Default Head band magnifier info needed

Hi guys,
I use a Optivisor head band magnifier at my work most days and it has passed the test of time very well.

I have seen the megaview headband magnifier from CF design and i was wondering what you thought of it and if there is anything better on the market etc before i purchase one or the other.

Cheers

Munro

I use one of CF Design one and it is very good but some of my fishing club guys have bought a similar type of Ebay which actually has a light on it. The Ebay one is a lot cheaper link below.

I would suggest you try the brand before you make the purchase. I have one similar to the above. The lenses are cheap plastic and the optics are ****. I have switched to reading glasses from the drug store. Much better quality.
