## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come with a lens cover?**
A: No but I bought a flip up cover for mine. It does come with a carry pouch.

**Q: What is the eye relief (for someone who wears glasses)?**
A: Eye relief for the 8x36 is 18mm, which is probably the best choice for someone wearing glasses (and the reason I chose that particular model)

**Q: Does this ship from Vortex or a retailer?  Thanks**
A: A retailer.

**Q: Does this monocular have an "infinity"? i.e. is there a distance beyond which you no longer have to focus?  If so, how far out is it?**
A: I focused mine at 100 yards and anything further is in focus.  I have viewed items at a closer distance, say to 25 yards, and it is still in focus. Hope this helps.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great monocular. Great company.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States December 25, 2025*

I purchased this item in February 2021. I carry this when I hike or travel on my motorcycle. I use it mainly to observe wildlife. I like that it is light weight and that I can see clearly thru it. It has survived in temperatures between a little below zero to above 120 degrees. I keep it in the carrying case unless I take it out to use it. Three weeks ago I could not get it to focus. I got onto Amazon to order another and discovered it has a lifetime warranty. So went to Vortex website and contacted them about what happened. I received an email the next day with instructions and a label to send it in for repair or replacement. A new monocular arrived yesterday.I have purchased four Vortex rifle scopes, one Vortex binocular, and this monocular over the last five years. I am very pleased with the quality of their product. I had no idea there was a lifetime warranty with their products. Vortex is a great company and they produce a great product for my needs. I will definitely purchase more from this company.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb Optics
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 6, 2024*

This is my first and only vortex product and I get the hype. There is very little color fringing and the 8x36 configuration is BRIGHT. The eyecups are great and this thing is built very well. Add in the no fault warranty and these are a winner. I got these when they were on sale for ≈70 bucks and they are a steal for that price. I would say they are a great buy at their regular price too. These are very portable, very clear, and the focusing is precise. I will say that the focus wheel is a tad stiff but overall it is negligible. Buy these if you just want a great monocular. I have tried the cheaper ones and they are passable to good, but these blow those out of the water.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for my use. I would purchase again. Excellent quality and no issues
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 10, 2025*

The good:1. Good quality2. Fog resistant compared to others I have3. Clear glass, very clear4. Wide viewThings you might not like:It's a little bulky, you can't fit it into most pockets.The clip works, but it's a little heavy.One handed operation for focusing...probably not realistic.Great quality and optics, but don't compare it to their rifle scopes...those are better.
