Popular manufacturers
There are many reading magnifiers available in optical stores today. It is worth stopping your gaze on some of the popular manufacturers.
Manual magnifier of the Feodosia Optical Plant LPPP 4x / 56 mm. The instrument has 4x magnification and a 56mm diameter double polymer lens. The lens itself is built into the structure, and the long handle fits comfortably in the hand. The model also has a special protection against dust adhesion. Small dimensions (177x67x19 mm) and low weight (50 g) make the magnifier very convenient to use and transport. The disadvantage of the device is the plastic case and the lack of backlighting.
Choice
Electronic loupes for the visually impaired should be selected based on the needs of the user. The device should be as comfortable to use as possible.The main selection criteria are as follows.
- Magnification range. Everything is extremely simple here. If a person has serious vision problems, then it is worth giving preference to advanced models with an indicator of up to 75x. In most cases, a magnification of up to 32x is sufficient.
- Screen diagonal. If there is a slight deterioration in vision, small screens can be used. It is also convenient to take them if the magnifier itself will be used only in tandem with a monitor or TV. In this case, there is simply no point in overpaying for the built-in display.
- The weight. It is of particular importance for retirees and people with certain diseases.

Where can I buy
Using magnifying glasses
Many companies provide a pleasant bonus for buyers: when buying goods for a certain amount, delivery will be at the expense of the seller, and not the buyer, as is usually the case. Of course, shopping on the Internet has its drawbacks, for example, you can study the device in detail only after receiving it. But for this, they invented sending by cash on delivery, so that the buyer, before giving the money, could look closely at the product. Therefore, if there is no specialized store in your city, then buying through the Internet is the only opportunity to purchase magnifying glasses in the shortest possible time and without overpayments.
What it is?
It should be noted right away that magnifying glasses are not a means for cardinal correction of vision, but an auxiliary ophthalmological accessory for household use, as well as use in some professions related to the examination of small parts and objects. A modern optical device is a good way out of such situations.
Magnifying glasses combine the characteristics of ordinary glasses and a magnifying glass, at the same time they have a shape almost like ordinary glasses, which does not cause discomfort when using them, and lenses like a magnifier provide multiple (up to 160%) magnification, which is impossible with ordinary glasses.
