    That scope I linked you to has both diopter (reticle) focus and target focus (parallax adjustment).

    thos are the two most important aspects for seeing well through a magnified tube.

    I wore glasses for 25 years. I also shot and killed lots of critters with those thick glasses.

    i even did it when I was mostly blind.

    Well in that case, I can get a few $3K scopes before I get it done.

    btw, I'm glad all your eye stuff has worked out. You went through a lot, man.

    Finite Element Analysis while drafting for work is MUCH more enjoyable with a working knowledge of statics and dynamics.

    The beer might also be helping...
