Ok, it's really no big secret that most of us don't like to wear eyeglasses. Some of us don't particularly like the way they look or feel on the end of our noses. I am so slightly nearsighted, that I really don't want to pay $300.00 for a pair of glasses. I use a magnifier to see very small things up close. Magnifiers come in handy, they can be placed 4" over paperwork, and other images to bring those things closer so that you are not straining to see. There are several Brand name manufactures of magnifiers, such as Bausch & Lomb, Nikon, Carson, and Barska . If you are like me, you can buy a full size page 8 X 10 magnifying sheet and place it over a page in a magazine, on a calendar, over a picture to bring those images close for viewing ease. Try the Carson Magnisheet, item CN-LM-DM11. This is a very handy gadget. It comes with a frame and is a very reliable magnifier. The name "Carson" should say everything!
