I went the large frame prescription magnifier route and regretted it. When I get some time/money I'm going to go for narrower frames so I can peer over the tops of them.

I've got a pair of these http://www.riogrande.com/Product/Esc.../115741?pos=30
I didn't like them at first but I used them today with a magnifier light and managed to see amazing detail when setting a diamond. My optivisor just didn't hack it.
No, I'm not at Desire. I'm only doing Crowthorn with Crafts in Focus this year.

Got to get them photographed Wallace and then if I'm happy, I'll show them. Trouble with photographing stuff is that if looks OK with the naked eye but the photos show every defect!
Wow Carole your clip on magnifier looks great, I have used the optivisor over my glasses but to be honest didn't like what it does to my hair. When we are back at work after the holiday I'll show our lab guy who has lots of different apparatus in a cupboard; which tells me he also struggles. Thanks
I should have posted this sooner - but you can get these (and the non clip versions too) in the UK, here
Santa got me these this year http://www.riogrande.com/Product/Cra.../115745?pos=56
I've yet to get them made up to my prescription but I'm looking forward to being able to sit in a more upright position and not be straining my neck all the time.
