I absolutely love how my back feels after each day using Hero Loupes! The design is amazing, and such a large difference from the loupes I've been using since graduating dental school. It's not just an investment in my comfort, but also the longevity of my career as a dentist. The light is so bright and focused as well. It's obvious that a lot of thought and improvements have went into this product to become what it is today. I am so happy I decided to try a pair! I couldn't recommend them enough.

Hero Loupes oculars are extremely light and leave plenty of room below the oculars for peripheral vision to look at radiographs or look down at a document.
The frames fit perfectly and are very stable so I don’t have to adjust the frame to see accurately through the oculars.
The carrying case is well made and the zippers are sturdy.
I like the adjustability of the oculars and the videos about how to make the adjustments make the process easy.
Thanks Hero Loupes!

I should have gotten ergo loupes earlier -- honestly, I was scared of being dizzy and having disorientation. I was very surprised to see that I adapted to ergo loupes very fast! My neck already feels better! I like how light the light is and how sharp the beam of light is -- there is a crisp and definitive edge to the light and it does not "bleed" outside the ring of light. Light is also uniform in both color and intensity with no areas of light difference. Construction feels very solid to me also!

I've been a huge advocate for ergonomics and quality products for healthcare providers, and HERO LOUPES truly aligns with wanting the best by being one of the best out there. Not only is the measurement experience easy and accurate on the first try, they also have an amazing customer service team. I also appreciate the founder also works alongside the team to ensure each customer gets the best loupes possible, giving better quality of care for our public. LOVE the EVO XL 5.0! I see more field without compromising the magnification, and along with the new Hero Light, visibility is pristine. My neck, shoulders, and back have never felt better. Thank you HERO LOUPES!

These are amazing loupes and for a great price! I switched from regular loupes to these with no problem. My neck is thanking me every day because I made the switch. My only caveat is the battery light - it dies after 1-2 hours of usage. But I overcome this by keeping the extra battery nearby on the charger and just swap them out throughout the day. Other than that, these loupes are worth every penny and well worth it - your back and neck will truly thank you! On a side note, customer service is great, responsive, and helpful - thank you Hero Loupes.

