    I was very short sighted (& had astigmatisms in each eye). I had to wear glasses from the age of 10 (30 now). 3 years ago I got laser eye surgery and have never looked back. I have excellent vision now and never have to worry about glasses again (until i get older?), if you are able to I recommend it done. Not cheap at $5.5k, but worth every penny.

    Before that, I had an old pair of thin wire framed glasses that I wore around camp to give my eyes a rest, but wore disposable contact lenses the rest of the time. Was a real bitch putting them in early in the mornings, and I was constantly squirting eye lubricant in during the day to stay off the dry eyes. It was manageable, but not ideal. Tried hunting with glasses alone, but they always fogged up and were annoying when glassing.

    Keep a quality lens cloth (or two) in your pockets so you can keep them clean/clear & maybe try contact lenses?

    my 2c anyway.
    Hunting is not a hobby.....its an addiction
