For those of you who where unfortunate enough to buy a couple of magnifying glasses thinking you had bought one strong enough only to find out you didn't, I have good news. You can double them up with a bit of practice, steady hands and you may still be able to make out the color in trichs!
However me thinks the radio shack special will be alot easier.
Some info, for those less fortunate.

P.S. I wonder how many people have confused trich color with pistol or stigma color in the past? COURSE I'VE NEVER DONE THAT
