## Description

Fully assembled, installs quickly and easily. One year limited warranty. Patented. Fits 24 inch widescreen LCD monitors.

Review: This screen magnifier didn't help me. The issue is that I'm frequently in online sessions in which someone shares their screen. The shared screen is too small for me to read. This screen magnifier didn't make a significant difference in the size, though. In addition, there's some distortion that I found distracting and potentially headache-inducing. The magnifier also doesn't secure to the monitor, so a bump can dislodge it. If you only need slight magnification, this screen might work for you. ETA: I didn't realize I bought and returned this item in the past. My comments this second time around are pretty much the same as the first time. ETA2: I didn't make it to UPS to return this item in time, so I got stuck with it. I've been trying to use it. The arms that the magnifier uses to hang onto the monitor are VERY loose and flimsy. A puff of air moves them, so I find myself constantly fighting to keep the monitor in the best position to help me. Today, I'm trying running a strip of tape between each pair of arms. This is not working well. I am down-grading my rating from 3 stars to 1 star. I'm contemplating whether setting the darn thing on plate stands at each end would keep it from moving so easily,. What a PITA and a waste of hard-earned money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm reading that the feet for the top don't hold well.  Is that true?**
A: Yes

**Q: Does this work with laptops?**
A: I think you might have to be creative. If you can get the right size for you lap top screen, the arms might work ok. The bottom arms would be the problem, but they don't actually hook, only the top arms do. I wonder if the tilt of the lap top screen might present a problem. I purchase them for employees in an office setting, that use regular monitor screens.

**Q: how do you measure computer screen for this product**
A: Same as any TV..right tip corner to bottom left corner..but I dont think this product is good..I returned it

**Q: Does this fit a standard monitor or widescreen monitor?**
A: I used the monitor magnifier when I was between cataract surgeries.  It fit my monitor (at that time I had a standard size one).  I now have a widescreen monitor and I just put it up against the larger monitor.  It is about 1-1/2 inches less in width.  You could still use it, but it worked perfectly on the standard size one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by L***N on 17 October 2018*

I want to try to clarify on some things I have read about this product in the reviews. The first thing is the magnifier just sits/hangs on your monitor on metal arms. It is not fastened permanently to the monitor. It is easy to take off and clean that way. If you bump your monitor or desk a lot then I can see where you would have trouble getting it to stay on. The next is it depends on how bad your eyes are as to how helpful this product would be. My Mom quit driving about a year ago and she loves it. She watches a lot of YouTube videos and this helps her see things better. I do not wear glasses and if I had to look through it it would make me crazy, but I do not need it. I think there is a window between good eyes and eyes too bad for anything to really help that this would be useful for a person with failing eyes. My Mom had been getting shots for about four or five years now and as I said earlier she quit driving a year ago if the timeline helps anyone. It is light, it does what it is supposed to do, and the arms are adjustable for height and to a lesser extent how far away from the monitor it hangs. It magnifies 2x and that is a lot more than I thought it would be. If it becomes less effective in time you might be able to make new arms to extend it further from the monitor and maybe magnify more but I have not had to try that. What you see might get soft or out of focus looking if you extend it too far. All in all this is a good product that is designed to work in a certain way and it does what is intended.
