Vision Aid Expert Edition Magnifying Glasses with USB Rechargeable LED Light and Storage Case Hands Free Head Magnifier for Hobby Painting Close Work

Love these! They fit perfectly and comfortable. Really helpful with doing my paint by number pictures. I used them as well for hanging a new zebra blind to see close up with the light on. Very durable and love that you can recharge the battery. The battery last long enough for me to paint for quite awhile. I love that it has a variety of magnifying plastic lens that are think and sturdy. The like that there is two brightnesses for the light. I recommend these for the value for your money.

Bought these because I am a china painter. I paint China dolls. Very small detail. The 5 different lenses. Are easy to change out. The frames fit well nice safe case to store the lenses for travel. Very happy with the purchase. I bought two sets.

Very well built. Really helps my old eyes with reading and hobbies. Threading a needle is a breeze. So comfortable I can wear them for hours. Being able to flip up the lenses means I don't have to take them off and on. I removed the arms and the nose piece because I wear glasses and just use the headband. Having 5 magnifications is a big bonus. The case keeps everything organized and safe. Just a note: to remove the arms push the button down closest to the arm so it can slide out.

I am a 67 year old glasses wearer and I am frequently working with small electronic devices (e.g. printed circuit boards, small surface mount components, and soldering irons). As I have aged, working with small parts and assemblies has become more difficult. To that end, I have resorted to frequently removing my glasses and getting my face close to the work in order to see the detail I need. I recently decided to see if there was a solution that would fit my needs. I quickly found very high priced and high quality magnifiers from the likes of Craft Optics, but just could not justify the cost (~$500-~$800). I did some quick searching and came upon these Vision Aid devices. They offer a great deal of functionality and provide for changeable magnifications via snap on lenses. They also provide for a light source and have a good deal of adjustability. The price was very reasonable and I decided to give them a try. They are quite well made given the cost and while the optics are not top of the line ala' Craft, they are better than I expected. After removing the nose piece, they are quite comfortable. In use , the working distance varies with the magnification (higher power requires closer working distance). For my use, I settled on the 2.5X lens, but its great to be able to snap in a different power as needed. My one gripe is that the snap on clip for the lenses is not very firm or secure. It easy to knock it out of place. I may try making some mods to fix that. The LED lamp worked better that I expected and it too is quite adjustable. Also of note is that the company sells replacement parts (e.g. lenses) on their web site. This is great as I'm sure down the road, I'll want to replace the lenses as they get scratched with use. During my initial using, I was finding that I had some double vision issues. I contacted the company via their web site and received a prompt response with instructions to try moving the lens closer to my glasses. They also offered to allow me to return for a refund if I could not make them work for me. That's great support! The suggestion to move the lens closer worked well for me and I am keeping them. All in all, a great product.

Just received these and put them right to work. They came charged out of the box. They were very comfortable on me and very easy to adjust to get my field of vision just right. I use them for counted cross stitch and could sit on the couch and stitch. It made everything extremely easy. I was able to thread my needle perfectly every time. I didn’t think I needed the lights but they are amazing. This is a great product that I will get tons of use from.

January 2025 update: I've been using these on and off for about a year and a half. A couple of things have come to my attention that are worth passing along. One the lenses very easily pop out of the little clamp on the glasses themselves. Lucky I haven't broken one or lost one. But the fit could be more snug. Just today I noticed a pain while wearing the glasses. Turns out the little rubber cushion on the nose piece tour. These are very soft and do not hold up for very long. This would not be a problem if Replacements could be purchased. I haven't seen them. Caveat emptor. Great aid in my model ship building process. But it turns out that I really only use the lowest magnification lens in this set. The flashlight is underpowered and sort of pointless, but I imagine that some might find it useful. I wear this pretty much all the time I'm in my hobby shop working on my model, so it is comfortable. Perhaps when I get to the fine points of the project, rigging the ship, I'll benefit from more magnification, but for now, I find I've got to keep the work too close to my face with these lenses. I'm glad I got the Vision Aid glasses and hope I'll use more than just the one lens eventually.

This an excellent head mounted magnifier system. I am blown away with quality of design, build and ease of use. I purchased the upgraded model with the USB battery. The battery charges very quickly and the LED light which has two settings which work very well. I read some reviews that mentioned the weight of the unit and a dislike of the nose support. I was a bit concerned when I read them but decided to try the product anyway. I can honestly say from my perspective the unit is light and the nose support is not an issue. I can locate the nose support behind my glasses without any difficulty. I am still experimenting with using them. I may slide my glasses down my nose to get the top part of my varifocals to work better but I don’t think I will have to do this. Either way is not an issue to me. The light and lens holder have a high range of application. For my vision I am pointing the light down more or less as far as it goes and then I line up the lenses but they also work well in other positions. I am sure that you will find a setup which suits you. The lenses are of a high quality and very clear. There is a very good selection of lenses, enough for various applications and they are easy to fit into the headset. They are stored in a good box so no excuses for scratching lenses. My only negative comment is that the very handy carrying case does not have profiling to support the unit however, his a minor point for me. I will use the plastic insert that it came with but to be honest it is a bit flimsy. There is an elastic headband which unfortunately is to small for my head even fully expanded. To be clear I am very happy with the normal legs as fitted. If you do want to use the headband and have a large head it would not be too difficult to make one. I should say that I know I have a large head size which can be a problem for me when selecting a hats. So you might not be affected. I bought them to read small print in books and they work very well. The print seems to be getting smaller these days or I am getting older 😳 I would have no problem recommending them.

J'ai longtemps cherché une loupe pro et je dois dire que je suis comblé avec ce modèle. Très confortable à porter, les loupes sont très efficaces, on peut travailler en regardant sont ouvrage et aussi lever la tete pour regarder ailleurs en soulevant la loupe. Il y a une LED est est très efficace. la batterie tien correctement. La saccoche est top pour tout ranger. Ce kit est très utile pour tous les travaux de précisions. Je recommande fortement.

Estou satisfeita com a minha compra e recomendo o produto. Para estudantes universitários de Conservação e Restauração de Bens Culturais, as lupas são excelentes. A lupa chegou um dia antes da data prevista. Já a testei e constatei que preciso usar meus óculos com as três primeiras lentes, mas nas duas últimas (a quarta e a quinta lentes), não há necessidade de óculos. A troca dos braços pela faixa elástica é fácil, pois os componentes são de encaixe. No processo de entrega, a empresa demonstrou grande responsabilidade. Agradeço a todos que contribuíram para que o item chegasse até mim em perfeito estado.
