Written by the company

Welcome to RAU Readers, where clarity, quality and style come together in every pair of (reading) glasses. We believe that wearing reading glasses isn’t a sign of aging, but a celebration of a life full of experience. You deserve to see well and look great doing it. Did you know that RAU Readers is a 100% Dutch brand? We design, produce and distribute everything ourselves, giving us full control over every step and allowing us to make more conscious choices, from recycled materials for our frames to FSC-certified packaging. Our collection proves that style doesn’t have to be expensive. We create reading glasses, sunglasses, screen glasses and multifocal glasses with a perfect fit. They’re lightweight, durable and equipped with high-quality lenses, something we probably owe to more than 30 years of experience in optics. SEE SHARP. LOOK SHARP.

The reading glasses look good

The reading glasses look good, a bit smaller than expected, but the main thing is that the glass had maybe an extra filter that made it iridescent and mirroring. This was not mentioned in the description. Unfortunately, I cannot use them and return is not very easy. So, for sure I will not buy again from this company glasses.

Dear Anna,

Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear that you like the design of the reading glasses.
We would like to clarify that the lenses are equipped with an anti-reflective coating. We’re sorry that this appeared iridescent or mirror-like to you and that this was not clearly stated in the product description.
Our apologies as well for the delayed response. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate your details based on your first name alone. We would be happy to assist you and make the return process as easy as possible. Could you please send us an email or give us a call? That way, we can help you find a suitable solution.

Kind regards,
Tom.

Good quality glasses

Good quality glasses! When I put them on, I instantly feel my eyes relax from having less blue light. The frame feels sturdy. It has springs in the frame that add strength when opening and closing the earpieces. To me, the springs are unnecessary, but they seem decent quality. I have a bigger head than average and the glasses fit well. I can feel it put a tiny bit of pressure above my ears, but it's not pinching. I could wear this for hours without bother.

I ordered two pairs of variable lens…

I ordered two pairs of variable lens reading glasses. One matt grey and one matt black. The lenses are ok, and the glasses look fine, nice quality for the price, but after wearing the black glasses for a few hours, i took them off and saw that i had two thick black stripes above my ears. Not the look i was going for. The colour had bled onto my skin. With some scrubbing it washed off luckily. I wiped the frames with a damp white cloth and each time , more black stains. So in all I'm disappointed that I spent €59 on these. The grey ones seem better so I guess I'll just have to swallow the loss of one pair.
