Cross Sun Readers are Best Bet for Beach Travels

Take your reading outdoors this summer with the newest glasses from Cross®. From the maker of precision writing instruments come precision reading glasses that eliminate 99% of harmful UV rays. Cross Sun Readers are available in six magnification powers, ranging from 1.00-2.50.

Slim, stylish and sporty, the Sun Reader is a full-framed reading glass for men and women in a flattering jasper color – a brown hue. With a suggested retail price of $25, this travel accessory for beach or boat is a summer essential at a pretty price that won’t make you wince if your glasses don’t make it home from your far-flung adventure.

The Cross Sun Reader features aspheric lenses that are exceptionally flat, thin and light. The Sun Reader lenses have 99% UV protection and a scratch-resistant coating to extend the life of the glasses. A Cross integrated spring temple makes these glasses especially flexible to reduce breakage, and along with adjustable nose pads, provides enhanced comfort. The centers of these lenses are precisely aligned to reduce eye strain and to eliminate distortion when the wearer looks away from the center of the lens.

Two styles, Cirrus for women and Stratus for men, are available beginning in June 2006 at Cross stores, and select retailers. Cross also offers its enormously popular readers in four styles and six powers.
