Import Tips
• Classify as 'assistive reading device' but confirm no medical prescription requirement to avoid orthopedic appliance rules
• Material content declaration crucial—acrylic domes risk plastic classification if optics deemed secondary
• Import singly, not in sets with stands that could classify as furniture
