Beecher Mirage 4x

The Beecher Mirage 4X and 5.5X provide moderate magnification in a lightweight headborne binocular system. The expanded field of view and brightness of these optical systems make the Beecher excellent for television viewing by patients with loss from macular degeneration. The systems weigh about 3.5 ounces and are easily focused for distances from about six feet to infinity. Patients generally report better appearance of colors in TV viewing which we believe is due to the brightness of the system. Patients in the range of about 20/100 to 20/300 may benefit from the 4X system.
