What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The COIL Raylite 36 Xenon is an illuminated stand magnifier providing 10.1x magnification (36.4 diopters) through a 36mm aspheric lens with a bright Xenon bulb — a combination suited for reading small print, labels, or detailed close-up tasks. It's designed for people with low vision who need consistent, hands-free magnification for regular reading tasks, as the stand holds the lens at a fixed focal distance above the page. This is not a complete, ready-to-use product: it requires the COIL transformer model 5226-16, sold separately, to power the Xenon light — you'll need to purchase and factor that into your total cost. The 36mm lens diameter is on the smaller side, so it covers a limited area of text at a time, which can slow reading compared to larger-lens alternatives.
