I am 70 and must use eye drops twice a day for glaucoma. I have corrected vision and wear glasses, not contacts. Yesterday, for the first time, I played a silouette shooting game. "Lollipops" (4") were at 45 yards. "Animals" were as far back as 70 yards. My first session of around 20 rounds was 8:00 A.M. and that was my best, in terms of hits. In the second session, I began to experience more fuzziness and could not see the front sight. Blacking the front sight helped a little. By the third session it was past noon and I believe that the changing light on my sight was also hurting my ability to align the sights, even though the firing line is under cover.
What color should I paint the front sight to help me see it more clearly? The revolver is a 1968 Blackhawk .357 with 6 1/2" barrel. I also may try my Colt 1911A1.
During the session, I use artificial tears to keep my eyes moist. I also drink water throughout.
I like the game and would like to fire more than 20 round on an outing.
