Optivisor

OptiVISOR with GLASS or plastic lenses

Binocular Headband Magnifier

The DA-X (GLASS) and LX-X (plastic) series

Be aware that there are people selling the cheaper plastic lenses LX version as if was the D-x versions of the Optivisor. The way to tell them apart is the real glass ones have a blueish tint to the lens. You get what you pay for as the cheap plastic lenses scratch more easily and can be ruined with just a single drop of solvent. The DA-X OptiVISOR has true optical glass lenses that resist scratching and solvents.

If you are over 40, like I am, you have probably noticed that small parts seem to keep getting smaller and harder to see.

Don't let your vision keep you from enjoying your work. The OptiVISOR is the fountain-of-youth for your eyes; it lets you see the small things just as you did as a teenager.

With optional Optiloupe for extra close inspection

The OptiLOUPE LP-1 attachment multiplies the magnification by 2 1/2 times.

and we also stock the replacement lens plates for the DA-X series (LP-X)

Picking the right Power

The DA-5 (the 5 stands for 5 Dioptre magnification) is what we recommend for general use. Other powers (2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10) are available from stock. Measure your working distance as a guide to which power to select - and consider adding the Lp-1

For example, if you would need to hold the item about 8 inches away to see the entire object and be close enough to see the details you would pick a DA-5 which has a 8" distance listed below. You can always call us and ask which one makes sense for a particular job.

Good for finding nits (cooties) and lice.
