Types of night vision goggles

Goggles
Night vision goggles allow you to view objects with both eyes, but they offer no magnification. They are mounted to the head, so you don’t have to hold them to your eyes in order to see through them.

Binoculars
Night vision binoculars also allow you to view objects with both eyes, and they provide magnification as well. They’re fairly heavy, though, so they can’t be mounted to the head.

Monoculars
Night vision monoculars only allow you to view objects with one eye and offer no magnification. They are compact and lightweight, though, so they’re usually easy to use, and can be mounted to the head.
