Goggles of minute seeing

Goggles of minute seeing were enchanted Lantanese helmets, often used by the island's archeologists.

Description
Goggles in name only, these magical helmets, or more precisely, metallurgist's faceguard helms, were designed in a distinctly Lantanese fashion. The helmet's front had an intricate series of lenses that could be rotated and placed in front of the wearer's eyes.

Powers
The helmet's lenses allowed the wearer to see even the smallest details up-close. These magic lenses made the goggles of minute seeing invaluable when examining one's environment or trying to identify strange and possibly dangerous items.

History
This particular type of helmet was created in Lantan to be used by archeologists when dealing with various contraptions of old. By the late 14 century DR, these helmets gained some popularity along the Sword Coast and even the Nelanther Isles.

As of the late 15 century DR, versions of the goggles existed with applications in combat.
