ABSTRACT:
Reading glasses including side view blocking temples and opaque lenses have narrow horizontal slits for reading focused text while blocking peripheral distractions. The glasses are internally illuminated with uniformly brightly-colored luminescent material to compensate for light deprivation caused by the blocking. In a described embodiment, the opaque lenses are made by applying black pigment to standard prescription lenses and glow-in-the-dark material is applied to the inside of the lenses.
