• Myth #1 – Magnification will harm my vision.
  On the contrary – wearing optical loupes will dramatically increase image size while allowing for you to work at a farther distance from the patient.  The larger sized images reduce strain and stress on the eyes, while viewing an enhanced image.

• Myth #2 – Through-the-lens (TTL) loupes are better than flip-up loupes.
  Both through-the-lens and flip-up loupes will improve patient care, reduce your fatigue, and improve ergonomic comfort.  This decision is really based on your preference as both types of loupes have their advantages and disadvantages.

So it’s really up to your personal preference.  Currently, dental industry figures show that loupe usage is split between through-the-lens and flip-up wearers.   At SheerVision you have your choice of either loupe design and with our 30-day trial policy – so you can be confident in making your decision.

• Myth #3 – Magnification is only for dentists that need vision correction.
  This is not true.  More loupe users are younger dentists who learned during their recent studies the benefits of using loupes and lighting equipment.  

• Myth #4 – Magnification slows down procedures.
  For any first-time loupe wearer, their is a short adjustment period in order to get comfortable wearing the loupes. 

Most new users of surgical quality loupes experience some initial feelings of awkwardness and disorientation in the first week or two of use.  These feelings are similar to the times you had your first pair of glasses, or when your eyeglass prescription changed.  

If the user experiences these feelings, then we recommend that their loupes are only used 20-30 minutes at a time performing simple procedures..  As the user’s eyes accustom themselves to the increased magnification, then the usage period can then be extended. After the first few weeks, loupes can enhance diagnostic and treatment procedures, and boost production due to reduced eye, neck, and back fatigue.

• Myth #5 – Loupe quality is directly related to price
  While their are “cheap” loupes in the marketplace - each with poor quality optics, many of the brand-name loupes are of exceptional optical quality. SheerVision loupes are noteworthy for their expansive field-of-view (the size of the magnified view you can see) and exceptional depth-of-field - which allows you to move your head without losing your focus.

However, by ordering manufacturer-direct — eliminating the mark-ups of dealers and distributors — SheerVision can you save up to 40% over our competitor’s prices for our surgical-quality loupes.

So with SheerVision you’re not only getting the best quality, you’re also getting the best value. 

Plus their is SheerVision's 30-day trial, with a 100% money-back guarantee, unmatched personal support, and an unlimited lifetime warranty on the optics and all working parts of our flip-up hinge mechanisms.

• Myth #6 - Loupe purchases require a fitting or that loupes can’t be purchased online
  This final myth can be put to rest by making a purchase at SheerVision.com.  We don’t require a personalized “fitting” for you to purchase a loupe.  Even with our new Through-the-lens loupes can be easily fitted over the phone or online using our PerfectFit™ system that just requires two measurements.
