    mono vision contacts

    I am trying out some monovison contacts. I am left handed and my left eye (dominant) has a lens for up close and the right eye for distance. I am tired of tilting my head way back to see the sights with my glasses. I don't know if this is going to work or not. I am trying to shoot with both eyes open since with my left eye I can see the sights great but the target at 20 ft. is real blurry. I hope I can get used to this. I am practicing with a BB gun in the garage. Not very good yet.

    I hate old eyes too. Wait 'till you get to deal with cataracs and they tell you your insurance will not pay for the surgury until they are "ripe". I feel like a fruit awaiting the picking.

    I have been fighting that for awhile, my eye Doctor said I am eligible for surgery now. Thank you Medicare and Tricare, I'm not ready to do it yet though.

    76 Warlock get the cataract surgery!!! After most of my life ( 8th grade to 66yrs old) being near sighted and putting up with glasses I had cataract surgery on my dominate right eye. I can drive without glasses,see targets and do all sorts of wonderful things. Surgery went fine but I didn't heal very fast. If your eye isn't healed in 3-4 weeks talk to your Dr. he can help.

    What do the docs say about shooting the heavy kicking magnums with the lens inserts?
