I've used these for a couple of years now - they are the ones that sit on a band on your head, and drop down in front of your eyes for close work. The two lenses are rectangular strips, about 10 cm by 3 cm. When you've used them for a while, it becomes second nature to prop them so you work without them, then just lower your head a little to peer through them for a problem bit. I bought mine in a little craft shop at Pambula, on the coast, while on a weekend holiday. Since then our local craft shop has got them in, and I think I saw them for sale in the mail-order specalists Needlecraft Mailbox in Gosford, NSW. Thanks, Beth (Schoenberg) - yours were the first pair I ever saw and thought "I must have them"!
