I usually don’t recommend things too much but for $13 on Amazon you can’t go wrong with these magnifiers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075WR4M99

My old school vision just got clearer! I use them for soldering and repairing some of those tiny parts in my boombox. A hot fragment of solder recently flicked near my unprotected eyes and that was enough to convince me to quit “naked eyeballing” while soldering.

I’m getting old, I’ll admit it.

You still need a steady hand! I find if you have really good lighting you can see enough without having to train your hand to eye coordination to compensate for parallax error due to magnification.
