Did some searching on the forum prior to posting this topic, and came up empty... and perhaps that's because this is an obvious-as-hell topic that I'm just late to the table with...
In 2022 I purchased a Carson Pro Series MagniVisor Head-Worn LED Lighted Magnifier. I'm 57 and my eyes are not what they used to be, despite readers in several magnifications laying about the place.
But when it comes to working with reeeeely small stuff (inspecting tweeter wire-coils / observing just how much ferrofluid is filling the VC gap for instance) and needing to discern incredible detail, a headlamp-magnified visor is one of the handiest tools in the shop! They are available all over online stores: I picked one up off Amazon for about $75 ~ which got me a decent one ~ they come in all shapes and sizes; mine has a kit of four different magnifying lenses and a micor-petzl style headlamp. The strongest / thickest lens offers incredible detail!
