Return to practice with confidence

Dentist Daniel Caga explains how he was able to continue using dental loupes during the Covid-19 pandemic with the aid of the Nuview Loupe and Light Visor System.

“I started wearing loupes during the third year of my BDS qualification, so I’ve been using them for most of my practising life. When I qualified as a dentist and moved to my current practice, I wanted a pair of loupes with a higher magnification. After several discussions with friends and having researched and trialled various loupe brands, I purchased a pair of 4.3x magnification Carl Zeiss EyeMag Pro headband loupes from Nuview.

“Naturally, I had become accustomed to using these loupes prior to the pandemic and I wanted to continue using them following my return to work. However, with the increased need for PPE, I became quite concerned that I would not find a visor that would fit with my headband loupes. This would mean that I would either need to work without loupes – something I avoid wherever possible ­– or I would have to buy a new pair of loupes, which I wasn’t keen on doing either.
