3.0 out of 5 stars Great lens, cheap housing. Compares to others with quality lens but..., November 24, 2008

This review is from: Bausch & Lomb Folding Pocket Magnifier, 5-20x (Health and Beauty)
The $20-$25 range, Bausch & Lomb 3 lens magnifier/loupe with a 21mm diameter viewing area works with clarity and performance of nice lenses. The cheap housing however is a major deterrent from this product and justifies the lower price compared to two other loupes which I mention at the end.

Pros:
Provided is 5x, 7x and 9x magnification by 3 individual lens. The lens work great individually and at 21mm diameter, it is nice to have a viewing area of that size. The lens also work very well in combination to increase the magnification 5x all the way to 20x.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bausch&Lomb 5x-20x, April 10, 2008

The 3 different lenses are nice, but was rather disappointed to find the housing is cheap plastic (for $24!) instead of metal; and there's no loop on the end to attach to a key-ring as I wanted, to keep with me in case I'm without my reading glasses. ....decided to forego the hassle of returning it. But, to keep at home on a desk or bookcase, it's handy there as well! -GM

lens abberation is minimal when three lenses are used all together, but it lacks magnification marking on each lense as well as a small loop for attachment with a key holder rather than keeping it in the pocket! The casing should have been metal NOT plastic otherwise price has to be reduced to compensate these cons.
