Never Miss the Small Print with Clip-on Magnifying Lenses

INSIDER TIP: Clip and Flip Magnifying Glasses are an inexpensive and lightweight vision aid to complement an existing pair of prescription glasses.

As our loved ones age and their eyes age with them, whether they have visual impairment due to a medical condition or just experience the regular eyesight loss that is part of growing older, they're sure to find themselves squinting more often to see the things they interact with on a daily basis. Whether they're working, cooking at home, staying active by sewing or crafting, or reading anything from a prescription bottle to a menu, life would be a whole lot easier if things were just a little bit bigger.

Clip and Flip Magnifying Glasses are in inexpensive and unobtrusive way to give your loved ones a little extra magnification when they need it. The Clip and Flip Magnifying Glasses attach to the nosepiece of any regular pair of glasses, giving them more or less magnification at a moment's notice without the inconvenience of having to search for reading glasses or a magnifier; simply flip them down for times that require extra magnification, and back up and out of the way when it isn't needed.

Clear, distortion-free Clip and Flip Magnifying Glasses are inexpensively priced at under $15.00, including a protective pouch to carry them in a purse, bag or pocket when they're not in use.

Refresher: Clip and Flip Magnifying Glasses can turn regular glasses into reading glasses in a flick of the wrist.
