Magnifying glass combiPLUS 100x50, 2,6x, 6,3D, with pouch

The magnification specifies how much larger an object appears compared to when viewed with the naked eye. A magnifying glass’ magnification is effective at a reference width of approximately 250mm.

There are different types of magnifying glasses, depending on the intended use.

A standard magnifying glass is the most common type. Reading magnifiers are, of course, suitable for reading, and for many other purposes.

Some magnifying glasses have an integrated light source, which makes identification even easier in low light.
