Adjusting the Eyecups

Adjusting the Interpupillary Distance

The interpupillary distance 
(IPD) is the distance between the 
centers of the left and right eye 
pupils. Match the IPD of your 
eyes to that of the binocular by 
rotating the binocular barrels 
inward or outward until you 
see a single image that is free of 
shading.

IPD

Adjust the IPD for a custom 
fit and better views.

Binocular Adjustments

The Viper R/T binocular feature winged eyecups that block 
out stray light and rotate for a custom fit. These eyecups 
roll up and down so any viewer can take advantage of the 
long eye relief and enjoy comfortable, full-field viewing 
even when wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses.
