Susan,
I appreciate your insights, for those of us with less than perfect
sight. I've been trying to figure out a way to use my OM with Eyecup 1
and a correction lens.
AFAIK, the OM system only offered correction to -5 diopters. I tried
stacking a -5 and a -2 (sigh). This "worked", but the resulting stack
was too thick to allow the retainer to thread back on. Do you know of a
place that can grind an extreme prescription (about -7.5), and can these
use glass that will be thin enough to actually fit into eyecup 1?
Or, should I give up and go LASIK?
Thanks!
