I just had my eye check up and was wondering if I would get glasses configured for shooting.
i have progressives and I can get the front sight sharp if I put my neck up at an unnatural angle for shooting. I've always shot with blurred front sight since I shoot in the distance part of the lenses.
I have the focal length for 24 inches which should give me +/- 6 inches with good focus at that distance.
my question is what configuration did you have your glasses at. 1)i.e dominant eye single vision for front sight and non dominant with progressive or just single vision for distance.
2)my optometrist mentioned double d glasses(not as sexy as it sounds) where you have bifocal closer distance at top of lens and bottom and distance in middle. apparently chopper pilots in the military would use this so they can see their instrument panels overhead and below. I had asked about glasses where close vision was in the top of the lens(like what some plumbers used and what some high power shooters used accdg to a coworker) when he mentioned this.
one configuration might be cheaper like 1) so if it works for some might get it.