Designed to Alleviate Neck & Back Pain for Dental Professionals
These side shields fit perfectly on my Hero Loupes. They’re much sturdier than the ones that originally came with my loupes. The price is very reasonable as well.
I’m in love with hygiene again. I am seeing so much more. Not straining to see the markings on the probe and my back and neck don’t ache. It’s been 2 weeks for me and I never want to go a day without these loupes. I wish I had ordered sooner. The adjustment to Ergo loupes was far easier for me than when I first got regular loupes. No headaches or needing to use them half a day etc, I was able to just jump in and wear them the whole day and will never look back
Minor adjustment was simple and easy following the video instructions. Everyone at work is amazed how different my posture is. No more looking up to see who walked into my room as I am working. No more pain and knot. Its amazing. Goes to prive you can teach an old dog new tricks!!!
I’ve been wearing them for 2 weeks now and I get no more neck pain! I’m so surprised and glad this product works I rlly needed it as a dental assistant!
Love my wireless light!!!! Came with 3 batteries and a very nice charging g port that lets 2 charge, while using the third. I typically get through the morning with one, then switch out at lunch which still leaves me a backup. They have different brightness settings and a removable amber filter. More lightweight than I expected! The corded light was very nice as well, but loved that the batteries switched out so easily with their magnetic attachments! LOVE how clearly I can see everywhere & anywhere! Would highly recommend.
Purchasing Hero Ergo XL Loupes was such a smooth process from start to finish! They were perfect out of the box! Took less than 2 days to fully adjust and less than a week to realize how much less pain I was in at the end of the day!! The hardest part was realizing how much I did NOT have to move my neck and head to see. The peripheral vision is impressive. Customer Service has been exceptional and I love that there’s a 45 day trial period…..you won’t need it because you’ll be in love after your second patient.
Highly recommend Hero Ergo Loupes! Lightweight. Incredible field of vision as well as peripheral vision. Just wish I had ordered sooner!
This prism piece is a different but great way to be able to view things. It helps to relieve the stress on your neck if you have to look down a lot or turn your head many times a day while working. Being a dentist, this works so well to see what needs to be seen.
The Hero Loupes are excellent quality and clarity. I appreciate that my visual field in clear and focused, all the while I am able to keep my neck in alignment! I have just as much fun using these for scrolling on my phone at home. I think this whole tech generation could use a pair of these, because the neck strain and arthritis is a legit concern. The lanyard with the adjustable slide keeps my glasses snug and comfortable. I think these are really cool.
If you are tired of going home every night with a stiff neck, tension headaches, or lower back aches, this is absolutely worth it.
It addresses the exact occupational hazard we face daily without forcing us to buy multi thousand dollar custom loupes we don't actually need. It’s lightweight, incredibly easy to use, and a massive win for workplace ergonomics.
These are lightweight and super easy to clip on any eye wear! Working in the medical field, I look down a lot, and it works a number on my neck. To be able to clip these on and see everything without having to physically turn my head down to see it is a miracle! I love that these fit all types of eye wear. The fact that they flip up for when you don't need them is great too. Well worth the price!
I've been using the Hero Loupes Sidekick for detail-oriented work and it's made a noticeable difference in how clearly I can see small details. The magnification is sharp and helped me focus on fine tasks without constantly leaning in or straining my eyes.
One thing I really like is how lightweight it feels. Highly recommend!
I went from a 5x mag lamp straight to the 6x hero loupes and although it took a few days to adjust, once I put a concerted effort into using them they instantly became my go to and I've not touched my mag lamp since. The clarity is great and while my field of vision is certainly smaller than under a mag lamp I'm quickly adjusting to this new normal. I'm happy with my decision to get them.
These Loupes are so lightweight . They are by far my favorite Loupes ever. I already had 3.0 ergo loupes from orascoptic...but these 3.5 super lightweight heros are the best ever! The fact that i can adjust them myself is a game changer. Thanks so much Hero Loupes
Rhonda Phillips, RDH
These have been a game changer!! I'm only a week in and I feel so much better already!! The light is bright and the lenses are crystal clear. Mybonly regret is waiting so long to order them!!
Love my wireless head light. I've used a corded light for over 10 years. Ever since I started using the wireless light I realize how free I am to move during procedures. I also do not get caught on random things by my cord wrapped behind my back.
I was skeptical before purchasing but works well! I compared to other similar item after used SIDEKICK. This is so much better overall, high quality and lightweight is huge difference to others!
I have edited this review after wearing these loupes for 5 1/2 months
The first few days were challenging as I was getting accustomed to the increased magnification and positioning my head differently, by by the end of two weeks I felt as though I had used them for years. The step up in magnification from 2.5 to 3.5 for me has been wonderful, I appreciate the extra detail. The field of vision is better than my conventional loupes and it has been magic for my neck and back. It has been especially beneficial for patients who are difficult to position because they don't want to recline as much, I no longer have to lean over at awkward angles.
There have been a few problems though
1. The nose pads/ cushions are much more uncomfortable than my old Orascoptic sports frame loupes, they really dig into my face and I had to put my mask under the nose pads to tolerate. I ended up having to buy some alternatives on Amazon, they are helpful.
2. There is no option on the frame to screw in an attachment for my headlight (Ultralight). The headlight attachment that clips on and is not fixed can move, so sometimes it is not aligned and there are shadows. I've been using a fixed mount for my loupes headlight for about 17 years so this adjustment is very frustrating.
3. The loupes are self adjusting, but this adds more frustration as the screwdriver is difficult to insert when the loupes are in place on my face. I ended up stripping one of the screws and this caused a lot of problems with the lens randomly loosening up, my vision becoming compromised mid-treatment, difficulty tightening it etc. HEROES was very helpful and sent me replacement screws, but I feel as though my previous 2 pairs of loupes were through-the-lens fixed, no self adjustment (it was never necessary in the 23 years that I've been using loupes) and in my opinion that means less moving parts so less potential for problems.
4. When I am cleaning them, sometimes water randomly seems to get into the loupes lenses and that affects the clarity of the lens and it takes about 24 hours to evaporate. Additionally it makes me concerned that it may be possible for debris to get in. Again I think that this is the result of the loupes being adjustable and just too many moving parts
5. The rubber arm which goes behind the ears can also be removed from the frame. I am small/ petite and so I have to tighten the head strap a lot, from the constant day-to-day of tightening the strap and loosening it, the rubber arm has loosened up and sometimes mid-procedure it slips off of the frame and the loupes become off centered which again creates frustrations.
I am very happy with the customer service and the ergonomic design and increased magnification. However I think that this product can go from good to excellent if there were fewer moving parts and therefore less potential for slipping and things going out of place. Additional operator comfort is important so sobering should be done to improve the comfort of the frames, specifically the nose pads
My assistant is very tall and her back hurts after working with me all day as I am very short, but with the Sidekick she can sit upright with great posture so there's much less fatigue at the end of the day.
Ever since using Hero Loupes my back feels much better now that I don’t have to compensate ergonomics for clarity. As someone who has never used ergo loupes in his 2 years of dental hygiene experience, it was a completely new and refreshing experience. The package feels very premium and not to mention very stylish. Many loupe companies offered the same frame styles but Hero loupes had a collection of very stylish/ professional looking frames- on top of the magnifications that come in different colors. Overall, I’ve been happy with Hero Loupes! Definitely recommend them!
The loupes work well and really help my neck and back. I assist in many head and neck surgeries weekly. The only issue I have is the nose piece. It is very uncomfortable and causes pain during surgeries. I have adjusted it but it does not help. It deters me from wearing my loupes in really long cases.
I’m absolutely loving my Hero wireless light! It’s everything you want in a portable light - it's bright, lightweight, and the batteries are magnetic, which makes it really easy to change. Plus, you can charge two lights at once with a single charger, while using the third - which makes life so much easier.
I love the function of these glasses and has made assistanting chairside and doing prophy better on my body. A few things that can improve. The loupes tilt down and rest on safety glasses so I have to tilt my head back to get a good view. I placed a jewerly wire to keep the lens looking forward. For being $200 I feel there should be something to adjust it.
I just received my Hero Loupes Ergo a few days ago, and they’ve already exceeded my expectations. The overall quality is excellent, and the optics are crisp and easy to work with. The light is bright and clear, which really helps with visibility without being harsh on the eyes. The frames are extremely lightweight and surprisingly comfortable, making them easy to wear throughout long hours. Even after just a few uses, I can tell the ergonomic design is helping my posture and reducing neck and shoulder strain. I’m really happy with them so far and would highly recommend anyone to move forward with this brand, you won't regret it!
This is a definite Game Changer!!! My hip and back aches went away since Day 1. Didn’t think that it would be possible since going to my chiropractor is never enough. But since I started using my Hero Loupes, I do not have neck, back and hip pain anymore. I have been recommending it to my colleagues.
