Keep Your Reading Glasses Handy with ThinOptics Convenient Glasses That Stick to the Back of Your Phone

A Spark of Inspiration: One day, Teddy Shalon and his friend went on a bike ride. During a short break, his friend needed to check the text messages on his phone, but he had forgotten his reading glasses. Growing frustrated, he asked Teddy to read the messages for him. At this point, an idea popped into Teddy’s head – what if he could develop a pair of convenient reading glasses that fit onto the backs of all cell phones?

Reading Glasses Needed an Upgrade: With this new idea in mind, Teddy assembled a team of Silicon Valley veterans. They understood that our phones get an upgrade each year – from screens to resolution, to even the carrying cases. But each year, the reading glasses required to see the screens stayed the same. They were bulky, broke easily, and often ended up lost. Pinpointing these issues, his team got to work…

A Reading Glasses Revolution: After testing and developing what would become ThinOptics for over 2 years, Teddy and his team created a pair of reading glasses that were thin, incredibly durable, and comfortable for 100% of users. And they can be stored in a super slim case that sticks to the back of your phone for ultra-convenience. Teddy and his team had created the massive upgrade that reading glasses needed for our modern age.

Teddy and his team of Silicon Valley developers sit on the cutting edge of optic designs, as evidenced by their use of medical device materials. Super-elastic memory-metal alloy used for heart stents and incredibly slim, bulletproof-strong polycarbonate lenses are used in every pair of ThinOptics. In fact, you can say ThinOptics reading glasses are not a gadget – they’re a revolutionary new vision platform.
