  • Publication number: 20150002948
    Abstract: A magnification lens holder is provided for use with a golf cart steering column or for general use while shopping in a grocery store. The preferred embodiment comprises a magnifying viewer lens disposed within a housing that allows the lens to be removed and interchanged. A support assembly is provided having one or more ball joints and a clamp assembly for securing the same to the steering column of a golf cart. The viewer lens is positionable over or through the steering wheel of the cart to magnify a score card, whereby the viewer lens rotates with the steering column while driving. An alternate configuration is contemplated for supporting the viewer lens from a shopping cart or basket, providing the user with a magnifying lens while shopping and inspecting grocery items. The viewer lens housing is removable from the support assembly in both embodiments.
