    Does anyone else have problems clearly viewing the Eotech reticle while wearing shooting glasses. Are there any glasses that will not interfere with utilizing this site?

    Just wondering. Had to do some squinting at the range today, and this was my first time usin an Eotech as well.

    How bright do you have your reticle? It tends to bloom a bit more when it's at or near maximum brightness.

    To properly see an EOTech reticle, one must focus on the target. If you look 'at' the reticle, it will go grainy. It's a 'heads up' device - keep your eye on the target and it should be better looking. Also, if the brightness is too high, it will be difficult to see clearly.

    I had thought it was just the glasses. Did some shooting outdoors yesterday and everything was good to go. Indoor at the range, different story. I will try your suggestions next time out. Thank you!

    Also don't forget that you see the reticle as if its far away so if you wear glasses, you need to wear them when using the eotech.

    If I don't have glasses I only see a red ball of fuzz.
