Hello, I am looking to buy some 15- 18x binos, but I also wear glasses most of the time. From what I've gathered, glasses wearers often have trouble with the field of view when the eye relief is 15 mm or less. I found some older threads on this exact issue, but was hoping maybe some different users would see this post.
I was hoping to buy the best binos I could get between $1000-1500. Here are some examples of the eye relief from a quick search
Meostars 15x 15mm
Swarvo SLC 16x 16mm
Vortex Razor UHD 18x 18mm
The Meopta Meostars were the perfect price and had great reviews. I had my heart set on these, but the eye relief now seems to be an issue. A lot of options are out of my price range, unless I can find used. The Vortex Razor UHD are 18x, I think I'd prefer 15x, and are a little more than I'd like to spend. I believe they are newer, so I feel like the odds of finding a used pair may be slim. If anyone has any suggestions or first hand glasses experience, please let me know.
Thanks!
