2.4.4 Focus Each Eye Individually
Focus each eye separately to accommodate individual vision, you
should not need your glasses when using the microscope. Some
models have diopters on both eyepieces. Some models have a diopter
on only one eyepiece.
If you only have one diopter, focus the eyepiece with the diopter
second. If you have diopters on both eyepieces,
the order doesn‟t
matter. Adjust the first eyepiece with the focusing knobs and the
second with the diopter. Then you can adjust the diopter on the first
eyepiece, if necessary.
1. Look with one eye through the
eyepiece without the diopter.
Or, if you have two diopters,
select either eyepiece.
2. Close your other eye.
3. Focus the image using the
focusing knobs.
Focus with the diopter.
1. Close the first eye. Open the
other one.
2. Look with the second eye
through the eyepiece with the
diopter.
3. Turn the diopter until the image
is clear. Do not turn the
focusing knob when you are
adjusting the diopter or you will
have difficulty focusing properly.
