I have the largish ace didymium glasses from Martin, and i need to find a pair of magnifying clip on or flip up glasses that will fit them. i now need reading glasses for close work so already wear these under the lampwork specs So this will mean 3 different types of spec lens ::) The problem is i don't think the normal clip ons will fit the frame of my didys. I've already wasted money on stick ons which were too small.... any suggestions from others with the same problem - i can't be the only one with this problem! i don't want to buy prescription didys beacuse my eyesight seems to be changing every eyecheck! Please help! :)
These are what I use http://www.lensbase.com/product.php?xProd=394
I've had mine on my downtown didys for well over a year, they're great once you get used to them.
This is what I use for my jewellery making http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=219971 (http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=219971)
It is great - has 4 different lenses which can be doubled up to get just the magnification you need and when you don't need the lens they flip up out of the way. I have never tried it over my didys but I cant see why it wouldn't work, in fact I shall have to try it for those fiddly bits I struggle to see properly ;D
I've tried the stick ons and because the lens on my didys is so big (not like the downton) i can't seem to put the stick on in the right place! I already have the headband magnifier but it slips all the time and is now a bit scratched so i thought i'd try something that didn't mean me wearing 3 separate items. The clip ons look good but again are quite small. There must be something out there but just have to find it :(
