The only reasons dots are blurry are if you have astigmatism or if you've got the dot intensity turned up too high for the ambient light.

I'm amazed at how many people have astigmatism and refuse to get glasses to correct it.
I wear glasses, latest prescriptions, and still have a slight astigmatism. And the dots are not turned up too brightly.

The cure I have found, is for the latest models of the Trijicon MRO.

If you have glasses and still have astigmatism, you need new glasses that are ground correctly to correct your astigmatism. I have it too but my glasses fix it just fine and have for over 30 years.

My glasses are new, no change. What works for you doesn't mean it will or could work for me. I'm okay with that actually. I'm better with just irons on my EDC anyway.

It doesn't matter what works for me or you.

What does matter is that if you have glasses to correct your astigmatism and they don't, you need new ones from a doctor who knows how to measure your astigmatism correctly.

Everyone's astigmatism is correctable, not just mine. You just have to get a doctor who knows what they're doing.
 
I just assumed all red dots where blurred. My astigmatism is somewhat corrected by my contacts but my Aimpoint is still not crisp. Learn something new everyday.

Thanks!!!

lol

And I'm going to tell you what matters is that you should not be so invested with arguing some random person over something that is in actuality, a worthless hill to lay on. And contrary to your feelings, not everyone's astigmatism can be corrected, for example if the cornea is too thin or the refractive error too high, which is the reality here. Please do your research before trying to pick fights with people that are not your enemy.

We are done, this case is now closed.

What is wild is that since I went to my last eye appointment I never knew I had one. Got my first prescription and it was like a whole new world. The red dot doesn't bother me though. The only red dot I have is a romeo 5 which is supposedly holosun posing as sig from what I heard.
 
Had a issue with my eyes at one time. I picked up a spade grip for my m4 and put a industrial green laser on it. Mounted it to a chair and just put the laser on what ever you want. Now I have eye surgery, don't need the set up anymore but it is fun.
 
I have astigmatism, the EOTech didn't work for me.. but the Holosun Acss red dot doesn't work for those with astigmatism.

I am using holosun 508T without a problem as an RMR
