How One Adjustable Pair of Glasses Replaced Every Pair in My House & Saved Me A Fortune
Limited Time Sale: 50% Off Ocularex Adjustable Glasses
By John Davids
Summary: I kept a different pair of glasses in every room and still couldn't find the right one. Then I tried a pair you set with a turn of a dial, and now I only need the one.
Somewhere after 50, my eyes started to drift. Reading the back of a packet, checking my phone, looking up at the telly… Each one wanted a different pair of glasses, and I never had the right ones to hand.
So I did what most people do. I bought more pairs. One by the bed, one in the kitchen, one in the car. And every few months my prescription would shift again, and the whole lot felt slightly off.
It was a faff, and, money-wise, it added up. Between the eye tests and the new lenses, I was spending far more than I'd ever admit to my wife.
A friend mentioned a pair you adjust yourself. I was doubtful, but I gave them a go. They're called Ocularex, and they've quietly sorted out a problem I'd put up with for years.
What Are They?
Ocularex is a single pair of glasses you set to suit your own eyes.
Instead of a fixed prescription, each lens has a small dial on the side. You turn it until things come into focus, and that's that.
The range runs from -6.00 dioptres for short-sight to +3.00 for long-sight. So one frame covers most of the range people reach for reading or distance glasses.
How Do They Work?
The clever bit is in the lenses. Each eye has two thin lenses sitting one in front of the other, and the dial on the side slides them across each other. As they move, the focus changes.
It takes a few seconds to get the hang of Ocularex:
- Put the glasses on.
- Turn the dial on each side until the page or the room looks sharp.
- Carry on with whatever you were doing.
The box has everything you need to get going: the glasses, a hard case, a cleaning cloth, and an eye chart to help you find your setting.
What Won Me Over
Reading and Distance in One Pair
The range runs from -6.00 dioptres for short sight to +3.00 for long sight, so the same frame handles the book in my lap and the number plate down the road.Set Each Eye Separately
My two eyes have never quite agreed with each other, and most off-the-shelf readers treat them as if they do. Here, each lens has its own dial, so I set the left and right on their own until both sides match.
Dial It In Yourself, in Seconds
You skip the appointment and the wait for lenses to be made up. Put them on, turn the dials until things look right, and you're sorted.A Fit That Suits Different Faces
The nose pads adjust and the arms have a bit of flex, so they settle comfortably whether your face is broad or narrow. That means more than one person in your household can use them.
Light & Robust
The frame is TR90, which is the flexible plastic used in sports glasses. It bends under pressure and springs back rather than snapping, and it barely registers on your face.Who Are They For?
Honestly, most of the house. My wife sets hers softer than mine, and we happily share the same frame style.
A few ways people use Ocularex:
A spare you can rely on.
If your usual glasses break or go missing, you've got a pair you can dial in straight away rather than squinting until your replacement arrives.
One pair across the day.
Reading in the morning, screen work, then looking across the garden in the evening, all from the same glasses.
Handy for hobbies.
I keep a pair with my fishing kit. Tying knots and spotting the float got a lot easier once I could fine-tune the focus on the spot.Would I Recommend Them?
After a few months of wearing them, yes. The thing I keep coming back to is how much simpler my day got. One pair instead of three, and I stopped second-guessing which drawer I'd left the right ones in.
There's the money side, too. When I added up what I'd been spending on new readers and replacement lenses every year, a single adjustable pair I could reset myself worked out far cheaper over time. It's paid for itself a few times over since.
What Do Others Think?
"Bought a pair for the car and one for the house. Wish I'd done it years ago instead of buying readers in threes."
"Took me a minute to trust the dials, but once they clicked, I haven't reached for my old pair. The case is sturdy too."
"Got these for my dad, who loses glasses constantly. He just resets them and gets on with it."
"I do a lot of close work with my hands and kept squinting through cheap readers. Set these once and they've been spot on since."
"Packed them for a week away instead of my usual two pairs. One less thing to lose at the airport."
"Was sceptical for the price, but they've held up to being knocked about in my bag for months."
How Much Do They Cost?
A single pair of Ocularex is currently £39.99, down 50% from £79.98 for this sale.
If there's more than one of you at home, the three-pair pack works out cheaper per pair: £79.99 in total, usually £199.97, a 60% saving. Or you can even get 5 pairs for 75% off.
There's also a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try them and send them back if they're not for you.
How Can They Be So Affordable?
Ocularex sells direct, online only. There’s no shop rent, no shelf space, and no retailer adding their margin on top. You're paying for the glasses rather than for the chain of people who'd normally sit between you and them.
That’s why they’re such great value.
How Do I Get the Real Ocularex?
You won't find Ocularex on Amazon or eBay, so if you spot it there, it isn't the real thing. The only place to get a genuine pair is the official website.
As of this week, the company is running a first-time-buyer discount while stock lasts.
