Hands Free Magnifier
A hands free magnifier can allow you to read, sew or do your favorite hobby without having to hold the magnifier.
As your macular degeneration progresses you will need different magnifiers for different tasks.

A handheld magnifier is good for quickly looking at a photo, reading a label or a price tag, but it can quickly be problematic if you are trying to use your hands and use the magnifier at the same time. There are several hands free styles to choose from.
Sometimes you will just need to try different styles to find out what you like best. Inquire about the return policy before you buy so that you can return the magnifier if it doesn't meet your needs. A hands free magnifier can come in many styles. First identify what task you will use the magnifier for, what magnifying power you need and then try the one you think will work best.
There are many different styles to consider. With this type you just wear them like glasses and your hands are free to work on your hobbies that require detailed vision. Click here to see a selection of headband magnifiers: Headband Magnifier
