The frame of the LED glasses has four CR1025 batteries fitted into the frame to provide up to 30 hours of illumination. The lights automatically turn on when the frame is opened and turn off when the frame is closed.

The optical quality frames are made of plastic, high-quality refractive lenses. Available in three different strengths of +1.5, +2.0, +2.5, you have to be presbyotic or nearsighted to use them. The glasses also come with a cleaning cloth and a protective case of 6 1/2 x 2 inches.

The glasses clearly illuminate the area of focus with super-bright LEDs while keeping the surrounding area in darkness. The lights can be used while reading in bed, without disturbing the sleeping partner; repair a fuse during a power outage, or read in the car without inconveniencing the driver.

The product, which comes with a lifetime guarantee, is being marketed by Hammacher Schlemmer, the longest running catalog of US.
