Half-Rimless: A half-rimless eyeglasses frame design has a rim on part of the frame’s eye holding a lens, usually on the top half. In most cases the bottom part of the lens is held in place by a nylon cord, but some frames are drill mounted so the cord is not necessary. The frame on a half-rimless frame is most commonly on the top of the lens, although occasionally it is located on the bottom of the lens.
Reading glasses: This is a generic term that refers to eyeglasses frames that hold lenses that are used only for reading (near vision). A reading lens simply magnifies objects that are close to us, like the letters in a book. Your eye doctor can determine the magnification “power” that is best for you, or you can figure it out by yourself through trial and error. Once you know your power, it is easy to shop for reading glasses online.
A doctor’s prescription is not required in order to select a reading lens. Drugstore “reading glasses” are simply eyeglasses frames with lenses “pre-loaded” in a range of magnification powers. It is usually less expensive to purchase reading eyeglasses this way, but stock lens powers may not provide a perfect vision correction. For best results, reading lenses with magnification customized to your needs can be installed in any pair of eyeglasses frames or rx-able sunglasses frames.

Rimless: Rimless and semi-rimless glasses are common variations that differ from regular glasses in that their frames do not completely encircle the lenses.
