I LOVE THEM!!! Within an hour of first putting them on, my posture was better and various aches and pains began to quickly subside. I simply wouldn’t be without them now.

I’m a dedicated beader, so do a lot of encrusted bead stitching and some jewelry-making. I am so delighted with the lenses because they are really making a difference in my ability to work at my art. I was getting to the point of wondering if I would have the physical capacity to continue into more longterm projects because of the neck, shoulder, back, and muscle-strain.

This happened at the time when I was really developing skill and confidence in the art pieces I was doing, and the physical strain was beginning to cause me some anticipatory doubt and grief. Because of the nature of beading, it’s slow art, so there’s little to be done but go through the necessary stitching processes. The CraftOptics lenses have so successfully contributed to a better and more sustainable posture that I am hopeful of truly being able to work on a number of major projects.

I’ve found that I can also see easily to pick up my beads by elevating them to a suitable level that means I need only move my body forward slightly each time I need to pick up, so they remain in focus and I can easily see the holes for the needle to enter. Otherwise, I do look around the telescope part for other things appropriate to the prescription lenses themselves.

I carefully reviewed all the videos before the package even arrived, so was well-prepared to put them on and get to work.
