Diopter lenses for the Nikon FA, FM, FM-2, FE and FE-2 will fit the X-Pro 1. Thanks - that's nice to know. Nikon quality should certainly be every bit as good.AND they do them in 1/2 strength too. But alas I just can't find any that I'd want on present search. Depending on your FPV goggles the lenses will come in a 3D printed frame that you simply slide into the diopter slots of your goggles. Obviously I could not wait to try them out, and I have to say, I was impressed from the get go. The diopters fit perfectly into the lens slots on my Sky03O goggles. Diopter filters are just like a magnifying glass for your lens. They also shift the minimal focus distance so you can get macro shots without having to use a macro lens. They can be used to increase the magnification of a lens when you need to get really close-up images of small objects. The diopter adjustment allows you to customize the viewfinder so that you can see a clear, focused image inside the viewfinder without using eyeglasses or contact lenses to correct your vision. I used to spend an inordinate amount of time at a fantastic camera store in San Diego.

  • Questions?
What diopter (or lens power) monocle is right for me?
The best way to determine your needed visual correction is to visit your optometrist. He or she will be able to check your vision and provide an accurate assessment of your needs.
If you already wear reading glasses, then choose a monocle that is the same diopter as your current reading glasses, rounding up to the nearest 0.50 diopter. For example: if your reading glasses are +1.25, get a monocle that is +1.50. If your reading glasses are +2.75, then get a monocle that is +3.00.
Finally, you can also use our Home Eye Test to test your vision to approximate your needed vision correction:
  1. Print out the test and follow the on-page instructions
  2. Order your monocle and enjoy!

Do you sell +1.25 or +1.75 diopter monocles? What about other +0.25 increments?
Unfortunately we only offer our monocles in diopter increments of +0.5. However, the difference between a +1.25 lens and a +1.50 (or +1.75 and +2.00) diopter lens is quite small. We recommend 'rounding up' to the nearest +0.50 diopter.
And - if you absolutely must have a +1.25 (or other +.25 increment) lens, then we will be happy to create a custom Prescription Monocle to meet your needs.
What is diopter?

Diopter is a term used to identify the refractive (light bending) capacity of a lens. A higher diopter indicates a higher refractive capacity, and a greater magnification.
