I have often wondered who intenveted reading glasses.  I know why reading glasses were invented but often wondered who thought of this wonderful idea.  It amazes me how much reading glasses have changed over the years.  There are so many options available for people that require reading glasses.  I hope that you find the following information as interesting as I did.

  Sometimes known as readers, reading glasses help change the focal length of the eye to alleviate myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. There is much debate on the that year glasses were invented but by most accounts, they were in use in China in the 12th century. Wide use of reading glasses weren't reported in Europe until the late 13th century. Ben Franklin invented bifocal lenses in 1784 to prevent him from having to switch glasses. George Airy invented astigmatism glasses in 1827.

Diopters are the unit of measurement used for the power of a lens. Over the counter reading glasses are usually in the +1 to +3 diopter range. The diopter range for those with nearsightedness (myopia) will always be in the negative range. Prescription lenses are those that are prescribed to an individual by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. They're designed to conform to a specific level of myopia or hyperopia.

Computer eyewear is another form of glasses taking the market by storm. With over 88 million people using a computer regularly for work or school, this type of vision correction is a burgeoning market. Computer glasses help to cut down on monitor glare as well as help prevent strain on the eyes since you read at a different distance and size than normal printed material.

Wholesale discount reading glasses can be sold in almost any retail location.  I have even seen discount reading glasses in the mini markets at gas stations.  Wholesale discount reading glasses can be found on th internet from many reputable companies.  These companies generally sell the wholesale reading glasses in lots of 1 dozen or in display packages of 24 or 36 pair.  The reading glasses are usually sold in an assortment of lens powers as well.  Everyone's eyesight is different therefore everyone's need for reading glasses is different. Having the assortment of lens powers inables you as the retailer to target a wider variety of customers.  

  If you are a retailer and already sell reading glasses, you may consider adding accessories for readers to your list of products.  Many people that wear reading glasses like the cords that attach to the glasses allowing them to hang around your neck when not in use.  These items are great for people who use the glasses for reading but don't necessarily need to wear their reading glasses all the time.  This allows the person to locate their glasses when they need them without hunting all over for them.   Another item that is handy for reading glasses is the Micro Fiber Clothes and Bags.  These items work great for cleaning the lenses and storing the reading glasses when not in use.

  At CTS Wholesale we carry many wholesale accessories that work well with reading glasses.  The cords start at only $1.00 per dozen and the Micro Fiber Clothes and Bags are only $1.00 and $3.00 per dozen.  These are the lowest wholesale prices anywhere on these items.  If you would like to consider adding these items to your retail location, visit our website today to see all of the items and the low wholesale prices.

  Clip on sunglasses are extremly popular with prescription eyeglass wearers.  Clip on sunglasses are a low cost, very effective solution to high cost perscription sunglasses.  Perscription sunglasses can cost hundreds of dollars and are not as convient as clip on sunglasses.  Clip ons attach on to any perscription glasses and offer imediate relief from the harmful, glaring rays of the sun.

  At CTS Wholesale we have many different types of wholesale clip on sunglasses.  Our clip on sunglasses come in an array of shapes and sizes to fit most perscription eyeglasses.  Our clip ons also come in pre-sorted in two different shades of amber and black colored lenses.  Be sure to add wholesale clip on sunglasses to your sunglass or optical retail location today.  Visit our website to see all of the clip on sunglasses we have to offer.

If you are looking to sell reading glasses, but aren't sure on which ones to get, how about going with one of our best selling types of reading glasses?

CTS Wholesale offers several styles of reading glasses that come in a 36 pair display box, similar to the display pictured on the left.  Wholesale pricing on these 36 pair display sets come out to less than $2 a pair, so by selling them at the suggested retail price of $8 - $10 per pair, profits upwards of 500% are easily obtainable.  That is why many of our customers like buying reading glasses in wholesale; the profits to be made from these are quite high.

An added plus to our 36 pair display sets is that you can display many pairs of reading glasses in a small amount of space.  This helps many of our customers who find that their counter top display area is rather limited.

If you haven't seen our line of 36 pair display sets, feel free to browse our selection of reading glasses at www.ctswholesalesunglasses.com and see if we have what you need.

If you're reading a book, newspaper, or magazine and the text looks like the text on the left, you probably should consider getting some reading glasses.  Reading glasses will improve your clarity of vision and redce the strain on your eyes.

CTS Wholesale carries a large stock of reading glasses in many different styles and lens powers.  We offer these reading glasses at low prices complete with great customer service.  As an added bonus, we also offer tiered volume discounts on orders $500 or more.  If you're looking for a great provider of wholesale reading glasses, then be sure to think of CTS Wholesale.

If you're selling reading glasses, then you know that how and where you display them play a big factor in making sales.  Many of the times, a floor display isn't a practical solution, for a variety of reasons.  Then you may need to consider a counter top display.   You could purchase a counter top display, or you could consider alternatives.  One successful alternative many of our customers have used is to display reading glasses with the box they came in. 

Many of our styles of reading glasses, such as the R129, come in a display box similar to the one pictured above.  This display box holds 36 pair of reading glasses with their included cases, and takes up very little precious counter space.

So if you're looking to display your reading glasses on counter tops, consider using the included display boxes from our line of wholesale reading glasses.

Many people come to the realization that they just cannot read as easily as they could when they were younger. For many people, as they grow older, their eyes succumb to the effects of presbyopia.

Presbyopia, as explained by Wikipedia, “describes the condition where the eye exhibits a progressively diminished ability to focus on near objects with age”. It is a natural, age related condition similar to gray hair or wrinkles. 

As there is no readily available cure to presbyopia, reading glasses become the most viable option of treatment. Reading glasses counter the effects of near-vision problems, allowing the wearer to read with ease.

CTS Wholesale carries a wide selection of reading glasses, with many different lens powers to adjust to the levels of presbyopia you or your customers may have. You can check out our entire collection of readers online at www.ctswholesalesunglasses.com.
