I know that it’s often hard to search the exact topic you need, but we have had a number of threads addressing in this topic here. At least once or twice a year. Bottom line in all this is that once you get your scope(s) set up right for glasses, assuming you don’t have other major issues like
@8pointer, you will shoot just fine with glasses.
As said above, controlling parallax is important, though I think it just manifests more with glasses and some people without glasses are missing this point at times. The other very important part when using glasses is to make sure that your diopter is set correctly in your scope(s).
I have progressive trifocals and have used glasses my whole life, so for me there was no option. I just learned how to make it work for me and moved on. A couple of hints to make scope setup easier:
- Depending upon how low your current scope is on the rifle, you may benefit from a set of higher scope rings/mount. Many shooters have a really low cheek mount on the rifle and squash their head down to get a sight picture.
- Don’t be afraid to raise up that scope and your cheek rest a bit. Get a more square relationship between your scope and your eyes so that you don’t have to look through the topmost portion of you lenses all of the time.
- Depending upon the scope lens prescription, diopter setting can sometimes be tricky at first and it could take you a couple trips to get the diopter adjusted just right for your eye, eyeglass, scope combination. Steiner scopes gave me a fit at first, but once I got the diopter right, all was good with the world.
- Like all other system setups, with glasses or without, get your rifle set up properly to ensure that every time you get on glass the picture is just right without having to play turtle to get a good sight picture.
Other than that, make the change you know is right and get out there and shoot with it. Adjust if needed and get out and shoot again. Don’t look back and don’t search unnecessarily for complicated solutions that aren’t really needed. Oh, and as much as I like the ESS offerings, their prescription setup was much more annoying than helpful to me. I went back to my everyday glasses and have been fine since.
