SeeZoom Lighted Magnifying Glass 3X 45x Magnifier Lens - Handheld Magnifying Glass with Light for Reading Small Prints, map, Coins and Jewelry - LED Seniors Magnifier for Close Work

After owning and using my new SeeZoom lighted 3x/45x magnifier for a month or so, I can say I'm very pleased with this unit. It's lightweight and well-balanced, even with the 3 AAA batteries installed; and the shape of the handle feels natural in my hand- which should help to prevent any accidental dropping. (One detail: The surface of the handle is smooth~ if it were slightly 'pebbly', IMO, it would be an even better unit, grip-wise..)The strength of the main lens itself works fine for me (sometimes in combo with my regular glasses- but that's my poor vision, and not the unit's shortcoming) and the light's more than adequately bright for normal everyday use. The small high-magnification lens inset into the main lens is VERY strong: especially helpful for Rx bottles and DVD labels, with their annoying micro-printing..Like anything else you buy new, there's a small learning curve involved as to how EXACTLY to hold and point the unit so you get the maximum benefit for your own personal needs, but it's user-friendly: you should have it in no time.In conclusion, I'm glad I didn't have to buy- and discard- a few useless units before I found this one. I won't be needing to shop for another~ other than in the unlikely event that I drop and break this one.. and, actually, it feels like the build is robust enough that it probably could take an accidental fall and still function. Overall, a nice piece of gear, and I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase.

This made a great gift for a relative to read the tiny print on medication bottles. He was THRILLED! The light is so handy and the glass is clear (not warped like some other magnifying glasses). Solid construction too.

Reading glasses/progressive lenses in my normal glasses give me headaches, so I bought this because I needed to be able to take a closer look at the kanji in some of the Japanese books I'm reading in order to look them up in the online dictionary. Works great - when you're looking at single characters/small groups of characters in Japanese and Korean, where my reading speed is still pretty slow. And the built-in light is a nice touch.When I tried to use it while reading small print in English in another book, I found the lens distortion at the edges drastically slowed down my native English reading speed (where I'm capable of "grabbing" and understanding larger chunks of text at one go). So I have to get a larger rectangular magnifying glass or Fresnel lens for that. Other than that limitation, it's a nice useful gadget.

This is a very nice and useful magnifying glass. I needed something to enlarge photos of paintings in large photo books I purchased recently to see detail. Kind of like when you zoom in on a photo on your Iphone or laptop.Previously I bought another magnifier that had 5x power, but it was too much enlargement and the unit distorted the picture. This one has 3x magnification which is just about right for zooming in on printed photos. I don't see any distortion at the edges or center of the glass. And the glass diameter is a perfect size.The incorporated LED lights give just the right amount of light or the unit can be used with LED's turned off.A good deal for less than $20.00RecommendedBobztEngineer

Love the product. Very helpful.

Bought for my mil as her eye sight isn’t great! She lives in a nursing home and doesn’t wanna bother her roommate at night when she can’t sleep to do crossword puzzles and she loves the light. It just gives enough brightness so she can see and the level of the magnifier is great as well I would highly recommend lightweight easy to use!

Thank you SeeZoom for your support and concern regarding your product. I IHAVE BEEN USING IT IN AN INDUSTRIAL SETTING AS WELL AS AT HOME FOR ALMOST A YEAR The magnifier is always with me at work for reading part numbers on small computer chips it is excellent in quality ALWAY been using it for over a year and it is of excellent quality an excellently I have just received the second free lighted magnifying glass. I purchased the first as an aid to my reading during a time when I was having eye surgery. It was very helpful. Unfortunately after my surgery I am blind in one eye and have limited close vision in my second eye. Your product helps me see well.I was hired by a computer chip semiconductor factory and at first, had difficulty reading part numbers on box labels. The company was supportive and allowed me to try several light sources to help me see the small numerals. After a few different attempts, I have found that your 3X lighted magnifying glass is the best option for me.The three LED lights illuminate the reading surface very effectively. The high quality of the 3x lens allows for a clear and consistent image with no distortion. In addition, the product is also very durable and strong. I have dropped it from waist height onto a concrete floor at least three times and to my surprise, the black handle and plastic surrounding the glass have not broken or cracked.I have recommended your product to at least 2 other workers since then. I have also purchased a duplicate of your product to keep at work in case I damage my first. When I purchased my first lighted magnifying glass, I was fortunate enough to find that I qualified for a second free magnifying glass. I ordered a third and found I qualified for a second free magnifying glass! I now have 2 at work and 2 at home and would not be without them.I need to commend you for your excellent quality product Without it I would not have been able to perform my current job. In addition, I need to thank my employer, Rochester Electronics of Newburyport, Massachusetts for affording me the opportunity to develop a method that allows me to perform my job duties.
