Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have been visually disabled for the past 10 years because of a disease process. Reading has always been a passion of mine, and for most of the past 5 years I have not been able to read standard print: books, newspapers, product boxes, lots of things, without the aide of a magnifier. I have an older model reader that is quite large, and not comfortable to use for extended periods. I have also not been able to use my sewing machine. A neighbor suggested that I look for a pair of magnifying goggles, so perhaps I would be able to use the machine again, so I looked at what was available on Amazon, because the prices are usually very good, and returning items is a snap. I ordered the Carson Magnifier because I could still wear my glasses, plus there were 4 different magnifying lenses in a separate case. For reasons I really can't quite explain, using this magnifier with the lowest power lens plus my regular glasses, allows me to read normal print again-everything I have looked at so far. The headgear is very comfortable to wear, plus the lens holder itself and the light are completely adjustable. The entire item appears to be well made, no flimsy plastic at all, and pieces fit together securely. I recommend this item for anyone who needs to have more magnification and light but requires a hands free application.
