Mini Reading Glasses — Small Frame, Big on Quality


The reading glass that started it all.

MicroVision's mini reading glasses have been in production for over 30 years. The Original Mini Reader is where the brand began — an iconic small-frame design that's been refined over three decades without losing what made it special: compact, lightweight, and genuinely comfortable to wear all day.

The frame is durable stainless steel, light enough to forget you're wearing it. The lenses are PMMA polymer — optically clear, scratch-resistant, and noticeably better than the basic plastic you'll find in cheaper readers. Fully spring-loaded temple hinges mean the frame opens smoothly and holds its shape through years of daily use, not just months.

It all tucks away into a sleek aluminium case with a protective sleeve — slim enough for a shirt pocket, a jacket pocket, or the small compartment of a handbag.

What's included:
— PMMA polymer lenses, optically clear
— Durable stainless steel frame
— Fully spring-loaded temple hinges
— Slim aluminium case with protective sleeve
— 9 colours to choose from
— Lens strengths: +1.0, +1.5, +2.0, +2.5, +3.0

Most of our customers own more than one pair — one for the kitchen, one for the car, one for travel. With nine colours, it's easy to tell them apart.

What’s My Power?

Follow this simple formula: your age, minus 35, divided by 10.

For example, if you’re 55 years of age, subtract 35 for a total of 20. Then, divided by 10, your typical reading power would be +2.00.

Your purchase can also be returned for an even exchange within the first 30 days of purchase, no questions asked.
