After seventeen years in disposable contacts, now that I've started occasionally wearing glasses with binoculars, using them together seems surprisingly unnatural and difficult, which is probably normal at first with something one is unaccustomed to, and I should adjust over time.
Tips?
Also, surprisingly I expected with glasses to use the eyecups fully collapsed, but I actually have to use the third click out (pictured) with glasses because with the eye cups fully collapsed, my eyes are too close on my Noctivids with 19mm of eye relief. That also makes me wonder if my old pair of UVHD+ 7x42's with 17mm of eye relief would of been more convenient for me (but Chil6x6 and Anthon both praised the Noctivid eye relief on another thread, and I should heed their experience I am sure).
