Sound the nerd alert: the Supine Reading Glasses from Hammacher Schlemmer let you read a book while flat on your back. That’s right, no more holding the book above your head. Just hold it upright and let the “two optical-quality glass prisms” bend your vision 90 degrees.

Aside from reading in bed, you can also use these glasses “outdoors on a hammock, a chaise, or on the beach” according to the product description. Not having to crane your neck will cost you, though, as these babies fetch $50.
