True "magnifying" requires more than one lens, something like a loupe or clip-on magnifiers. I know these are clunky, and it's why dentists pay a couple thousand to make custom "telescope" glasses with their prescription ground in.
More practically, bringing work close to your eyes has the effect of magnifying, since anything that is closer "subtends a larger angle" ie makes the image on your retina bigger.
At age 30 you should be able to hold things close and keep them in focus. Later on you can't focus as well, so to keep the same effect ("relative distance magnification") you will need a reduced power in your glasses to hold things closer, something we do with bifocals. In a pinch, you could get a drastic amount of this relative distance mag by taking your glasses off and holding your work at 12 cm.
The most practical suggestion might be a table magnifier for your work area.
