A Handy Sight Enhancing Fitting Tool
A very handy tool for adjustments and fitting. I have two of them. I have one for general work and another one for close in work/fitting. I got tired of switching lenses. I finally bought a second pair. I have them on pegs on my pegboard. The one for close in fitting has an Opti-Loop on it. I just reach up and grab the one I need. Mine are old and they have needed some TLC for the sweat band. I have not had a problem with the adjustment fasteners or the lenses. Besides, my Chapman Driver Bits, it is the tool I grab the most.

For those misunderstanding
For those misunderstanding like I was, the objectification factor is different. Think of it this way. The no 7 optivisor lens will assist you in seeing 2 3/4" clearly at 6" from your viewing lens. SO, it will enlarge a focal distance of 2 3/4" at a distance away from your eyes of 6". I made the mistake of not creating the proper correlation of the focal plane to the distance away my workpiece is. My genre of work is normally 12" away from my face, and at the minimum of 6-8". For my purposes I should have gone with a No. 3 or a No. 5 instead of a No. 7. Do not go with the minimum distance at which you wish to see, instead choose a good in between distance as well. Trying to find a tool while still looking through this equipment is quite funny for those around you. By choosing a lower power and good in between, you have more flexibility. The Opti Loupe device, not sold attached, is to increase your magnification by a rough power factor. So a No. 3 visor with an Opti Loupe attached becomes the No. 7 or 10 roughly. Everyone's eyes work differently. Hope this can be of some assistance to those purchasing this product.
