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

These magnifying glasses were exactly what I needed. I love working on cross stitch and embroidery, but with 50-something very nearsighted eyes, my strong eyeglasses prescription (-10.0) makes things so small that the progressive lenses aren’t enough for doing needlework. I was wearing drugstore readers on top of my glasses, plus a lighted magnifier that hung awkwardly around my neck, and still found myself looking around them all to use my near vision. The Vision Aid magnifying glasses are perfect. I can wear them with my prescription glasses. I used both the ear pieces and the headband, both work fine. I opted for the headband since the earpieces pulled my hair a little when I took them off. The nose piece is adjustable and there are extra pads included. The angle of the light and lenses are adjustable. No neck strain, the magnification was right where I needed it. The light could be a little brighter, but it was fine for my needs. The lenses are clear, no distortion. I used the second of five strengths for cross stitch. They would be helpful for taking out splinters or hunting head lice as well. I’m thankful for the case to keep everything together and protect the lenses. After wearing them for over 3 hours, there was a little pressure on my temples, but they were comfortable for a long stretch. These are going to be fantastically useful.

These magnifiers are great! I use them for drawing and painting very small details… they’ve really helped me improve, especially features on the teeniest of faces… both people and creatures. There’s a nice selection of clear magnifications. Very useful for a variety of projects… not just art. I’ve had my set for over a year and am just now having to recharge the lights. The lights are small but bright enough to be helpful. I mostly use my art lamps but the extra lighting for tiny detail work is nice. Lenses are sturdy, no nicks or scratches. Frames are well made and also sturdy, no breakage and screws haven’t come loose. The case is useful for carrying with me… still looks new. It’s sturdy, keeps everything together so nothing gets lost and everything remains protected. I’m very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend this brand. The delivery was quick without any issues.

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.

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.

These are awesome. Batteries last a long time, they are lightweight. Yes I would recommend getting a pair

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.

I bought the Vision Aid Expert Edition Magnifying Glasses for cross-stitching since my vision isn't what it used to be, and these have been a game change. The LED light and magnification were important features for me, and I also needed something that wouldn't get in the way of my stitching - so the around-the neck style wasn't an option. These glasses work perfectly over the top of my regular glasses with no issues at all. I also love that they come with multiple power levels, so I can switch lenses depending on the detail I'm working on. for anyone who does small, detailed, or close-up work and needs a comfortable, hands-free solution, I would definitely recommend these magnifying glasses.

Best purchase I've ever bought! Im an old fart and seeing the numbers of my painting was impossible, until I got these! I can finally see what I'm doing. Well worth the price. And so easy to use. Very comfortable, and i can still watch the TV no problem. Very well made. The light has 2 settings but I find the lowest to be just fine. The charge has lasted me hours so far.

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.
