That's because the correction lenses *add to* the finders existing
setting. I made this page quite some time ago for just the reasons you
detail regarding the Olympus finders and diopter correction lenses:

Subject: [OM] Wow! I need a +1 (diopter that is)
<snip>
Now that I know I need a +1 diopter correction; how do I get it?
According to the Oly table I need an Oly lens marked "-1" which is
actually a +1 lens.
Does anyone know the diameter of the eyecup 1 lenses? I much prefer the
cheap tear drop shaped third party eyecups which have provision for a
19mm or 3/4" diameter correction lens. Is this perhaps a standard size?
Does anyone know where to get suitable correction lenses without
custom cutting them out of a cheap pair of reading glasses? Anybody got
any to sell? Should I break down and get an OM-4Ti? :-)
