OK, I know some of you guys are of a certain age, and I'm hoping you've been where I am and found a solution. I'm putting this in Long Guns but it applies equally to handguns. My eyes got to the point at which I was having difficulty seeing targets at any real distance, especially if poorly lighted. Arms length, no problem, but 100 yd, fuzzy. I know, "get a scope"; I have some and they work, but I prefer iron sights.
Eye doc has been bugging me to have cataract surgery, says it will take care of that. So I had the first eye done last Friday; I'm beginning to see OK with it. I told them I wanted sharp resolution at a distance, and that's what I got. Already my resolution at 50-100 yd is better than with my "old" eye, and I'm told it will continue to improve over the next few days. Goodo, right?
The problem is, now I can't see my sights. Those of you who have had this procedure, how did you cope with this? I expected to have glasses anyway, can I get glasses that will let me see my sights clearly enough without diminishing my newfound distance vision? How does that work?
