ABSTRACT:
A single unit illuminated magnifying tweezers apparatus used to facilitate the gripping and handling of small objects comprising a housing, a magnifying lens, a light source and tweezers. The tweezers are pivotally mounted within the cavity of the housing such that the gripping ends of the tweezers can be pivoted into the focal range of the magnifying lens, which in turn lies within a light beam projected by the light source. The tweezers are retracted snugly within the housing for convenient transport and storage. The apparatus allows the user, with one hand, to easily manipulate the tweezers to grip a target object, which along with the ends of the tweezers, are both illuminated and magnified.
