Monoculars

Monoculars are essentially compact retractable telescopes that are utilized for multiple applications. The visual magnification principle is comparable to the one utilized in binoculars - a set of prisms is arranged in a particular pattern to create an enlarged picture of an object-of-interest. Monoculars may be applied for close inspection of a distant object, similarly to binoculars. We provide a great selection of monoculars from the best manufacturers in the industry.

A monocular appeared shortly after the creation of a telescope. Modern-day monoculars utilize both prisms and Keplerian optics. The main distinction that sets apart these two devices lies in the picture that is created - monoculars provide a 2D image, whereas binoculars create a 3D picture. Monoculars are chosen over their counterparts for two main reasons. The first one - it is required to have a lightweight compact optical tool. Even though present-day technologies allow to create binoculars that are compact and lightweight, a monocular of the same magnifying rate is always at least two times smaller and therefore lighter. The second one - it is impossible to use binoculars in some situations. Most frequently, monoculars are utilized by people with poor sight or without one eye at all. Monoculars, unfortunately, are not as diverse in their design as their counterparts, however, we offer a vast range of optical tools that will suit your specific need.
