Instructions
1. The first above all, you need to decide which kind of magnifier do you want, a single ocular or a binocular eye glass magnifier? There are three dimensional items you need to see, such as cut gems, might benefit from a binocular view, while a single ocular is less obtrusive to your view and is better for multi-tasking.
2. You need to consider your application and remember to choose a magnification that works best for your application. You'll easily find powers between 1.5 times and 2.5 times magnification for binocular magnifiers, and single ocular loupes with magnifications ranging from 4 times to 7 times.
3. Check consumer ratings on eye glass magnifiers on Internet. You’ll also get a general idea of prices and the different types of magnifiers available.
4. Select a style of magnifier that suits your needs. If you want one that is easily removable, you might want to choose a clip-on style. And if you work on detailed projects all day long, you should select a singular ocular that directly mounts to your eyeglass frames.
5. Try it out. Before you buy something as personal as an eye glass magnifier, go to a store and try a few styles out to see which one is the best fit.
