Anything that makes it easier for me to keep my fish happy is a good investment.
Thankfully I dont have bad eyesight, so reading a refractometer isnt an issue I personally have to deal with.
But for those that wear glasses this might be a seller.

I'll stick with my vertex refractometer for the following reasons:
-It's a simple design
-No batteries required
-No need to calibrate every time
-Tough

If this unit was priced identically to a standard refractometer I'd still buy the refractometer.

I wear glasses but to read a refractometer I just take them off. The image is only 1/2" away from your eye and most have focus adjustment anyway.
