Why we know this works!

We love these lighted readers because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we constantly find people reading under one dim lamp and blaming their eyes when the real problem is the light. Does more light really help you read with low vision? Yes, when it lands on the page instead of in your eyes: aiming light directly at what you are reading improves clarity and cuts glare, and these readers build that task lighting right into the frame with an LED on each side. They come in +1.50D or +4.00D strengths, and the coin cell batteries last up to 50 hours. They are especially helpful for people with cataracts, glaucoma, or early to mid stage macular degeneration who read, craft, or write. They only work for near tasks, not TV or computer distance, and if you need stronger than +4.00D, a true magnifier like the Macrolux Brightfield Magnifier is the better choice.
