EschenbachMaxDetail Magnifier

Just what was needed.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Allows user to adjust focus on each eye individually which is great (and necessary if oneself have a different condition on either side. The reason for 4 stars is duration of the legs. I have 4 sets (one on each of 3 work stations/facilities and one at home). I've had to repair/glue 3 of them so far. NOTE: over 5 years using them so ROI is great.

I bought Aschenbach max detail glasses because I don’t want a pair before and they had worked great. As a person who is legally blind due to premature retinopathy these classes are the only saving grace to be able to read regular print and small print without the aid of my iPhone zoom feature. Sadly they arrived at my house with the packaging smashed, the box carrying the glasses smashed, and the glasses are broken in half with the nose rim broken in half. I write this review not to dissuade you from buying these wonderful glasses, but to spread awareness to a possible endemic incompetency Buy one of the distributors from Germany to the US. I hope that you and you get your pair of glasses they will not ride in such a god-awful state of disrepair and neglect. Fortunately Amazon I was always was swift to refund me my money into my account after I returned the broken product. Fortunately we can find out if this was simply a one time incident or a lapse in shipping from one continent to the other.

superior service by seller and product. I returned product due to my macular degeneration causing the glasses to not help me. I am 93 years young and still going.

They are ok if you Low vision, but the do fall off the face alot

This is a great product as I have had eye problems(focus) for years and when I put it on the original it enlarged everything and made it easier for me to read. When the original that I had broke I ordered this one. Unfortunately, it is not exactly the same, focusing, and not as good as the first one. I put it on again tonight while watching TV and the majority of the pictures were better, but not all. So maybe it is a matter of me, my eyes, getting use to the new unit and as I have lived for over 50 years with this vision problem, I do know that it cannot be corrected, and this item is better than nothing.

Very good in reading for low vision patients

I do electronics work and I was willing to spend a little more money to buy something that would be comfortable, workshop sturdy, precise and allow me to look into detail at the boards, components and solder joints I need to inspect.Unfortunately, despite the price and the said reputable brand this glassess do not provide that.One of the lenses came out on my hand while trying to adjust it.They are flimsy, plasticky and at all times you think you will just break it.It has very small depth of field and way too constricted peripheral vision.On the good side, they are very light.It says made in germany but they are shipped from Japan, really? why?Just not the kind of product you would expect from german engineering.
