There are several types of reading glasses out there, and they all address the problem of being unable to focus on materials that are close by. If you spend a lot of time concentrating on printed words or on a computer screen, then you may want to consider investing in a pair of single-vision reading glasses.
There are two main types of reading glasses: full-eye frames and half-eye frames. In full-framed glasses, the entire lens is a prescription lens and the frames sit close to the eye. If you were to look into the distance wearing these glasses, everything would appear blurry. Meanwhile, in half-eye frames, the lenses are much smaller and sit further down the nose, allowing you to look both at material close up and to look over the lenses into the distance.
If you're looking for reading glasses, you've most certainly come to the right place. At SmartBuyGlasses, we're proud to stock a great range of affordable reading glasses that don't just do the job - they look great too.

zFORT™ Blue Light Block
Let's face it - technology is here to stay. While we can try to limit our usage, we’re ultimately pretty dependent on it. However, with more screens comes more blue light. So, we've created something to help negate its side effects. We call it zFORT™. It’s blue light blocking technology. What’s that, you ask? It’s a special filter that blocks potentially harmful short-wavelength light that can damage the eye. Through limiting the penetration of this type of light, zFORT™ provides ‘fort-like’ protection to the eye.
There are four key benefits to using zFORT™ blue light blocking lenses: glare elimination, eye strain reduction, sleep improvement and headache reduction.
