Bgfisher and oldreloader, When you buy reading glasses what level of magnification do you get....1.25, 1.50 or 1.75?
My regular glasses are carrying a +2.00, but I'm about to go to a +2.250. I can get alng with a +1.75 working on the computer.
When I got my Verifier lens a few years ago the lowest diopter was a #6. It was still a little too much. I haven't used it for a couple years and my eyes have changed (for the worse) so now it might work now. I just got a new bow a couple days ago so now I can try it out.
Another reason it didn't work so well is that I got the Super Hunter model because that's the only peep that handled the 1/4" lens and it has an angle of 37 degrees which was too acute for my string angle. Again, I now have a bow that is shorter so it might work. If it doesn't then I'll get the hooded Ball Peep with a 42 degree angle and try that.
This is why I say that you need to try these things at a shop. The peeps themselves come in 45, 42, and 37 degree angles. Depending on your draw length and A2A of the bow you have to choose the right peep angle. With something like a 29" draw and short bow you may need one with a sharper angle so it's perpendicular to your eye at full draw.
I hope this is clear to you. I'm trying to give you information you can use so you look at all your options.
