calculate a tip without a pair of readers and the closest pair required a trip back out to my car. Then I happened on a rack displaying ThinOptics in the checkout line at a department store. It said I could store a pair of readers on the back of my phone. So, I bought them as an impulse purchase thinking that even if they were no good, didn't really work, or simply fell apart, they weren't very expensive to begin with and, if they actually did work, ...! In reality they exceeded my every expectation. So much so that I wrote this review (I'm not normally a review writer). I had to get over my initial self-consciousness of putting on these pince-nez style glasses (probably looks a tad geeky), but my self-consciousness passed quickly. I was now always able to read no matter where I was because I nearly always have my phone with me so I nearly always now have reading glasses. The only problem I had with them is that they tended to slide out of the case -- easily fixed with a small piece of scotch tape. After more than a year of hard use, they did finally break on me (the bridge separated), so I ordered just not one pair from Amazon, but two -- out of fear that, if the company ever went out of business, I might never get another pair. Then I noticed they had a lifetime warranty. So, after buying two more pair, I submitted an online warranty claim for my first pair and, no sweat, a replacement pair is on the way. Simple as could be. Don't hesitate to get yourself a pair. You won't regret it.

Handy for reading pill bottles, fit easily into a man's wallet.
Well, I don't know about sticking this to my cell phone case, but the case fits easily into one of the pockets of my wallet so it's always handy. It's just the thing when I encounter a badly printed ingredient label or replacing a watch battery. I find these comfortable and effective, but I don't use them for long stretches. I don't need them for reading books and magazines, only really bad printing or tiny work. I can read the tiny engraving on a watch movement with my +1.5 pair. Note also that I have an interpupillary distance of 65mm, which is exactly average for an American man; average for a woman is 62mm. So for me with my average-spaced middle-aged eyes with mild presbyopia (equal in both eyes), these work great for short stretches. If you have unusual or unequal eyes and intend to use them for hours at a time you may not find them so comfortable. In those cases you might consider getting the weakest pair that makes whatever you intend to do with them comfortable (e.g. reading medicine labels). As for fit, these stay on your nose pretty well, except on rare occasions when they shift around a bit. It helps then to wipe the spot you're perching them on and put them on a little more firmly.

Very Practical
It is very practical and useful. I sticked it behind my phone and now always carry it with me.

Hurts to wear these readers
I can’t give less than 1 star so that is why I gave 1 star. The design is poor as the frames hurt the nose as they are not padded and are like hard plastic blades cutting the nose. They also have to sit on the bottom of the nose not on the bridge as they are too narrow so you have to look down you nose to read. Despite sitting on bottom of the nose they atill feel like they are cutting into your nose. Not going to be able to use them as they are sore to wear.

Prompt delivery. Excellent innovation. Very usable and has good break resistance(must have fallen at least once a day since last 1 month).

Sleek and useful
I have been using these type of reading glasses, and this particular one is also the same great value. It sticks to back of your phone, with an adhesive tape though, and this way I always carry on. Wish they could do MagSafe type version too for iPhones. Doesn’t slip back in the case comfortably, for that I reduced one star in rating.
