I am planning to buy some sort of magnifying glass for working with electronic boards and smaller stuff, things which sometimes require accuracy and precision.
My idea was to look for something comfortable, hands free and do not strain my eyesight too much.
Would the binocular glasses usually worn by medics/odontologists/etc. accomplish my goal?
Or should i look for something like a magnifying glass stand?
So what's your opinion /diy/?

Magnifying glass stand.
Like the other anons said it's the best option.
And if you're going to be soldering don't forget to get some adjustable bendy arm clamps

Optivisors are WAY cheaper and effective. This is what I wear for jewelry, and they have interchangable magnifier lenses and accessories like shadowless led lights. Comfortable and they won't fall off if you're bending over.
Cons: they have a much shorter focal length than the ones you posted. About 4 inches usually. I tried on a surgeon's pair of binocular lenses and the focal length was about 2 feet (but $800 a pop). Jewelers use high benches, so the optivisors are just fine.
Pic related has some pretty good accessories attached.

I bought a pair of these for working on miniature models but I can't wear them with my glasses effectively and if I wear them without my glasses I can't see shit.
