CGW Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 The small stalls that sell binoculars, telescopes, knives & possibly weapons of mass destruction sell them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattaya_girl Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Try the cheap stalls at the Soi Bouakow Tuesday & friday markets. I paid 62 Thousand Baht for Lasik eye surgery, I had to throw my reading glasses away, Docs orders, but for very small print i still need a magnify glass. The Doctor said if i start to wear the reading glasses again my eyes will go back same before, but he said the magnify glass is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattaya_girl Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Your welcome.. Just out of interest, i think they also sell these magnify glasses with a small light attached to it underneath, i saw some (not new ones) for sale at the Theprasit night market, the market with the 2nd hand stuff on the floor, i saw two for sale here. I fancy trying one with a light attached !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuban Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Go to one of the many open air 'night' markets, listen for the recorded sales pick via loudspeakers saying that everything is 10 Baht ("...sip baht...") you will find a cheap but functional magnifing glass in one of the plastic baskets there, guess how much they cost?

chickenslegs Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Don't know if you got fixed up, but the Tesco in Sattahip has a stall on the first floor (next to the KFC) selling samurai swords, survival knives, 1,000 candle power torches and MAGNIFYING GLASSES in 4 different sizes. I think there is a similar stall in the South Pattaya Tesco, but I don't know whether they carry magnifying glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syd barrett Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I also struggle reading small print, which is a nusiance because I am a voracious book-reader. I recommend very highly, that you invest in a powerful reading lamp, which I find helps enormously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
