Loupes


Salaam-
I need to buy loupes soon. We had some reps come to our school from Designs for Vision, SurgiTel, and Orascoptic. I have a really strong eyeglass prescription and I wear a scarf. Any thoughts on built-in microscopes vs. the flipup kind? For anyone who wears a scarf, should I consider that flipups are heavier and may require a headband which is difficult to wear under my scarf? I'm a pre-doctoral student who will likely specialize (not sure yet in what). I'm looking to get a magnification of 2.5x. Please let me know if you have had positive or negative experiences with any of these companies or any other companies not mentioned.
JazakumAllahu Khairan.

i have orascoptic right now..and i have no problem with it..but then again i wear lenses..but the 2.5 is great..but you know what..lately ive been realizing how much better it would be to have the flip up kind..cause as a dental student we use them as goggles and to have the magnifying part kind of gets in the way...i mostly got orascoptic cause we got a group discount for buying it in bulk (for the whole class)
