Many/most people use a  light table or "shelved" mostly vertical 
display which has room for many slides, sometimes on rows, and a 
loupe to look for sharpness, composition.

You can also buy $20 reading glasses or half-glasses from a pharmacy 
to look close easily. Get the highest power you can find, usually 3 
dioptres or more. You can also stack these in front of your eyes.
