What Is the Reading Magnifier Used For?
A reading magnifier makes small type, maps, dictionary entries, labels on reagent bottles and the fine graduations of measuring instruments easier to see. The handle lets the user hold the lens steady at the distance that gives the clearest, largest image, while the other hand keeps the page or object in place.
In the classroom it doubles as a simple demonstration of a convex lens: moving it slowly away from the page shows the image growing, then turning blurred and finally inverted once the page lies beyond the focal length. Keep the chrome frame dry, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, and return the magnifier to its cardboard box to protect it in storage. It suits school physics lab equipment sets in India as well as library and staff-room use.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Lens diameter — the listing shows “7.5/20 cm”, so state the size you require.
