With this Bifocal Reading Glasses site I’ll provide you with history and background information on bifocal reading glasses as well some specific information to consider before you buy yourself the perfect set of bifocals. This site will be half a hobby site about this curious, cozy invention from Benjamin Franklin and half a practical consumer site for helping people make smart decisions when shopping for bifocal reading glasses.
I will address a range of styles and purposes, but I will largely focus on traditional bifocal glasses for reading. I still find this classic device a utility of great function, comfort and I even find it a cozy tradition. I enjoy glancing from my wife to my reading without adjusting my spectacles and I am very relieved to not have to poke lenses on to my damp, delicate eyes. In other words, I’m not terribly fond of contact lenses. You may also see bifocals referred to as Executive Bifocals or Franklin Glasses.
I hope you find Bifocal Reading Glasses worth your time!

Too many people have a stereotype about bifocal reading glasses; they envision thick-lensed, over-sized caricatures of reading glasses and rarely imagine sleek, stylish rimless bifocals. Surprisingly, you can actually find a wide variety of stylish bifocal glasses these days. Among them are the rimless eyeglasses.
There are several types of rimless eyeglasses from which to choose. This variety manifests itself both in style and in function. Semi-rimless (half-rimless) and three-piece rimless eyeglasses have become more commonplace. They distinguish themselves from normal reading glasses by frames which do not entirely encircle the lenses. In fact, the three-piece rimless eyeglass features no frame about the lens at all, with the temples and bridge anchored right on the lens.
Glasses with a semi-rimless design will feature a frame which only encircles a portion of the frame (usually the top). The semi-rimless eyeglass was introduced back in the 1930s. At that time frame builders screwed the lens directly to the frame front. Today most semi-rimless eyeglasses have the lenses secured within the frame with strong nylon wire.
