Here is an example from aliexpress:

BOYSEEN Glasses Clip With Presbyopic plus 
+0.5~+3.5 Reading Glasses Cilp With Case Can 
Be Clipped Onto Myopia Glasses For Use

Before the tariffs I got 3 pair for about $8.50, when I order again it looks 
like one pair will cost about $7 (with shipping).

Two things:

   * I (or my firefox browser (v.133) on linux) has trouble making payments to 
aliexpress with either PayPal or a credit card -- for the previous order I had 
to go to my local library and use a Windows computer to conclude the purchase. 
:-(

   *  The clip on these glasses seems a little bigger than the clip on similar 
sunglasses that I use -- part of it rubs on my nose.  Not a problem for short 
term wear but it does get aggravating.  That doesn't happen with the 
sunglasses.
