Anybody have any experience with longer eye relief binoculars and eyeglasses? My aging eyes now have me wearing glasses full time for a few years now. I've never really had a great set of binoculars, and I don't know that I've ever really needed anything high-end. I've had my needs met with reasonably priced run of the mill binoculars, but not the cheapest thing you can buy. Now the ones that have worked fine for me in the past just have too small of an image, and don't really work well with glasses.
I primarily use these for deer hunting in Michigan. I don't plan on spending hours looking through them. I'm thinking my budgets probably around $200-300. I want something that's fairly compact to minimize the stuff I have to carry around bow hunting. I will end up leaving them in the truck if they are too big. I'm thinking probably something in 8 or 10 power. I recently purchased my first Leopold vx2 scope. I really like the image quality of that scope. I would like binoculars that are about that quality if possible. That's about the best reference I can give on image quality I would like if the price is reasonable.
I plan to look at what's available locally to try out, but I don't ever remember seeing much in the way of longer eye relief binoculars in the past. Maybe it's something certain models do better at than others, and I didn't know it.
I have looked around in a couple online sources like optic planet. There's an awful lot of options and it's difficult to work through all that. I'm thinking it might be easier to get some recommendations for well-known manufacturer and certain models that would fit my need rather than trying to Wade through 100 different options.
