Why we know this works!

We love this desktop magnifier because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we notice that reading for pleasure is often the first activity people quietly give up. Can you still read for hours with serious vision loss? Yes, if the setup lets you sit upright instead of hunching over a small lens: the Vario puts the page on a 15.6 inch HD screen at anywhere from 1.3x to 45x, and its 14 high contrast color modes help eyes that struggle with glare or color recognition. The workspace under the camera also handles writing, sewing, doing makeup, and trimming fingernails. It fits people with advanced macular degeneration, glaucoma, or diabetic retinopathy who do most of their reading at a desk or table. At almost 14 pounds it is meant to stay on that table, so if you need magnification that travels in a bag, pick the portable Visolux Digital XL FHD instead.
