Hello, I have found some very helpful low vision devices at https//hadleyhelps.org after learning about them at a Hearing and Vision Expo.
Hope this helps.

Where can you find magnifying glasses with a light for reading?

Magnifying glasses with built-in lights are helpful tools for reading with AMD. You can find these at several places:

* Medical supply stores
* Pharmacies and drugstores
* Online retailers (Amazon, specialized low-vision websites)
* Vision rehabilitation centers
* Optometry offices

Look for handheld or electronic magnifiers with lighting features. Some have ring lights or LED lights built in to help illuminate text while magnifying it.

You might also consider makeup mirrors with 10x magnification and ring lights, which some people with AMD find helpful for detailed tasks. Adjustable glasses with movable lenses can be portable alternatives when you can't carry a larger magnifier.

Your eye doctor or a low-vision specialist can recommend specific products that match your vision needs and may know local suppliers in your area.
