You should not think that optical devices have limited outdoor uses; it is not just that hunters looking for preys use aiming devices and telescopic sighing units, biologists use binoculars to look for animal or vegetal species, or photographers use their cameras and lenses. Optical instruments can be unsed by almost anyone, with a little care.

There are indeed some products which are sophisticated and complex and difficult to use, like the light intensifying devices used by military and law-enforcement personnel, but for most people, these won't be required for normal outdoor activities.

The main problem with optical instrumental and gadgetry is that it is quite expensive: a good light amplification monocular could set you back well over two thousand euros, and when they malfunction or break down you always face two issues: first, it may be difficult to repair such things out in the wild, and second, your pocket will likely suffer a lot afterwards.

So, if you take or plan taking with you such items to the wilderness, into combati, or into any sort of adventure, you should firstly invest in a good carrying cas, better than those usually emplyed by tourists and people that remain in relatively civilised areas or regions; remember, if something breaks while you are away, you may not be apble to fix it.

During expeditions, all your equipment suffers abuse, either by the owners or users who did not make the required investment; owners tend to care more for their property so, extra care should be taken when the user is not the proprietor ot the gear in question.

In the armed forces, for example, supplies depend on an impersonal logistical system far removed from soldiers, who - if not propery disciplined and checked - may care little for what they received.

So, in contexts such as the one mentioned, you should aways add training and recurrent control to the cost of what you purchase; bear in mind this before paying a fortune.
