Default Glasses for Range shooting...

If you are range shooting (as opposed to CCW where you would be wearing your normal glasses), consider having a special pair made up by your eye doctor:

- Safety lenses
- Safety frames with the side shields
- dominant eye - fixed focus lens set at your arm's length plus 10 inches
- non-dominant eye - normal progressive or bi / tri focal lens

I switched to these at the range, and it made a real difference in my accuracy - plus it was much more comfortable to shoot and to pickup the front sight.

You can still shift focus from reading to target with your non-dominant eye, while always finding the front sight in focus.
