my husband just told me i should share this discovery......
i don't know what it's called but you look into someone's ear with it, it's lighted and magnified, it's the only thing i have found to work for me.
i don't know why needles are soooo hard to read! i can thread one with no problem but i sure can't read them!
anyway i paid about $13.00 for this thing at the drugstore because we are having ear trouble in this house, now i have another use for it.
