Obviously it's for magnification but what specifically is it used for photographically?

Could be a flash "diffuser/filter" thingy?

Nah, it's just a pocket or wallet magnifier. I have used them for years for map reading! (more so these days!) It's a promotional item, or freebie.

Looks like a pocket 'Credit Card' sized Fresnal magnifier, basicly a small magnifying glass, Jessops I think gave them away as freebees

EDIT:

@wontolla beat me to it!

So not as specialised then. Thanks all

It's for reading the small print on the warranty
