“See things down to 1/10th the width of your hair with our 15x lens. To get started, simply put dotlens in front of your smartphone camera. No glue, no attachments, no hassles. Dotlens:
• Is fully inkjet printed.
• Works by attaching to the smartphone camera lens directly, no barrels, clips, attachments, just an elegantly designed lens.
• Has an identical optical power as professional microscope lenses that cost ten to a hundred times more.
• Is easy to remove without residue.
