AKA Sam, hey thanks for sharing I pretty much have the same problem I cannot read small print at all Standard newspaper print or even a fine print without high magnification I also have a very restricted feel the vision I am actually at a level to be considered legally blind. what makes it real difficult for me to read is my United stagnus and the more I try to focus on something after a while everything just gets blurry and shaky the high magnification helps with this my reading is also not so fluent because of the level of magnification that I require what happens is with lower magnification I'll either skip lines or read the same line over and over.
