They have all strengths from about +1 to +4. You can try them on to see which ones suit you best. The frames are metal and the quality seems to be as good as the ones priced at $20. You can even get magnification sunglasses and like the name implies they are only $1 each.
I dreaded turning 40, but thanks to God, I still have great non corrected vision at 48. I can read the 1/16" characters on my phone, so I guess I'm good to go.
