A doublet lens is a type of lens made up of two simple lenses paired together. Such an arrangement allows for more optical surfaces, thicknesses, and formulations, especially as the space between lenses may be considered an “element” with respect to the lens design. A triplet lens is a compound lens consisting of three single lenses. A triplet lens provides a number of degrees of freedom to allow the lens design to overcome potential Seidel aberrations. Overcoming potential aberrations sharpens the image along with displaying a larger viewing area.

Referring to FIG. 7, in operation, incident light that passes through the hypotenuse side 512 and strikes the mirrored coated surface 511 surface of the Littrow prism at a nominal angle, returns back using the same path. In spectrum dispersion applications utilizing white light, the resolution performance of Littrow prisms is equal to equilateral prisms since the optical path length through the glass substrate is the same distance round-trip. Additionally, light entering through the third side 513 will reflect twice inside the prism before being emitted through the hypotenuse side at 60°. The Littrow prism 510 will have a ray deviation of 60° when a mirror coated surface is used.

Referring generally to FIGS. 1-6, The surgical loupes 100, have a surface of the Littrow prism 510 coated with material so as to be mirror in a manner that will cause light impacting the mirror coating to be reflected towards the interior of the Littrow prism 510. The mirror coating allows reflections and prevents having ghost images. With first surface mirror coatings, the coated surface faces the incident light in order to minimize energy loss by not allowing light to pass through the glass substrate.

The mirror coated Littrow prism 510 is positioned proximate to a user's eye, with its slanted surface (the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the cross-section of the prism) positioned proximate to viewing lens 121 through which the user looks. In an embodiment, an additional doublet lens is placed between the Littrow prism 510 and the viewing lens 121. In an embodiment, a triplet lens is placed between the Littrow prism 510 and the viewing lens 121. In an embodiment, both doublet and triplet lenses are used in various combinations between the Littrow prism 510 and the viewing lens 121. The lenses used depend on the desired magnification. In an embodiment, the lenses are positioned downward at an angle above one another. In an embodiment, the lenses are positioned centric to another with a tilt of approximately 60 degrees due to the ray deviation of the prism. In an embodiment, the lenses are grouped in three sections, which permits the user to rotate and shift the group of lenses inward or outward. The center lens or group of lenses can move as the left lens housing 112 or the right lens housing 114 is rotated. Groups of lenses permit reduction of aberrations and display a sharper image. Moving the respective location of the lenses permit the lenses to zoom in and out of the working area.

Referring to FIG. 8 for reference, in an embodiment, eyewear 800 is operably connected to a portion of the surgical loupes. In an embodiment, eyewear 800 has operably connected to it a vibration mechanism 810.
