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

Setup with instructions The lamp is a complete solution, but a good result depends on picking a table that holds the clamp, placing the lens at the right distance, and setting the light level. A family member can do this from the instructions in about half an hour, so it needs some guided setup but not a professional. If you aren't sure 2.25X is the right strength for your vision, an eye care or low vision professional can help you choose.

What it is

Summary

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

This lamp clamps to the edge of a table or desk and holds a round 5-inch lens with a dimmable LED light built in. The lens magnifies 2.25X (5 diopter) and works best about 8 inches from what you're looking at, so the light and the magnified view are always on your work. A spring-balanced arm, about 45 inches long, lets you swing the lens into nearly any position and have it stay put. It suits reading, crafts, hobbies, and other close tasks. Because it is a fixed-power lens on an arm, it fits a work surface you sit at, and it can't be carried around like a handheld magnifier.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Clamp the base to the edge of a sturdy table or desk and plug the lamp in.
  • With a guide
    1. Swing the arm until the lens sits about 8 inches from your work, then adjust the angle so you can see through it comfortably.
    2. Use the dimmer to set a light level that is bright enough without glare. Plan on about 15-30 minutes to find a good mounting spot and position.
