Several people mentioned the issue of getting the right magnification with an OptiVisor. I found mine in an Hobby store, so I was able to try them on.
You can vary the magnification without buying new lenses. Like most of us over 40-something, I have "presbyopia" (old eyes) that won't focus up close any longer so I wear reading glasses. They work very well under the OptiVisor. In fact, it's designed for them. I have a 4 diopter lens in my OptiVisor, and I add or remove my reading glasses as needed for more or less power. If you have bifocals or graduated lenses, you can get graduated magnifying power the same way! If you don't need glasses, reading glasses are available in drug stores, book stores, etc. that will do the trick. Get good ones that have decent lenses. Ignore the looks from the clerks as you try them on under the OptiVisor in the store!
