The bridge piece could be more comfortable. I would prefer to have individual supports on either side to provide a degree of flexibility for those of us whose face is not perfectly symmetrical.

I wanted a pair of specs that were simple for watching TV, cinema, sport, theatre etc, especially when I slump down and peer through different levels of the lens (compare varifocals). They fill this requirement completely. They are strong and comfortable.

The plastic(?) nose bridge looks and feels cheap, and it leaves an indentation mark when glasses removed. I would prefere the frame to be wider by a few mm, as the legs are stretched outwards when I wear them this leaves an indentation mark on the side of my head when I take them off.

I needed a spare pair of spectacles for my work. I generally like oversized aviator glasses normally for sunglasses, but the principle that they allow a large span of uninterrupted frame viewing applies to my needs in this case. My eyes can focus on all the instruments that I need without having to move my head or being inturrupted by the frame which occurs with my other slimmer framed glasses. Ideal for me because they are also sturdy and strong.

Large frames are not to everyones taste. Normally ok as sunglasses....eg Rayban Aviators, not necessarily so with clear lenses!
