Magnifiers

[PENZZZ]

I'm looking for suggestions for magnifiers to aid me in tying tie on my flies. My old glasses were good enough up until this year, but I'm struggling in ow light. Is there anything beyond the kind that flip down from your hat brim? Thanks

Like you it’s only at dusk that my progressive lenses aren’t adequate. Tried hat mounted magnifiers but found getting the focal length right was difficult. Eyeglass mount magnifiers were too heavy until I reshaped them on my 1x30” belt sander. Helps if you cut away large sections first. You’ll find you only need a very small lens size, even smaller than these.

I’ve been using those with metal hardware, but those with plastic hardware are lighter though less durable.
