<p>[QUOTE="Inspector43, post: 3878573, member: 89213"]I don't think there is an answer for all. I don't like progressive lenses. I can't differentiate between the levels and usually trip. I have a 5X pocket magnifier that I have carried for most of 70 years and it works great for me. I have a lighted magnifier on a arm but it is hard to work with and get in focus. I broke down and bought a small microscope with light and USB connection to the desktop. It is easy to set a magnification you want for different types of examination. And, it is great for photos. When you use the scope, if you like what you see there is no set up - just hit the photo button. And it is great for my 76 year old eyes.</p><p>Good luck and keep in touch about how you get along with this issue.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
