What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 8, 2026
A 10x magnification monocular telescope designed for people with low vision who need to see distant objects — street signs, classroom boards, theater stages, sports events — without carrying binoculars. The 10x20 format means 10x magnification with a 20mm objective lens, and the close-focus capability down to 16 inches makes it more versatile than typical monoculars, which usually can't focus on near targets. At 4.5 inches and 4 ounces, it fits in a pocket and comes with a neck strap and case ready to use. Walters is a long-established low vision optics brand, so the optical quality is generally well-regarded in the field — but 10x is high magnification, and a shaky hand will amplify movement considerably, so some users find a stabilizing surface helpful.

- Rotate the focus wheel to bring your target into sharp clarity — works right away.
- With professional help
- A low vision optometrist or orientation and mobility (O&M) specialist can confirm whether 10x is the right magnification level for your specific acuity and intended use.
- Expect one low vision evaluation session to assess fit alongside other optical aids.
