I bought this monocular for my husband who has low-vision. He took it on our vacation and loved it. He was able to focus in on nesting eagles, see things closer and thoroughly enjoyed the monocular's ability to help him see things he normally would not be able to see. It is compact enough to store in a shirt pocket and handy enough to have available when needed. I would highly recommend this product for people with low-vision problems, it was a great enhancement for his eyesight.

For its size, the optics are superb! perfect for reading labels at a distance. Working in a pharmacy, that can be a help if you want to read a lot number on a bottle without having to walk to the shelf. On top of that, it just looks cool. No wonder James Bond would choose Minox for covert ops!
