10X Lighted Large Handheld Reading Magnifier Glasses with 18 LED Lights for Macular Degeneration, Seniors & Kids Reading, Inspection, Coins, Jewelry, Exploring

Great buy! Nice design, love the 3 levels of brightness. I have others, but this is the best.

My vision is less sharp than it once was and I often need a magnifying glass, and I usually use the light feature. Works well and is very helpful.Regarding10x magnification: this refers to area, not linear dimension. So if a number or letter is 1/4 inch high unmagnified it will NOT be 2 1/2 inches high when magnified x10. But if something covers one square inch (a square one inch on a side) it will be 10 square inches magnified. A square of 10 square inches would be a little over 3 inches on a side (square root of 10).I have seen many reviews saying the magnification is only 3x, which is what you might conclude if you are thinking in linear dimension rather than area.

It's not 10x... more like 3x. But once you know that, it's a great 3x magnifier. The light is excellent.

Compared this to a model over $5 more expensive, and this one was the same quality with more lighting features. I bought it to look at the details in an art book in which all the pieces have been shrunk down to a large thumbnail size, and this provided enough magnification to be able to look at them without as much strain.

As I age, my eyes are not what they used to be. Lately, I've been collecting magnifying glasses, leaving one at every place I might want to read anything, because normal text is much too small & blurry for me.This glass is my favorite. Do not discount the value of the ergonomics. The glass is easy to hold & use. I don't have much use for the multi-colored LEDs, but I can see that it might be handy. The image is pretty much distortion free.A minor nit: I'm not sure it fully magnifies by 10x -- for example, this glass produces a more magnified image: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08K541BPW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s04?ie=UTF8&th=1 But of the two, this one feels best in my hand, the built-in lights are bright & useful, and the image is excellent. Between the two choices, I'd choose this one first.

For anyone dealing with AMD, you know the struggle... seems our world gets a bit darker every day and the light required to read increases almost daily. I had a couple one-setting lighted magnifiers and they worked for quite a while but weren't cutting it any more. So Idecided to try 2 of these. I was really impressed. Yes, getting the batteries in is a bit tricky - just get that center one down lower where it belongs then the other 2 are pretty easy to install.i love the 3 light setting on this and whatever combo that 3rd setting is fabulous for me. What an incredible difference.I initially bought 2 then came back for another 2. Living room, kitchen, office and bedroom. Honestly, I'm thinking of getting a couple of more just to keep as spares b/c they're THAT good.AMD friends (or anyone struggling w/some degree of impared vision), give one of these a try.

I have Macular Degeneration and have difficulty seeing the menu in most restaurants. This magnifying glass is fantastic! It's not too heavy, it fits in my purse (although my purse is large) but the best part is it has 3 different lighting levels. It's now bright enough to see the menu and the print is large enough to read!!! I love this magnifying glass and recommend it to anyone with vision problems!!!

There is a lot to like about this magnifier - the LEDs are bright. Lens is crystal clear. Color of LEDs switchable between warm white or cool white..Unfortunately the magnifier suffers from a lack of durability. If you drop it it is pretty much toast. The first time it happened I figured it was a bad light, so I ordered a new one. Within 2 weeks I toasted it. Suspecting this was a design issue, the magnifier had everything I wanted except durability. I decided to give it one last try and ordered a third one. It soon went the way of the first two.That's 3 magnifier in 6 months. I would say if you are in an environment where it never gets dropped, then this may still be a good magnifier for you, otherwise I would keep looking.
