What the heck are loupes?

So, while we were dating, Bobby kept talking about dental loupes. They were these amazing, miraculous devices that would make any dentist's life, let alone any dental student's life, just divine. They are objects of power, a kind of status symbol if you will, and apparently they bless the wearer with supremely awesome tooth chiseling skills. I really had no idea what they were except that they somehow made Bobby's life easier and they were very expensive.

So he had a cheap pair and then he was able to get a much nicer pair. So, here are the loupes...cute, no? No?! Well, I think he looks a little silly to be honest, but if it helps him do better, then by all means, wear the loupes!
