It does NOT include a light or close-up lens (loupe),
That said, the magnifier is very well made, fits well and stays put. Magnification is fine for everything I've used it for and the selection of lenses is great to have. Good value for the money and recommended.
Wearing progressive lenses makes this product difficult to use. To achieve the advertised working distances with progressive lenses, you must be looking through the very top (long distance/infinity focus) part of the progressive lens. If you look through the lower portions of the progressive lenses, the working distance of the focus gets progressively closer. So, a working distance of 20” shrinks to 4”-5” if you look through the lower portions of your progressive lens eyeglasses.
Since most objects you work on would be on a counter or bench, in front of you, below your line of sight, you’ll need to dramatically tuck your chin down (and tilt your head downward) to use the visor while looking only through the uppermost part of the progressive lenses, otherwise you can't work at the 20” focus distance. I found working in this position very uncomfortable.
The same issue presents itself with each of the four lens set magnifications. The working distances advertised are accurate only if you use the very top of your progressive lens. At 3.5X magnification, without glasses or through the lower portions of my progressive lenses, the working distance of the focus is reduced to 1.5”- 2” from the outer surface of the visor lenses.
You can pull your glasses down to the end of your nose, so as to lower the lenses, making it possible to more easily look through the upper portion while looking down. The space between your glasses and the inside of the visor is sufficient to allow this. It's a little awkward, but it works okay as a temporary work-around.
You can't use the visor without your glasses without also decreasing the working distances. In my case, if I use the visor at 1.5X magnification without my glasses, the working distance (measured from the outer surface of the visor lens to the viewed object) reduces from 20” to about 5”.
If you don't need to wear eyeglasses or you have single focus eyeglasses, all of the above is of lesser importance.
The means of attaching the lenses to the visor (“plastic nails”) is pretty crude. Mine kept popping out. The holes for the nails in the visor I received were not properly aligned with the holes in the magnifier lenses. The lens attachment system needs to be improved. Providing a little packet of extra nails doesn't solve the problem of misalignment and the nails popping out. The owner instructions for use could also stand some improvement and proof-reading.
I didn't find this product useful for my purposes because I wear progressive lenses and I consistently need longer working distances, like 12”-20”, which could not be easily achieved in my situation. The visor might have been workable if I didn't wear progressives.

The lens are nit glued properly and will fall feom its frame if nit properly handled.
It can do its job but the overall workmanship of the product is poor .
