Good idea about the different lenses Seabear. I just hit the ole' "double nickel" last week, and have struggled with the frustration of ever-widening groups with each passing year since I turned 40. The problem is clearly focusing on the front sight. It was nothing but a blur with bifocals, and in my variable focus contacts, I have, count 'em, TWO front sights to choose from! (hmmm..which is real, which is the mirage?)

Finally got my eye doc (Dr. Angela Blanchard in Cedar Park - she's great!) to write me a script for 'mid-range' lenses that are specifically regulated to be 'on' at 24". For about $100 had a pair of mono vision safety glasses made up that now reside in my range bag. Groups have returned to a size well under the embarrassment threshold inside of 15 yds., since at least I can now clearly see the sight picture. The problem now is seeing the target clearly, but I would rather have that fuzzy than the sights.

Admittedly, not a perfect solution, but a resonable alternative to nothing at all. Now, then comes the issue of what happens should I ever have to draw down for credit... know your realistic limits!
