Hello, As my Post Title, Many scope diopters eg The + and - have a limited function and to some that may mean using glasses or not get 100% clarity, One one of my Hawke day scopes (oldy) is like this and not wanting to wear glasses shooting i came up with this Idea using a small Camera magnification lens on the eye piece ( Taped On ) They are called Macro Close Up Lenses and come in strengths of Plus 1 / 2 /4 /8 /10 and for my Hawke scope one of 37mm Diameter 4 X taped on as described i could put the Diopter setting back and get a very clear view through scope, I have one in rubber eye cap on my cheap night vision spotter, and a Pard 019 ( 49mm O/D ) it will work on a Pard 007, And i have tried one on my Pixfra Thermal and that works to but need be careful how you attach , for now Blue Tack, These Lenses are not expensive to buy single or a set of 4/5 , With the Thermal i took the glass out of the metal ring and with some Blue Tack placed in sided the eye cup pressed in the Lens, This may not suite every Thermal Monocular or be an Ideal way for some but Thomas Jacks said using Blue Tack would not affect Warranty and it is only an experiment on my Pixfra, Hoping this may help, Any questions just ask, Cheers
