I'm in the market for loupes, and have done a search of the forums for info. However, I am looking for some current opinions from surgeons. A lot of the posts are on the dentistry forums.
First of all, I'm wondering why just about every surgeon I know owns Design for Vision. Are their optics so superior over everyone else's? I would like to find a pair of sports frames, rather than the traditional military issue black frames, and DFV doesn't seem to offer them.
Other names I've heard include Orascoptic, for example, which is directed toward the dentistry crowd. As much as doctors snub their noses at dentists, they do do more intricate work a lot of times. So could their loupes actually be better? (They also earn a helluvalot more money because of insurance reimbursements, from what I hear, so they can probably afford better loupes).
Any thoughts? Thanks.
