It’s already been explained that the glasses cannot have magnification, so what advantage do you think they offer when looking through iron sights?

And also that theyre prescription…

And 20/20 isn’t “perfect” vision, it’s perfectly average.

So someone can get glasses to improve their vision (especially at a certain distance) to better than 20/20 and have an advantage.

While still not having magnification.

Do you think glasses that help you see further are working via magnification?

The point is that there’s nothing further to see beyond a tiny solid black dot.

You really don’t see how vision is important in marksmanship?

Nobody said anything about 20/20 vision.

Improving your vision means being able to differentiate details better. Magnification means that you can make something look bigger.

Having a prescription glasses that adds detail but not magnification means that the small target will still look just as small to you as it would to a person with perfectly healthy vision. How do you think this gives them an advantage over someone with normal vision?
