What are ergo loupes and how do they work?

The term ‘ergo loupes’ has gained significant attention among dentists, surgeons and other health professionals. However, for us at Optergo, ‘ergo loupes’ is not just another saying; it’s a concept that combines two crucial elements – ergonomics and optics.

In most cases on the market today, Ergo Loupes refers to a loupe system that both magnifies and alters the direction of vision. This means that when you are looking into the loupes your view is angled downward and at the same time, the loupes provide a magnified image, which is claimed to improve ergonomics. If only it were that simple.

Unfortunately, the term Ergo Loupesas it known as today is misleading, as ergonomics involves far more than just this. For instance, the angle at which the light is bent must be accurate, the positioning of the loupes in the glasses should be optimal, and the magnification should be appropriate, not excessive, and based on your specific work situation. The weight on your neck should be minimised, and you must also consider ergonomics when you’re not looking through the loupes. Make sure that the loupes you choose take all aspects into account.

It all starts with the right ergonomics

At Optergo, we believe that ergonomics and optics should be seen as distinct yet complementary elements. It all starts with the right ergonomics, the foundation of a healthy and comfortable work environment. For professionals in dentistry, surgery, and other health professionals, posture and body positioning play a crucial role in reducing strain, fatigue, and long-term injuries.

First, our product specialists will help you find the perfect ergonomic position that suit you. Then, we will design the lenses and magnification systems to support and enhance that position. That is where the ergonomic aspect of Optergo’s loupes come in. Our solutions are designed to support your natural posture, helping you work more efficiently without compromising your health.

Everything is personalized for you

Once ergonomics is in place, the next step is personalized optics. Every professional has unique visual needs, which is why our loupes are tailored to provide sharp, precise vision while also guiding you to maintain the best possible ergonomic posture.

At Optergo, we believe that precision and personalization make all the difference. We customize your loupes to match your working distance, pupillary distance, and visual preferences. We customise our loupes to fit your perfect ergonomic situation, which may be different from the distance you are used to working. But to make a real change, you often need to change what you’re used to doing, too.
