5X Full Page Magnifying Glass for Reading, Lightweight Rectangular Magnifier Provides Large Book Page Viewing Area, Upgraded Handheld Magnifier for Reading Small Prints for Seniors, Low Vision

This is a very good product. I purchased it for my brother who is developing a cataract. He is so happy to be able to read again. It is sturdy and fits neatly into his books.

Like all of us I spend too much time online, primarily using a tablet. The older I get the more difficult it is for me to see without squinting. Granted I could just put on my glasses but when I’m relaxing in bed I’d rather not have them on. This magnifier works well for my purposes, and I love that’s it’s lightweight but not fragile. I’ve dropped it several times and so far no issues. I’m very happy with this purchase.

First, this handy vision tool was less than 8 bucks—and these days there's pretty much nothing under 10 dollars that is useful or of any real value. Second, it is a very good magnifier. It provides a very clear (but relatively small) field of magnified vision; and is superior (with 5X magnification-wise and clarity-wise) compared to the other plastic flexible magnifying sheets (3X power) out there. However, the total field of view is smaller; at 5 inches by 7 inches...and you've got to be prepared for only that much operating room. But here's the rub: it's not good for reading books or any other type of extended-period text reading. Why? It is basically a square handheld magnifying glass, with a definite "sweet spot" of undistorted view area in the very center of the screen—BUT unfortunately (just like a handheld magnifying glass) there is curvy-wavy distortion all around the periphery that surrounds the sweet spot...which becomes visually dizzying when you try to actually read a book with this magnifier. This makes it a deal-breaker if you're looking for something that will magnify the whole page you are reading without any wavy distortion. In other words, this is probably not good to read more than 1 or 2 pages of text. Also, there are always one or two distracting ambient "reflected" random images (of any nearby light sources) that reflect in the lens that can annoyingly obscure your field of view. That said, this magnifier is however great for zooming in on specific areas of small print for shorter periods of time. It has the 5X power and clarity and relatively large area of view to do a bang-up job reading a page of fine-print instructions, in depth labeling, or lengthy medicine directions or pill-bottles! This type of use is definitely in its wheelhouse of strength. The lens itself is well made, convex clear hard plastic, and sits immovable (unbending) in the frame. When you lay the frame down flat on another flat surface, the lens is recessed a few millimeters within the frame itself to protect the lens surface somewhat from scratching—however, I can see right away that you better be careful how you handle and store this magnifier because you definitely do not want to permanently mar or scratch your viewing area (and remember it's only made of plastic after all). In the end, for the price, you are getting a big bang for your buck here...assuming you just want a handy dandy, clear-focus, square-shaped, lightweight handheld magnifier for excellent magnified "short-term use"—and not looking for something for any type of extended book reading purposes.

It does increase small to large

This is AWESOME! I have two small round magnifying glasses 🔍 that I use every day. This inexpensive, full page magnifying glass, beats those other two all to heck! You do want to be sure you are reading through the correct side. The corner will say VISION AREA. The correct side will be smooth whereas the other side will have small ridges on it. And you can beat the price compared to other magnifying glasses.

they are not of the quality I expected; however they'll suffice.

This item came as advertised. Works very well for reading book pages. Lightweight, and not tiresome. Low priced. Good purchase.

It is very light, easy to hold, either vertically or horizontally. Great for paperbacks with small fonts.

It's misleading, the reading area is actually very small, unlike shown in the representing picture.
