Great Optic for price I have two, but my damn astigmatism, makes the red dot look like a bunch of grapes ugh...
I must have the same thing...My StrikeFire II looks like a sideways arrow...
Ironically, a CheapO $20 Tasco red dot looks perfect...
My dad helped me put a Tasco on my BB gun. I think I was 11.

If the dot of your riflescope doesn't look perfectly round, the distortion may be caused by the way your eye perceives the dot—making the dot appear misshapen. This is called astigmatism. Most everyone has some degree of natural astigmatism. Here are a few ways to tell if the distortion you are seeing is caused by your eyes or is a problem with the scope:
Look through the scope with your other eye. If the dot changes shape from one eye to the other, the misshapen dot is likely caused by astigmatism.
Look through the scope and rotate the scope on its optical axis. If the irregular shape maintains its position, it's probably because of how your eyes are seeing the dot. If the irregular shape of the dot rotates with the scope, there may be a problem with the scope.
Try photographing the dot. Close the objective flip cover of the scope, place the lens of a digital camera up against the eyepiece of the scope, and take a photo of the dot. Compare the photo with what you are seeing through the scope. If the shape is the same as what you are seeing through the scope, the scope may be defective.
Going to try these suggestions out.
Thanks.
I keep my on the lowest brightness setting, but turning it up, does indeed, make it worse, for me.
