Anyone else problems with contacts and seeing your sight pins?
 
I ask this because I have never noticed it in previous years? I just switched eye doctors and he made my prescription stronger. I wear them because i am unable to see long distances(not horribly bad)! I am getting ready to call the eye doctor and see whats up with it but hate to have to pay for another appointment! My insurance only covers one appointment a year i believe! IMO i think its either the new brand of junk contacts he sold me or my prescription is too strong! I ordered new contacts a couple weeks back before i started shooting and dont know if i should pick them up now or what?

What do you guys think? Anyone ever had this prob?

Most eyeball vets won't charge you for a follow up visit if you're having a problem with a new prescription. At least, that's the way it is in my neck of the woods. Call and tell them you're having problems with your vision. Get it checked out.

Got the same problem and there's really no cure. I'm bettin that you're over 40. My problem didnt show up till almost 50 but it came on quick. The eye doctor suggested a close vision lens on the right eye and a far vision lens on the left. (I'm right handed and right eye dominant) I tried it and went back to the lenses that fixed the far vision. Tried bifocals too and hated em. I decided I can cope with pins that are a little fuzzy but I want to see clearly when that buck twitches his tail in the brush 50 yards away.

Im 15 and have that problem if you go in ask your eye doctor about astigmatism. I think that is what I have its where your vision gets blury.
