Starting to need some for low light conditions to read. Anyone have a certain style they recommend? I have seen the "CliC style". Prefer something lightweight, maybe something I don't have to set down all the time.

Those Clics are the tits.
I still have 20/20 but you put something up close and I can't read it. I only 1.5x I've got no less than 10 pair of those walmart readers laying around but I wear the clics at work and when I'm piddling around the house and on other folks property.

+1.5 is what I need. Good to know those are handy.

I don't have a particularly big head, actually it is a medium but every time I turn my head a little with Clics on they come apart. I finally just gave them away. I was using the largest size they have too after speaking with their customer service.

Now I just use the $7 ones found at the front of Lowes. After trying a number of what I consider disposable ones I like those the best. The brand name is Hillman. I think they are considered safety glasses so that is a plus too.

I have found the Foster Grant Ironman models to be pretty durable.

Lucky. I'd trade a finger for only needing readers.

I have a pair of those that I like and another pair as spares. I have about a dozen pairs of cheap readers. Several in my truck, several in my home office and then a pair anywhere I might grab something to read, yes, that includes the toilet. After losing a nice, expensive pair, I've gone with the cheap ones since then.

Never knew that readers were/are a fashion statement, I always thought you got a pair at Walmarts, CVS, Rite Aid on the $5 isle

I buy in bulk. Since I will break or lose them, why get an expensive pair? I have them everywhere; truck, boat, toilet, hunting backpack, etc.

3.25 but have good distance vision. I’m going Tuesday and get a pair of trifocals I can leave on. Tired of constantly taking them on and off when I’m working on something. If it’s your first readers remember to take them off when not reading because you won’t be able to see where you’re walking. That’s how I ran into my JD mower and tore the hood completely off it.

I buy the (3) packs at Walgreens, DG, Walmart, wherever for $15. They are everywhere around the house, truck, hunting camp, etc.

Clics. Wear them around your neck just like your sunglasses. Get the ones with the rubber strap. That way you have them on you all the time and you not looking for a pair.
