Reading small-print ingredient labels: useful equipment

[rotuts]

Im near sighted, and have been told, based on my focal point , Id never need reading glasses.

 

I occasionally need glasses for driving, but oddly , my distant vision is improving.

 

now ;  as ingredient lists become smaller and smaller its become difficult to see the amount of sodium etc in prepared foods.

 

why not just take some reading glasses a long ?  bulky.

 

my father had a small flat magnifying glass one would slip into one's pocket with no fuss.  in a leather 'case'  can't find it of course

 

looked around here and there in various stores :  nothing.

 

amazon of course came to the rescue :

 

Z ZTDM 8X Mini Pocket Folding Magnifier Glass Lens Black

 

 

 

works quite well.   Plastic case these days.
