    This is what Mike Palmer used last week while I was working with him. I ordered mine yesterday. It comes with three different strength lens and one should work for just about anybody.

    I need a good one of those. The one from BM was a piece of garbage. Can you tell us brand and where you ordered from?

    The one I got is a Bausch and Lomb. It is super comfy, comes with three different lenses. I use the 2.2x lens and wear reading glasses. Makes the cells look huge!
