If you have ever used binoculars, you may have experienced the frustrating issue of double vision. This problem happens when the lenses are out of alignment and can cause a blurry, distorted image. Fortunately, this issue is not permanent and can be quickly fixed with a few simple steps.
The first step in resolving double vision from your binoculars is to locate the adjusting screws near the eyepieces. Take one lens and defocus it 1/8 of a turn. If there is an improvement, then you can keep the setting or adjust further until there is no longer any double vision present. While doing this, make sure to alleviate any shaking with a stabilizing device such as a tripod or monopod for better accuracy and steadiness throughout the process.
It’s important to ensure that every component is properly aligned to get optimum performance from your binoculars. To do this, you will need to check that both sides completely sync with each other while they move at the same intensity when focusing or zooming on specific objects within range. You should also check for any dust particles on the lenses or body so that they don’t interfere with visibility when using them again after making adjustments.
Take Away:
Having a double vision in binoculars can be annoying and discouraging, but luckily it doesn’t have to stay that way! By following these simple instructions, you should be able to quickly and easily fix your binoculars so that they are back up and running at their best performance level again!
