Default Give me a reason for a lens??

i've heard many folks talk about lenses on their sites, but just wanted to see from real world experience what is the added benefit? I've always worried about glare.

For 3d, field and indoor spots they are good but for hunting forget them.

Plus with a lens you will need a clarifier peep if you go over 2x.

I know one person that uses onebut I definately don't reccommend it.

I didn't even like a lens for 3-d.

Weather is a factor. Hows the view through some bino's in the rain?
