Overview of Video Microscopes / Magnifiers |
| |
| Looking into the eyepieces of conventional stereo microscopes for the first time is usually not an easy task. Although clarity of image and depth perception are achieved by the experienced user, the beginner may see double images, half moons, and in general have a difficult time coordinating the visual paths. With practice, the visual artifacts disappear and the eyes learn to produce a good stereo image. |

Although the eyes may adapt to the complex task of looking through eyepieces, it requires continual effort to align and integrate the visual information. Over time, this sustained effort produces fatigue. Physical fatigue in the neck, shoulders, and back develops from holding the head in an exact position to keep the eyes aligned in the precise path of the microscope optics. Visual fatigue results from the eye muscles performing precise coordination of movements and held in an exact position for long periods. Mental fatigue develops from the brain working constantly to integrate and combine information from two separate visual paths to produce the “stereo” image. |
