Detail
Two 30mm diameter lenses, each is 4X magnification, use them individually or fold them on top of each other = 8X magnification.
Slightly domed casing, very nice to hold. If it looks familiar, this might be because it's a copy of an expensive Bausch & Lomb magnifier. Good as a general pocket magnifier (e.g. for reading tiny print on food packaging) - good for those who want the 'flexibility' of more than one magnification without the expense of a jeweller's loupe.
For a simple general purpose lens, the optical quality is quite acceptable, but do bear in mind that you don't get the very best optical quality for under £5.00.
