This is description of this part:
Hard plastic eyecups (not soft rubber eyecups) for PZO microscope eyepieces with a 23.2 mm mounting diameter.
These eyecups are fitted onto microscope eyepieces and serve two main purposes:
- they allow the user to comfortably rest their head against the eyepieces, reducing neck strain during prolonged microscope work (this is not possible with soft rubber eyecups)
- they block stray light entering from the sides, reducing reflections and improving image contrast
This offer includes 2 (two) pieces, i.e. one pair.
A few quick facts:
- these eyecups fit PZO eyepieces only
- these eyecups fit only PZO eyepieces with a mounting diameter of 23.2 mm
- these eyecups DO NOT FIT older PZO eyepieces with a knurled outer edge — an example of such eyepieces can be seen in the last gallery photograph
- the last gallery photograph shows an example of these eyecups installed on microscope eyepieces
Important: no dimensions are provided here. These eyecups fit only 23.2 mm microscope eyepieces manufactured by PZO (PZO Poland / PZO Warszawa). They do not fit microscope eyepieces made by other manufacturers. If a microscope made by another manufacturer (e.g. Lomo Biolam) uses PZO eyepieces, these eyecups will fit. If a PZO microscope (e.g. PZO Biolar) uses eyepieces made by another manufacturer (e.g. Carl Zeiss Jena), these eyecups will not fit even though the microscope itself is made by PZO. These eyecups fit the eyepieces — not a specific microscope.
What is this part needed for?
- if you use PZO microscope eyepieces and need matching eyecups
