Large Lens Head Magnifier Headband Magnifying Glass with Light Hands free 8 LED Magnifier with White and Yellow Light for Close Work, Crafts, Hobby, Reading, Repairing, Sewing, Jewelry

This is my third lighted magnifier so far, and it the manufacturers seem to have thought of just about everything. I don't go extremely easy on these devices, and previous products I've bought from Amazon both had some sort of annoying issues, such as: 1. Clips holding lenses in did not hold 2. Glasses-type magnifier was too heavy and the provided headstrap would not stay on the ear pieces 3. Bad wiring on glasses-type magnifier This one has several features which prevent the above problems: It goes completely around the head like some other models, and has a sturdy push/pull knob at the back to lock your size. Pull the knob and turn to adjust. The headband is cushioned. This might get dirty, eventually though, and the cushions are not removable. You can probably detach the band from the rest of the unit though and let the whole assembly soak in some soapy water, rinse, squeeze out the water and allow to dry. The front of the unit has two clip-in slots for the provided lenses, and it comes with five different lenses of varying magnifications. With two installed, you can flip up the front lens and only view through the rear, or you can flip the front lens down and look through both, giving you a combined magnification which is stronger than the others on their own. There isn't a way to only view through the forward lens only. You can also adjust the two lenses forward and backward (toward and away from your face), in case you need to. Viewing through the lenses is better with this device than some others where the lenses are separated by a divider, or are circular and fit close to the eyes. Usually with those other designs you can't view what you are working on through both eyes simultaneously without some sort of weird image displacement going on. This could just be my eyes though, as I was diagnosed with a wandering eye that causes double-vision at a young age. The light section is actually a module you can remove from the rest of the device, and the battery compartment is at the bottom of the assembly. You get two light tones, one white and the other orange-ish, and you can mix the two as well. There are also two brightness settings. Overall, the unit is sturdy, and no pieces become dislodged or move when setting the unit down in what I would call a normal way, unlike other options. The headband mounts connecting to the front portion of the unit have the expected adjustment knobs for adjusting the angle of the lighting unit up and down and tightening it in place. There are also hinges on each side of the band to make it more flexible. So far the battery life has been good.

Modest build quality - sort of flimsy feel - but really good, practical tools I have used for treating small wounds on others and for fine work. Worth the money, and works well with rechargeable batteries.

I gave only four stars because there is no case included and because it uses batteries for the light rather than being rechargeable. I am going to try two more like this (see video for the one I decided to keep, and why it was not this AmsOpto one) but this is very comfortable and works excellently. It is far better than the ones that have the nose clips on them. I wear glasses and the nose clip types really get in the way and put a lot of weight on my nose. This has excellent padding on the forehead and the back of the head so that it is easily movable while wearing it and there is just a little getting used to having something around your head. But it’s very easy to adjust to it. I would have given it five stars if it had a case and if it was a rechargeable light source. I also posted a video here. By the way, the lenses on this are much wider than other ones that I have tried so far. It makes it much easier to see as I am not having to adjust to looking past the edges of smaller lenses. Also, it’s easier to grab the lens and adjust it out of the way without having to put my fingers on it in such a way that would make smudges. See video. My only problem with these is that they make seeing my screens, like my phone and my tablet, so easy to see without eye strain that I kind of overdo it.

I love these glasses. They fit right over my regular glasses and they help me see great unlike some of those reading glasses on Amazon they don’t hurt my nose. They’re easy to get on and they just defend my head. awesome reading glasses go and buy it today.

the headlight is a bit flimsy, though I appreciated the additional light when I didn't have my flashlight in reach, and it's great that it's removable (not sure if it said so in the description, worth mentioning!). The two slots for different magnification is great, and they work without taking my +2.00 glasses off, even better! The magnification glasses have to be absolutely centered on your eyes to avoid distortion, the focus field is naturally very small with these powerful but small magnifying glasses, but once you get the hang of it they are amazing!

Well executed design with several magnification lenses to choose from in a handy carrying case. I was able to comfortably wear the headset for a long time, my only disappointment: the light is not powerful enough

The 5 magnifying glasses are perfect., the thinnest one 3:5 x is for distance ,(anything far away ) , and the thickest one 1.0 is for anything that needs to be very close , …is perfect !! The lights take 3 triple AAA batteries!! And has 3 settings for each one., downfall … The head set is weird … when you find the right fit , you have to push it in, to lock it, and pull out , to re-adjust it. I highly recommend this product !!

Over time the batteries do not last. I changed them out last week and already the light doesn't last for 10 minutes of turning it on. The batteries don't fit very well in the battery compartment, and it seems really structurally poor.
