[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 2119910, member: 385"] I find color to be more of a distraction than a help to attain a sharp sight picture. Could be that instead you need a pair of shooting-purpose glasses that will let your eyes sharply focus on the front sight. By sharp I mean able to see the lint down in the serrations of the front sight. If you already wear glasses or contacts, consider if you can see the front sight crisply with your head in a comfortable, proper shooting position. Good shooting glasses make all the difference. These shooting glasses need not be expensive. Simply use an "experienced" larger sized glasses frame you have stuck away in a drawer. Have your eye doc write a script for the distance from your eyes to the front sight of a typical handgun; about 30" for many. For a good safety/cost blend, consider OSHA rated "E" hard coated plastic lens. These are thicker than an ordinary plastic lens. I like a light amber tint for all around use. Put this new script into the entire dominant eye lens. Leave the non-dominant eye script with your normal everyday script, even if it includes a bifocal. This works well. [/QUOTE]
