I've been debating which optic to buy for my AR. In the past, I used an Aimpoint Micro T2, and I struggled with all kinds of bloom or "starburst" effect as well as seeing multiple dots depending on the ambient light / brightness of the optic. Not only does my right eye have an astigmatism, but it's my non dominant eye.

I've been considering an EOTech, as the reticle is a bit easier for my eye to focus in on, but I've heard lots of complaints with them and it's not going to completely remedy my issues with the astigmatism. Another option would be a prism or variable 1-6x scope. I've found the more reasonably priced variable scopes like the Vortex Strike Eagle to have a frustratingly long and narrow window for eye relief, and it starts getting extremely expensive (outside of my 1000 dollar budget) for good quality glass.

Anyone here have a similar issue, and if so, what optic did you find was the best solution?
