Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The glasses need no other equipment, but getting a sharp, comfortable view takes a bit of adjusting. Each eye is focused separately, and the fit depends on pupil distance. A family member can follow written or video directions and get it working in under an hour. A low vision specialist can help if the view still seems off or if you are unsure this is the right strength.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The MaxTV Glasses are wearable distance magnifiers that make faraway things look about 2.1 times bigger, such as a TV, a game, a stage, or a movie screen. Each eye focuses on its own, so you can fine-tune the view instead of settling for one shared setting. They focus from 10 feet out to infinity, so they are built for viewing at a distance, not for reading up close. They are light at 1.7 oz and come in a zippered, padded nylon case. The field of view is 20 degrees, so you see a narrower slice of the scene in exchange for the larger image.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Put the glasses on and look at your TV or the event you want to watch from at least 10 feet away.
  • With a guide
    1. Focus each eye on its own: cover one eye, adjust that side until the picture is sharpest, then repeat for the other eye.
    2. Check that the fit works for you. The glasses are made for a pupil distance of 60 to 68 mm, so measure yours first if you are unsure.
    3. Practice for a short time at your usual seat so scanning and tracking feel natural. Expect about 15 to 30 minutes to get a comfortable view.
