And it is a good idea to get two. One large one and one with a smaller lens built in. I actually have a third one that is a jewelers loupe for coins and stamps.
The government requires so many warnings, side effects, ingredients, etc. it is hard to get all of the information on medicine bottles, food, and whatever requires a label, as a result, the magnifying glass is needed. Add to that the pharmacy printed labels’ ink is pale making it even worse.
Yep. And if you are somebody who needed to take your glasses off to see close-up better, even with bifocals, you suddenly find that doesn’t work any more & a magnifying glass is needed!
and they keep making the fine print tinier especially with instructions . So much for truly caring about your health . Everybody is worried about chip being placed in them , I’m wondering when you’ll need QR reading attachment to your glasses which of course will display magnified translations.

Yes, they do. I gave in and bought a magnifying glass a few months ago.

I like the fact that I can enlarge the type by zooming in on my tablet or phone.

When reading, sometimes I take off my glasses and hold the book close to my face. I’d rather do that than put up with the bifocals.

I keep a Dollar store magnifying glass by the computer for all the comics with extra small type.
