Hi! A company called Q-Optics came to our school yesterday to present about our loupes we will be ordering next week. I know for sure I’ll be purchasing the ergo loupes, so my question is about magnification. Our instructor advised us to not go above 3.0 if we are going with the ergo loupes. Although, when trying them on, many of us liked the 3.5 magnification. Seniors in our program gave us mixed reviews, some saying 3.0 isn’t enough and that 3.5 is too much. I planned on trusting my instructor who was a hygienist for many years as I’m sure she knows what she’s talking about. But I feel conflicted and this is a huge purchase lol. They do have a 45 day trial period where we are able to change these kinds of things.

What magnification did you guys go with when ordering loupes and what do you like / not like about it? Thanks in advance!
