Headband-Mount Flip-Up Magnifiers

Designed to fit over prescription and safety glasses, these magnifiers help you read fine print and inspect parts.

A 2.5X magnifier serves as a bifocal. Also known as a loupe, it attaches to either side of your headband-mount magnifier.

Acrylic Plastic Lens—Magnifiers with an acrylic lens are lighter in weight than those with glass, and the lens won’t shatter if they’re dropped.

Glass Lens—A glass lens is clearer than acrylic and harder to scratch.

2 Lenses—Magnifiers with two lenses let you switch between two levels of magnification. The second lens flips down over the first to bring an object into sharper focus.

Illuminated Eyeglass-Mount Frame Loupe Magnifiers

A built-in LED on these wearable magnifiers shines a bright, even light so you don’t miss any scratches, dents, or nicks. They rest comfortably on your face so you can inspect objects up close without hunching over a handheld or bench-mount magnifier. First designed for jewelers, these magnifiers also work well for quality control and inspection. Swap out six included lens sets to switch between magnification levels ranging from 6X to 25X. The lenses are made of plastic, which are more lightweight and shatter resistant than glass lenses. The loupes flip up, so you don’t need to take them off completely between uses.
