Got new prescription lens for my glasses. Now my Leopold scope is now a little fuzzy when I sighted in. How do I clear it up. Something to do with the back lens? Will it screw up my zero?

It shouldn't move the zero,just focus it with the back lens. Scopes vary but there should be a locking ring in front of the rear bell or there's a ring on the back of the bell to adjust it. Just depends on the scope,I have both kinds.

Got it moved and a lot better. Thanks Getting old is not fun. Eye dr said I need bi focals to help with reading. Must have been a jump in prescription this time. Ugh

I use reading glasses to see clearly up close and if I forget and try looking through my scopes with them on they're always blurry because I've got them all adjusted without them on. Yes getting old sucks,I figure it won't be long before I need glasses too.

Buying new bifocals is also expensive. I have to wear reading glasses to read a book and see things up close. But after laser cataract surgery I can see 20/20 at distance. But I also need reading glasses to see the computer screen. So I have to different pair of reading glasses. One for books and the other less powerful for the computer screen and shooting a pistol. Luckily I can still shoot my AR15 with the EOTech without glasses. It's focused at infinity where I can see good.

Ugh This thread reminds me that I need to make an appointment with my eye doctor in January. I have bi-focals and usually when I do close work or read I just remove my glasses. Yes getting older is not fun at all.

Don't know where you old farts buy your glasses at, but I get mine on line from Zeni Optical. I go through glasses like toilet paper. I used to go to the eye doctor at Walmart or the local Lens Crafters. The last pair of no line progressive lens bifocals I got there cost me close to 500 bucks. I was told about this place having cheap glasses and thought I would see how it worked buying glasses on line. It was very easy and the most they have cost me from Zeni is 135 bucks for pretty well the same I got from Walmart and the expensive glasses didn't last any longer than the cheap ones. I have now bought 5 pairs from them without any problems and need to make it six since the ones I have now are scratched up bad. The only down fall is it does take up to 2 weeks to get them. www.zennioptical.com/?gclid=CjwKEAiAsMXBBRD71KWOh6fcjRwSJAC5CNE1AXrGWym2e-TQdiUlaTciIXDkMvfWv1ly8uWHWhqOfRoCKgLw_wcB

Like ms660 I've bought a pair of eyeglasses from Walmart vision center and they aren't all that great + savings are not that much. I have two pair of glasses both the same prescription but I see better out of one pair better than the other, which both are bifocals. I don't like plastic lenses so both pairs are high impact glass. When I go to have my eye exam by an M.D. and if I need a prescription change I am going to buy the best brand of glass available.
