Eschenbach 2x Magnifier Glasses Dark Grey

Got these for my Dad who suffers from Macular Degeneration. I didn't have sufficient reviews or info to be sure that these would work. However I had to try. He received them a few days ago and called me immediately very pleased. He said the adjusters were a little difficult for tender hands but that with a little patience he got them adjusted to suit him. We concluded that some difficult adjusting for him was well worth the fact that once adjusted these stayed adjusted. It is hard to relate just what an improvement in life these "Eschenbach MaxTV Glasses" have made in this mans life. He is elated as to how he can now enjoy TV so much more now. He can also see the TV in his bedroom and see things around the house much better if he wishes. NOTE: These have a limited field of view, that is side to side and up and down. Dad wanted me to make sure and advise against trying to stand or walk around with binocular glasses on. Although, knowing him, he may have tested that to some extent. Thank You Eschenbach for such a wonderful thing.

Works as advertised. Eye adjustments are OK. A 50" class TV fills you entire view without moving head side to to side. Cheaply made with poor quality plastic, the larger outside R lens detached after light use, almost lost it in the bed sheets. We'll see if that keeps happening. If so, I will return it and forget about this option. Does allow you to read all closed captions, and You Tube comments so I'll keep it for now.

I have macular degeneration and have been wearing these glasses for17 years. This was only my second pair - they are well made and allow me to watch tv almost perfectly

Glasses were of no help in letting my mother see the TV. There is very little adjusting on each lens-not at all like a pair of binoculars. They were very cheaply made. If they would have helped her to see TV, I could have overlooked the low quality. They were not worth the large amount of money they cost. I have returned the glasses and I am waiting for my money to be returned.

I worked and worked and worked to try and get it to focus on my TV but was never successful. At standard viewing distance you can only see part of the screen and even that is not comfortable viewing. What a waste of money! You would think a German product would have better engineering than this. I hardly return anything but I'm going to try and get my money back on this one. Rick Edit 9/1/13: The product did not work for me but I am PLEASED with the seller. The refund process was simple and I received my refund promptly. Rick

These MaxTV glasses do work to help you watch tv again. Best used in a darkened room, they reflect a lot of light. They do adjust behind the ears, but no adjustment at the bridge of the nose. Smaller faces will need to put in some nose pads. Very small faces will only see out of one eye, but better than nothing.

My Dad suffers from Macular degeneration and glaucoma and has only partial sight left in one eye. He has been unable to read or watch tv so I ordered these as a Christmas gift for him, hoping they would help. He was thrilled with how they worked and he found them easy to adjust.. They are good quality, very well made and came with a case for storage. I was pleased with the quick delivery as I ordered them a short time before Christmas and although delivery was promised by Jan. 3rd, the arrived well before Christmas Day.

I have AMD, and these glasses gave me SOME help watching TV, but the glasses are cheaply made and the stems break too easily. The stem of my SECOND just broke off and I’ve only had them two months. The break is not reparable. Disappointed….i expected more from a brand with the reputation of Eschenbach.
