Carson JS-18 2x/6.5x Magnifying Glass
The Carson JS-18 is a compact magnifying glass for anyone who regularly works with small objects, fine print, or intricate details. The main acrylic lens delivers 2x magnification with a sharp, distortion-free image, so you can read, inspect materials, or check surfaces comfortably without straining your eyes. Acrylic is lightweight and optically clear - the magnifier feels light and easy to hold. At 85 mm x 50 mm, it fits neatly in a pocket or desk drawer.
Two magnification levels in one tool
When 2x is not enough, the built-in bifocal insert takes over. This small secondary lens provides 6.5x magnification, letting you examine very fine structures - such as text on postage stamps, electronic components, or printing patterns. Having two lenses in one body is a practical solution. You do not need to switch between different magnifiers depending on how much detail you need. Simply rotate the magnifier and use whichever optical section suits the task.
Built for everyday use
The Carson JS-18 is designed to handle daily use - at home, in a workshop, in the office, or on the go. This handheld magnifier with a bifocal insert suits collectors, model makers, craftspeople, and older users who need a reliable tool for reading and close-up work. The simple construction has no moving parts, so it keeps working reliably over a long period of use.
