[QUOTE="EyeDoc2020, post: 1940660, member: 104070"] I'm an ophthalmologist/cataract surgeon and deal with this all the time. He will do MUCH better with an optic than with open sights. With open sights you have 2 different focal planes that need to be used and it can be a struggle with a bifocal. In an optic situation you only have one focal plane to worry about and when dialed in correctly with the eyepiece focus. Any scope will work for him without issue and he can even dial the eyepiece focus in for use without glasses. A red dot or holographic sight will also work as they project your aim point to a distance focus. When he's older he can likely be fitted with a multifocal contact to get him out of the bifocal. I don't recommend contacts until they can care for them theirselves. Good luck and feel free to reach out to me if you have any more questions. [/QUOTE]
