Look Great in Readers with Look Optic
Readers don’t have to look like Readers.
The sun is out and our crew was on the hunt for some new shades- then we came across a brand that not only makes some cool shades, but some legit comfortable readers. Look Optic is here to help make wearing readers a fun, fashionable and fearless experience – wherever you need to read the fine print. Every pair is designed to make anyone look and feel their absolute best, in any and every situation (even the most dimly lit ones). Look Optic makes easy to wear, lightweight frame reading glasses that are designed to make you look and feel your absolute best, no matter the environment, light conditions, or vibe.
Look Optic lenses are made with prescription quality that let you see the world like never before. But what the heck is a reader? Well, glad you asked! Considered to be the most common style of reading glasses, full readers contain a single magnification throughout the entire lens. Readers are most often used for the small print on the menu, grabbing your favorite book and staring at the small print while wondering why you are squinting- ya know…things that involve reading. While our crew enjoys the sun, we wanted to dive into a pair of shades that were featured on Look Optic for the summer ahead.
INITIAL IMPRESSIONS
Look Optic found a problem with most glasses- they are not comfortable, many require a prescription when you may not need one, and the word “readers” screams old person. Sorry, but it is true- the phrase just sounds dated. So, Look Optic did something about it. The dove into the problems with traditional readers, went under the hood to find ways to make it better, and simply did that. And they did it very well.
Look Optic made highly durable and lightweight frames, dropped in some spring hinges for comfort, added a CR-39 Glass, scratch resistent UV400 protected lense and the coolest part- included a wire-core temple to allow you to adjust the fit without having to heat them up! Our crew grabbed a pair of the Sullivan Sun sunglasses for the review- cause, you know you read in the sun too ya know!

TESTING IT OUT
We grabbed a pair, and right out of the box loved the weight of the shades, the sleek design, and the feel of the frames. The dark color was bold, and the frames were really clean. and crisp when staring through them. The added blue-light elements helped when looking at our phones out by the pool, and the flexible adjustment was so easy to adjust to our specific head shape. These shades were not so slim we felt they would break, but were just the right amount of bulk to know if we dropped them they would not shatter.

COMFORT
When it comes to finding sunglasses, one of our biggest selling points is the overall comfort. If shades are not comfortable to wear all day, what is the point? Well, in terms of comfort we are diggin’ the Look Optic comfort factor. Each frame was extremely lightweight, fit our head perfectly after adjusting the wire frame, and did not have uncomfortable pressure points on the nose or ears. The frame design is thin and lightweight, and at times we forgot we even had them on. Good range of eye motion and no random blocks in vision when we looked N/E/S/W.
Overall we would say the comfort score is a 10/10
DURABILITY
Durability is something that is not only important in building, bridges, and castles (random reference we know). It matters in your sunglasses too.
If you are one of those delicate sunglasses wearers- you know, you put them back in the case after each use, than you are not our people. If you are a toss on the seat, drop on the ground, fall off your head when you are playing competitive volleyball on the beach- than YOU ARE OUR PEOPLE. So, naturally that is how we test for a sunglasses’ durability. Well, you are in luck. We did ALL the things in these (hey, that is none of your business), and they held up better than that bottle of scotch in your cabinet. After weeks of abuse, use, wear and tear- the shades did not break or bend. The repeated exposure to car sun didn’t even phase these puppies.
Overall we would say the durability score is a 9/10
OVERALL
What can we say other than we are in love with these shades and readers. All the elements that went into these from the design, to the materials and look when we repped them around town were spot on. The lenses were not overly dark where we felt like we needed a reading light while wearing readers (how awkward would that be?), but just blocked the sun enough to feel like we were ready for the long days ahead. Overall we loved the readers, the lenses, the weight and the look of these by Look Optic.
Overall Score: 9/10

BRAND INFO
“Then while shopping for new frames, I discovered that all I really needed was readers (+1.0 to be exact). However, as the selection and quality was so poor I saw an opportunity - to provide consumers with the highest quality readers available, in classic styles and colors for every occasion, and priced so that you can buy multiple pairs.”
“After months in denial, unable to read the paper or see a menu without the light on my phone, I purchased my first pair of (very expensive) prescription glasses. For a few days it was exciting, wearing glasses gave me a new LOOK. But, quickly I realized it was like owning one pair of shoes and having to wear them every day!”
