Just had an eye exam and got a mild prescription. Don't need anything for close-up, reading, etc.... but they brighten things up for distance. Great for watching TV and driving.
I figure they would really brighten the woods up and be great for hunting. My question would be, do they reflect the sun and do deer spot them. I would think that two pieces of glass up in a tree would be easy to spot.
What's the deal? Do deer spot them?

They can reflect the sun as well as the frame also. I wear a camo net facemask that I position to cover the lenses almost all the way and a wide brimmed hat that helps keep the sun off of my face.

I use to wear glasses while hunting and the fogging up while looking threw my scope was always annoying.loseing your glasses in a tangle of snow and bush is no fun either

The only real problem is sun hitting them and reflecting. If you can avoid that, you will be OK. But then again, having yourself lit up like a neon sign when the sun hits you is bad in general, especially if you ground hunt.
