Fortunately, My eyes are still pretty good, but for those that have a hard time sighting with bifocals etc, these are reported to help. It is basically a ghost ring set for handguns. Claims to not interfere with holstering, handling, etc. This guy makes them for rugers and winchesters. oneraggedhole.com/$24.95

The problem of sighting with bifocals has been addressed several times on this forum. I have been having good success with the following set-up: the right eye is set for best clarity at the distance of the sight. The left eye is a normal bifocal; reading distance on bottom and far distance on the top. I wear these all of the time. It takes about 3 or 4 days to get used but after that it provides the best overall vision (in my opinion) and is great for shooting. I think this is called monovision and is more often done with contacts (one near and one far).

A few years ago I had a set of shooting glassses made, having my dominant eye lense ( Right in my case) focused on the front sight ,same as my bi-focals but with full magnification. The left eye lense was left at normal, which I can easily use to pick up the target at longer distances. One device, called the farsighter, and another, called the Merit Deluxe Optical Attachment, uses the same principals as a Camera lense and peep sight in producing a stronger depth of focus for the eye to recieve a clear picture of the target and front sight at long distances.
