Dial Vision Review: Adjustable Glasses
• Excellent for backup or emergency
• Inexpensive
• Scratch resistant
• Not stylish
• Not high quality
Those who are realistic about the function of Dial Vision will find the product useful. It isn't meant to be a replacement for high quality prescription glasses, but would work well in temporarily replace lost or damaged glasses.

Dial Vision Reviews
Dial Vision is advertised as an adjustable set of glasses in which each lens can be individually customized. Each lens can be adjusted individually, allowing even complex prescriptions to be duplicated.
Dial Vision is available without prescription, and the advertising points out that it is meant to be a backup pair of glasses, not to replace regular prescription glasses.
Indeed, the appearance of Dial Vision is certainly not up to the standard of quality prescription frames. It has more of a “work glasses” look than that of a pair of designer frames.
Despite it’s rather unattractive design, we found that it worked well for reading glasses or for distance, as demonstrated in the video below. Night vision was acceptable, although the glass tends to look streaked with reflected light.
If you are realistic about your expectations, Dial Vision could be of use as a backup or emergency pair of glasses. It isn’t as well-made as those prescribed by an optometrist, but could be useful in a pinch.

Didn’t deliver the eye chart.
Worst waste of money ever, due to the poor quality of the materials used in it’s construction. Idea is okay, but these glasses won’t stay on anybody due to flimsy frame & temples. They are so cheaply made, if you saw them you’d never take them home even if they were giving them away.
When I read your advert for these glasses , I thought these are just what I am looking for…I read with interest about providing 20/20 vision and a host of superlatives endorsing your wonderful product. So I paid my £17 and waited for these fantastic glasses to arrive. Eventually they arrived from China.. I was shocked when I saw them. The lens’s are plastic, the frames are floppy and the adjustable wheels don’t work.. If I saw them in a £1 shop I would’t even buy them at that price. In disgust they have gone in the bin…Never again !!!
