Ideal for aging eyes. I have this attached to my office desk and I think it's brilliant, well worth the €18 that I paid. My only little quibble is that the metal foot that goes on the underside of the desk (for spreading the load) broke off immediately, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as I put a bit of rubber there instead (from an old car mat) and now it grips much, much better. Very pleased and would recommend.
