My solution for for my old eyes, is for books where the font seems too small in calibre's viewer I convert the epub to epub and in the Conversion settings pop up I adjust the following.

Look & Feel
Fonts tab
Uncheck Disable font size rescaling
Base font size: 15.0 pt
Font size key: 14, 14, 15, 15, 17, 17, 24, 36

This seems to work fine for me. Most of the time (90%) I don't do this, but for those books where the font is just too small I find that this works well.
