  1. Surgical Loupes: Factors That Define Their Differences

  2. A surgical loupe is a magnification device that helps you see small objects. Unlike the usual surgical microscope, a surgical loupe is worn in your head or as a sort of eyeglass. It has no handle and it is also easier to use. It can help you get rid of eye strain by enlarging small objects or tiny subjects when conducting precision operations or precision examination. https://www.loupedirect.com/

  3. Selecting the Right Surgical Loupes Although surgical loupes share the same purpose and use, they are not made equal. Since there are different types of loupes available in the market today, you have to know how to pick the right one for you. Here are some major factors that will help you select the best surgical loupes. https://www.loupedirect.com/

  4. Magnification The magnification level is considered as the most subjective factor that you need to consider when choosing the right surgical loupes for you. If you want to see a larger image, try to get a loupe with higher magnification. But remember that the higher the magnification is, the smaller the field of view and the shorter the depth of field will be. If you are not yet sure what will work best for you, settle for 2.5x or 3.0x magnification factor. This level is applicable for simple surgical cases. If you need a loupe that you can use when performing a more complicated or delicate medical procedure, pick the one with at least 3.5x to 4.5x magnification factor. You can use higher magnification surgical loupes when you are conducting a microsurgery or perhaps when working with a very small area.

  5. Working Distance The working distance is the distance between the lens of the loupe and the top area of your subject. In order to get the right working distance, try to sit down or stand up comfortably without bending your back or leaning forward too much and then place one end of the measuring tool on your eyes and the other end at the top of the subject as shown below. https://www.loupedirect.com/

  6. Interpupillary Distance The interpupillary distance is the distance between the pupil of your right eye and the pupil of your left eye. In selecting surgical loupes, opt for the one that you are comfortable with. For utmost comfort, you must pick the type of surgical loupe that perfectly fits your eyes. You can ask an optometrist for the exact measurement of your interpupillary distance.

  7. Depth of Field The depth of field is directly associated with the magnification factor and the working distance of the loupes. It is the amount of depth that will stay in focus when you look at the subjects while wearing surgical loupes. https://www.loupedirect.com/

  8. Field of View The field of view of the surgical loupe includes all the things that you can see when you focus your sight in one direction while wearing the loupe. When picking the right surgical loupe, always remember that if the loupe has a longer working distance, its field of view is also greater and if the magnification factor is lower, its field of view is also larger. https://www.loupedirect.com/
