The advantages are many, Grock. 
- Weightless on the nose due to balancing over the ears; invaluable to those of us who need to look both through and over our reading glasses frequently due to work in front of a monitor and lots of reading/writing at the same desk.
- They don't fall off when I bend over or slide down my nose over time.
- They don't fall off or get in the way when I stand on my head in an engine bay or roll around on a creeper under a truck.
- The are ALWAYS with me, even when wearing a plain tee shirt....or no shirt.
- They never fall out of my pocket when I bend over because they are not IN a pocket, ever.
- They stay clean and don't get scratched because they don't get handled in/out of a pocket or case.

Hmmm. Never heard of these Click Readers....went to their page. OK, they come apart, have a headband.
Not seeing what the point it, other than I guess they can be a bit smaller in a pocket? I guess I need a
demo of their "advantage"- other than wrecking your compass readings.
They are great! You never take them off/leave them laying around/lost! At home I have a pair of readers in every room. and then flip them up on my head and drag them around then 3 pairs in same place. However - in the truck is a pair of the Click Readers! Hang them and never lay them down. Awesome! At a guns how I had 3 people offer to buy them from me in 45 minutes! I need to get another pair for the house. Tip: Ge the large unless you wear a 6 7/8 or smaller hat!

I got my first set five or more years ago (wearing them right now) before I really needed them and before they had a wide version. I simply cut them in two at the middle of the band (through the raised "Cl" and "ic") and put them back together with two inches of heavy, adhesive lined heat shrink tubing to separate the ends by about 3/4" and relieve the pressure on my temples. The raised letters bite the tubing and keep the ends from pulling apart.
The lenses aren't glass but are extremely tough. The only thing that has hurt them in all these years has been welding spatter from welding over my head

OK, Ian, I will see if I can find some, give them a try. Falling out of shirt pockets.....all the time.
But if in a cloth sleeve, they will be OK, but still a nuisance, for sure.
My biggest breakthrough is the titanium memory alloy frames, you CANNOT hurt them. So, my expensive
bifocals slide into a Walmart cheapo reader cloth case to stop scratches and then into a front jeans
pocket. No amount of bending or anything will hurt them in the slightest. No scratches due to the
cloth sleeve.
But sounds like I need to explore another alternative, too.
