- Rick A.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoMy new Mako XL Readers are INCREDIBLE!
I do a lot of fly fishing in Colorado, and great polarized lenses are an absolute must. Being a little older, I also have trouble tying on small flies, so I always make sure to keep my readers handy when I’m on the water.
Recently, I was searching for a new pair of fishing glasses and came across the Island Optics website. I was impressed by what I read and was ready to place my order when I saw that I could get their glasses with progressive readers. Game changer!
I placed an order, and am so glad I did. The frames and lenses are every bit as good as—and honestly better than—the other high-priced fishing glasses brands I’ve tried. The progressive readers built into the lenses are amazing, and the lens clarity, quality, and price point make these glasses a no-brainer.
I’ll be wearing Island Optics glasses on the water from now on. I highly recommend them, especially if you need a little extra help with close-up work. Their progressive readers are incredible—and their customer service is world class. Thanks, Island Optics!
