Q-OPTICS IS A SCAM COMPANY! BUYER BEWARE. I live in Seattle, WA and tried to purchase a pair of loupes from Q-Optics to help me better see for my quilting. They connected me with the rep, Melissa Meyer. Melissa asked for very odd, personal data prior to meeting with me that made me feel uncomfortable. My niece purchased a pair of loupes in another state and said that she did not encounter such odd questioning and she felt it was all very sketchy. She did some research and found that the rep Q-Optics paired with me has a CRIMINAL HISTORY. I feel so upset that they wanted me to provide financial information to a criminal. I am on a cruise and she asked to call me and leave a voicemail rather than email the type of loupes I want? All of it is so weird. I asked Q-Optics if this was customary and they NEVER COMMUNICATED BACK WITH ME. I feel like this company is either a scam or conducting themselves in a fraudulent manner. Email I sent back to them: Hi Melissa and Ashleigh Is it customary to do background checks on family members of potential customers? My niece asked that I not share any further information and now I am wondering why you asked? I simply wanted a pair of loupes to better see my quilting. Yes, I wear eyeglasses for reading. I thought I could just make a purchase but this is becoming too difficult for us to connect and my niece wrote this: Aunt Deb, I would not normally mind someone "looking up my name and order" but why does this rep need my personal information? Sounds odd. I don't feel comfortable with her wanting to look me up. Why all the weird questions? My guy let me buy whatever I wanted. This is so unprofessional. Just tell her you wanted to buy a pair of loupes and money with you is no object!!! If they are being this difficult then it isn't worth it. I am sorry I suggested them to you but I thought Q-Optics would be a good fit for you because they have more options, but I'm not sure why they are giving you such a runaround. We have heard this from other people here about their reps, so just tell them nevermind, and I'll connect you with someone else. Hope you guys have a great trip and send pics of the reunion!

I know you are on a cruise at the moment but wanted to leave you a voicemail however the number you provided is incorrect. I want to find out your needs in regards to loupes since your are not using them in the medical field. Who is your niece? I would like to look up her order so I know what you tried on and felt comfortable. Also, do you wear eyeglasses? I would like to speak to you prior to meeting. Thank you!

Are you available to meet around 8:30 Friday 08/09? There is a Starbucks near my house on E Madison that is near my dry cleaners. I have two appointments that day so morning is the only time I have available. Looking forward to meeting you.

Hi doc,How do you compare these loupes to univet loupes

I' m a dental student looking for loupe, I was wondering how much does this pair cost ?

9 months wait is a bit insane though :C

You have such an amazingly soothing and calming voice. Your patients are very lucky to have you!

Would you recommend them in 2024?

Great review and very accurate description of pros and cons. Mine have debonded more than once and the fogging I found to be persistent and very frustrating. I’ve now switched to Bilumix - fixed magnification but a much better light with no shadows. Still has some design issues with a weakness in the adjustable head band but I’m happier with these now. Might also be worth a review in future.

Great review ! DigitalTCO has changed my life. Unbelievable product. Do the 28 days , you won't regret it.

Thanks for your review Yusuf. I agree the design needs re-doing, it will evolve 😁I'm glad the letters section is useful, if it can be made better please let me know your thoughts. Cheers

Great take on this fascinating subject! Thanks for sharing 🎉

I am debating Orascoptic ergo loupes or Bryant refractive loupes. Please help 😊

I went to Q optics 4.5x from designs for vision. Big improvement; however, I still can’t adjust to getting my focus thrown off by my long eyelashes. I just ordered the Oroscoptics Eyezoom max loupes with dragonfly which is supposed to balance the weight. I know that you have the regular eyezoom, but how do you compare the quality of image, over all quality, and neck fatigue between the eyezoom and the q-optics? Also, how often do you switch mags while using the eyezoom?

Informative video. How much did these cost you, I appreciate itll be different from customer to customer but a ball park figure would be nice

Thank you for the video Yusuf. İ am a student currently wanting to but loupes. What do you suggest me that is good for the price (I'm not looking above 3000 for at least 3X magnification). Also what is your opinion of not personalised loupes that you can adjust yourself and that are cheaper. (like the ones from AliExpress and some more expensive ones)

18:05 Are you referring to the old lumadent battery or the new one? i cant see how i could accidentaly press it with the later model (not that new so not sure which you referring to). Now youve had some time with the q optic light how does it compare to the lumadent one. I like the toggle switch on the cable that lumadent has which is swaying me towards them. Any insights would be really helpful

which declination angle do you recommend please (the provide 18, 22 and max)

Terrific vid - very thorough and answers a lot of my questions.

Thanks so much for this brilliant review! So glad it's been helping you and Amy out in practice 😍

seeing as youve thoroughly reviewed both these and bryants refractive loupes, which would you now recommend for a general dentist? (putting aside the downsides of refractives when it comes to implants and surgery)

Very helpful review. Can you please details of rep joe . I contacted swallow dental bit no response. Thanks

You should do a video on cameras to record cases without a microscope. Some are quite pricey but some people just use a go pro with a macro lens

This was really helpful - thanks so much!!! 🎉

Awesome stuff Yusuf! Love it.

Hey Yusuf, firstly id like to say thank you for your in-depth review, covering every aspect of owning loupes. I particularly appreciate the perspective from your colleagues. I remember AMT well, the Frothy was the main source of caffeine and sugar throughout uni. Good times. I would love to invite you, Yousuf and Manu to BDHQ Surrey, and show you how these are manufactured here in the UK. We can show you our latest innovations, and fire up the Pizza oven in our staff kitchen. Ill drop you a PM. Id also love to reach out to Manu, and see how we can get them firing on all cylinders for every procedure, even if this means changing his magnification! Connor

Dr-Kim dual magnification ergo loupe headlight is world best loupe system. Pls refer to www.dr-kim.co.kr!

Thank you! I've been looking for information about these loupes for a long time. I'm deciding between the 5.7 or 7.2x now. What type of procedures do you do? I'm sure you get this a lot. Any help would be appreciated!

Having a demo Monday !

Very informative

Great content

What about prismatic univet

👍👍👍

I have one. I requested to have my declination angle at the maximum angle, which they told me was 35 degrees. When it was first delivered to me, I measured the angle and came out as 20. They screwed up and I had to return it to repair. It's a night and day difference with 35 degrees and the default 20. I see 26-28 patients a day and wear this for 8 hours straight. The neck strain is definitely there after a long procedure. 2 long procedures after another, you need a break and stretch a lot. The strain is definitely there. I've tried many other loupes. Clarity on orascoptic wins out of almost everything else. It's why I got it in the first place. The fogging is there too, but it's just in the morning. First patient. I start by spraying air between my face and loupes and the fogging goes away. I also wipe my loupes with anti fogging glasses wipes on a weekly basis. I did hesitate to return it for a 4.5x but I'm happy now. 3x for almost everything for me and 4x and 5x can be a godsend for endo sometimes. I use 4x for deep resto as well. 😊

Very informative - thanks for this review!

I am going to get this beast next month, kindda nice to see your video and your POV on this loops. Thanks for the informative experiences!

i am not a dentist yet i managed to watch 5 minutes

Thanks for the insightful review. Do you find that you switch between the magnification often?

Thank you for these informative, honest insights. How do you find the light and how long does it last?
