At ThinOptics, our concept is simple enough -- since your smartphone is always with you, we set out to develop thin, comfortable reading glasses that fit on the back of your phone. Reading Glasses Backed By Sophisticated Technology When we started this journey, friends wondered if we were insane to assemble a dream team in Silicon Valley to create the perfect reading glasses. With our collective specialties and resources, we estimated that it would take six months of development to make these glasses, but instead, it took over 30 months. Our challenge was to make our glasses fit comfortably. Not for 90%, but for 100% of all users. As we developed ThinOptics reading glasses, we tested hundreds of prototypes on thousands of noses. Because ThinOptics reading glasses have to work as well as your cell phone does, every single time you use them.
