Summary: Inspecting small details.

A magnifying glass is a simple optical instrument that uses a convex lens to produce a magnified image of an object, making it appear larger than it is. This is achieved through refraction, where the lens bends light rays so that they converge and create a larger virtual image on the eye's retina. Magnifying glasses are used for various purposes, from reading fine print to inspecting small details in scientific or technical work.
